Can I still send the fax documents when the recipient is offline?

Question: Can I still send the fax documents when the recipient is offline?
I just want to make sure that the fax documents that I want to send will be delivered without a problem.


No, it won’t even pass.

When you say offline you mean their fax machine is off right?
You can call them to make sure the fax is on, and then call to confirm they got it.


In a traditional way, you cannot send fax documents if their fax machines are offline. Today, the evolution of web based faxing makes it possible to send fax documents even the recipient is offline.


Hi Dwight,

I think you might be referring to them having an online fax and their computer being offline?
If you are, no sweat. The fax will be delivered to their email no problem.

If they have a fax modem and are trying to receive your fax to their computer, that is another story. It will really depend on their configuration and the software that they are using.

Often times people that are using a fax modem share the same line with their telephone. The detection as to whether the incoming call is a phone or a fax is handled by a. the computer or b. an external switching box.

If the switching in this case is handled by the computer, then no…they would not get the fax.

If you are getting a long high pitched tone when you are dialing their number, chances are pretty good they will get the fax at some point.


No, you can’t.


You cannot send a fax to a fax machine that is disconnected, offline or deactivated. But with an internet fax service the recipient will surely any fax you will send them.

FAQ: How do I send a fax to a toll free number? 1-866-000-000?

Q&A: How do I send a fax to a toll free number? 1-866-000-000?
The number begins with 1-866 but I keep receiving a error and it cant be sent and has to be in chronological order. How can I send this fax using this number using Windows Fax and Scan?
This is the fax number, I also tried to call this number from the landline phone and I can hear the fax sounds so the number does work. I just need to know how should I format the number in the send to tab?


Call the number and ask what their fax number is.


can you ask with photocopiers.


If it’s a good fax number it should work but you could try putting a comma – , – after the 1. This is a pause command so the fax will wait about 1 second for each comma you put in. It gives the phone system time to reach the long distance circuits. You shouldn’t need it but it’s worth a try.


The key words are: using Windows fax and scan

Have you sent a fax before? Is the PC connected to a phone line?
If you expect the fax to be send over the Internet, then that’s probably where your problem is.

FAQ: How to send a fax to a fax machine using Word 2007?

fax

Q&A: How to send a fax to a fax machine using Word 2007?
When I am sending a word document by fax everything goes on fine but at the end I am getting a message “No dial tone was detected. The phone line is either busy or not connected to the computer.” Does that mean that I cannot send a fax message to a fax machine?


Typically “no dial tone detected” means that there is no phone line connected to the modem in your computer (since you get this particular message, I’m going on the assumption that you have fax software installed on your PC that uses the PC’s fax/modem to send faxes). If that assumption is correct, then make sure the phone line is connected to the modem.

PS – If this is something you do more than a few times a month, I recommend you look at an online efax service. I was using a fax modem in my PC until about two years ago. Long story short, I tried a few services and settled on FaxLogic’s “Personal Fax Machine” service. It does not require a phone line or a modem, works 24/7 without my computer being on or plugged into the line, and lets me fax to/from my PC (laptop, actually) and to/from my standard Brother all-in-one (for faxing paper documents). At /month, it’s a bargain.

PPS – The Microsoft link I sent you talks about Windows Fax and Scan for Windows 7 (older versions of Windows have this feature, too, but Google to find the specific documentation). This option, which may be what you already have, may be a fine solution if you have infrequent faxing needs and you have a phone line available to you.


Hi,

Yes, you cannot do that because it seems that there is no modem connected to the PC.

I would suggest you to switch to an internet fax service provider which is much easier to use, no modem, no phone line…all you need is a PC and internet connection.
They usually provide a print-to-fax software that allows user to print their document DOC, XLS, image, PDF, Open Office, etc to any fax machine.

For that you will need a subscription for these service.

Fax Service: just bought a new printer with a fax try to send a fax?
did’nt work do i need to install second phone line for fax to work


If you have DSL, make sure you don’t have a phone filter on the line you connected to the fax. The phone filter blocks all digital coding, computer or fax.

If you’re on dial-up and the computer and fax are daisy chained together, you can’t fax while being online.

Also, make sure that the phone line is plugged into the right port. Most fax machines have two jacks- one to connect a telephone and one to connect the printer to the wall jack

Hi, you may google and search some online fax service. However, if the faxing takes a great part in your business, I think it is better to use some fax software, using your fax number. In my experience, I just get everything smooth with Joyfax server. You may have a try if you wish.

If someone asks you to fax them your Money Gram receipt of payment, is it a scam? What’s safest way to send $?

fax price

My Question: If someone asks you to fax them your Money Gram receipt of payment, is it a scam? What’s safest way to send $?
I found a really great place to stay in NYC for the holidays at a very low price on Craigslist. The guy wants me to pay him via MoneyGram, which I’m skeptical about since I’ve never used it before, and I’m not too comfortable with sending $ 1130 cash, either. Also, he wants me to fax him the receipt after I’ve made the payment. Is this safe? What’s on the receipt? What’s a safer/safest way to make the rent payment?


Reputable people do not use MoneyGram. Scam artists love to use Moneygram because it is an easy way to steal money without leaving a paper trail. Insist on paying by check or forget it. Better yet, just forget it. The fact that he has suggested using MoneyGram makes it highly likely that he is a con artist.

See these warnings at the MoneyGram site:
