Sending a fax via a fax machine requires being connected to an active phone line. After all, a fax machine needs a wired connection to transmit a scanned document. The receiver’s fax machine will automatically print the fax and make copies if necessary. However, the fax may fail to transmit due to errors in the phone connection.
Depending on the fax machine model, a receiver may manually answer the fax or set it to answer faxes automatically after two to three rings. If this is the case, then there’s no need to pick up the call. The machine will automatically receive and print the documents, starting with the cover page.
Advancements in technology have made it possible for multifunction printers to send and receive faxes. Some all-in-one printers also come with a fax modem and software that you can use to send faxes at high data transmission rates. You can also set these multifunction printers to print faxes at ultra-high quality, which is great for sending documents with charts, diagrams, and other detailed graphics.
iFax offers an effortless way to fax. With our online fax service, you can send and receive faxes without a fax machine or a phone line. There’s even no need for dedicated software or a fax modem. With iFax, you can fax documents from anywhere, using any device with an internet connection. You can fax from your computer, laptop, tablet, and cell phone. You can also sync your faxes across different platforms.
The process is similar to sending an email, but instead of providing your recipient’s email address, you send the fax online to your receiver’s fax number. It’s a convenient and secure way to send and receive documents. Aside from having the freedom to fax from any device, you can also protect sensitive documents by encrypting them with 256-bit encryption.
There’s no need for complex wire setups and software installation. It’s up to you to install the iFax app on your mobile or desktop or stick to the web version. You can easily keep track of all incoming and outgoing faxes via real-time email alerts. iFax makes it possible to store, access, and manage your documents in the cloud.
A failed fax transmission means lost time and effort. Imagine needing to fax an important document only to get a transmission error. By sending a test fax, you can figure out whether your fax machine is working or if there’s something wrong with your landline connection.
Sending a test fax also allows you to check your machine’s status. You can send a test fax right after troubleshooting to verify that the issue has been fixed. It also helps you determine whether your fax machine’s printer is printing properly and if there are any paper jams in the ADF (automatic document feeder).
If you know someone with a fax machine, you can ask to send a test fax to that fax number. If not, you can also refer to your machine’s official guide. Since fax machines vary by brand and model, they may require specific guidelines for sending test faxes. You can also send a test fax to the following numbers:
HP Test Fax Service: 1-888-HPFAXME (1-888-473-2963)
Canon Test Fax Number: 1-855-FX-CANON (1-855-392-2666)
Brother Test Fax Number: 1-877-268-9575
To send a test fax to any of these numbers, you need to do the following:
With iFax, sending a test fax is more convenient. You can instantly know if you’ve successfully sent a test fax since the app will mark your fax message as “delivered.”
The time it takes to send and receive faxes on a machine usually depends on the brand and model. In the 1920s, it took about six minutes to send a single-page fax. Since then, faxing has evolved and continues to adapt. Today, it takes only a few seconds to fax a single page. The Canon FAX-L3000, for example, can send a single-page fax in just three seconds. It’s a remarkable improvement, especially considering how long it takes to fax using an older fax machine.
With iFax, you can send and receive faxes online without any delay. Once you click the send button, our internet-based fax service will securely send your message via an encrypted connection.
Since you’re sending faxes over the internet, the faxing time for each fax may vary. Some factors may also affect your fax transmission speed, such as the type of document you’re faxing and the rate of communication over a data channel. On average, faxing over the internet takes about one minute for a single page. The transmission time may also change when sending fax documents in large volumes.
Still, you can rest easy. After sending a fax, our fax service will immediately notify you about your document’s estimated delivery time.
