Fax to Email
Fax to Email
Fax to email is a way to use your email account to send and receive faxes - without needing a fax machine. When you send a fax to email it arrives in your inbox much like an email message. Like an email message you can organize your faxes into folders, forward them, or print them. You have one place to store all your faxes. One reason fax to email services are growing for businesses is lower costs, easy accessibility, convenience, and efficiency.
Your Computer is your Fax Machine
There is no need to buy a fax machine with a fax to email service. That eliminates the need for paper, toner, and fax machine maintenance. Instead you can pay a monthly fee and keep track of your faxes in one place that you can access anywhere you can get online.
You don't have to wait in line to use the fax machine, or wait to make sure your fax was transmitted. Just check your inbox. Your faxes will have a subject line saying, "your fax from ###." If a fax doesn't get transmitted you'll get an email saying "fax failed." Faxes you receive come as PDF files which you can view and print directly from your computer.
