WinXP FAX Console - FAX Modem Question

I'm a telecommuter for a publishing company, and prefer receiving
faxes through the PC, rather than my dedicated fax machine. This is
especially important when one receives a number of junk faxes on a
daily basis!

I've used WinXP Fax Console before, and it meets my basic needs
without installing a 3rd party software application. My question
relates to the actual internal PCI modem card. I've been looking at
the Multi-Tech MultiModem ZPX V.92 internal controller-based modem
which supports 33.6 FAX. This is one of the few affordable cards that
do support speeds above 14.4, and from what I've read, the card is an
excellent card - superior to the USR 5610 FAX modem, or even the older
USR V.Everything modems.

Here's my question: the Multi-Tech is available in a TAPI-compliant
version (Data/Fax/Voice) and a non-TAPI version (Data and Fax only).
Does WinXP Fax Console require the use of a TAPI modem, or will it
work with a non-TAPI compliant modem, i.e. one that doesn't support
voice features? I never intend to use the voice features of the
modem, or even the data features as I'm not on dial-up anymore - only
the Fax features.

Thanks,
Don
