The WinFax printer add failed. Error code ->1797, 1930, or 126 November 22nd, 2009
WinFax printer add failed. Error code ->1797 or 126 and other error codes.
If you are experiencing errors installing the WinFax printer driver, such as Error Code ->1797 or Error Code->126 you may have problems with the WinFax driver files.
Symantec has a list of troubleshooting steps here, but we’ve found these are usually not always effective in solving this problem (and is very time consuming, a reinstall is usually not required).

WinFax PRO and TalkWorks PRO requires a Windows compatible operating system such as Windows 9x, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Windows XP, that will support Kernel Mode (Type 2) printer drivers. Microsoft VISTA and Windows 7 do not support Kernel Mode printer drivers. While Windows 2003 does support kernel mode printers, they are blocked by default. Windows 2003 requires a policy change to allow for Kernel mode printer driver installation. You must disallow Kernel Mode blocking in Windows 2003 before you can install the WinFax printer drivers.

There’s a lot of confusion regarding the compatibility of Microsoft Vista or Microsoft Windows 7 and WinFax PRO. Part of the confusion is that you can install WinFax on a Windows 7 or Vista installation, and you can send a cover page. See the following links regarding the full details on WinFax compatibility with Microsoft Vista or Windows 7.

WinFax PRO and Microsoft Vista compatibility November 29th, 2008
Symantec quietly discontinued its sales and distribution of WinFax PRO 10 in June of 2006. A few years after the product has been discontinued there are thousands of WinFax PRO users out there. The reason for the longevity of this product is because there is nothing out there that can can match its capabilities, ease of use, and low price. While its true that fax isn’t as popular as it once was 10 or more years ago, its still widely used by many businesses and individuals out there.
