A major barrier to this, however, is fax as a practice remains important. The result is businesses are looking for options to send fax without a fax machine. This may sound like a wild notion, but with eFax, it isn\u2019t.<\/p><p class=\"font-bold\"><strong>How to Send a Fax without a Fax Machine<\/strong><\/p><p>Contrary to what you might believe, fax doesn\u2019t actually require a fax machine.

It would seem bizarre then, for modern businesses to have such technology in the workplace. In an age of automation, smart technology, and increased computing power, using analogue hardware that shares files over copper phone lines would appear to be akin to using a gramophone to play music instead of an iPod.<\/p><p>So, you keep your fax machine.<\/p><p>But that creates more problems. For small businesses, fax machines are often a major irritation. They\u2019re expensive to upkeep, require active phone lines, and take up office space. For businesses in general, fax machines are woefully inefficient for work, due to signal problems, constant absorption of resources, immobility, and the fact they are only usable by one individual at a time. Fax machines also present a litany of data security issues, starting at simple missending of information right down to opening\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.checkpoint.com\/2018\/08\/12\/faxploit-hp-printer-fax-exploit\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">IT network weaknesses<\/a>\u00a0that allow your entire computer system to be hacked. Add on top of this, the upcoming\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ww2.efax.com\/uk\/isdn-switch-off-solutions\">ISDN switch off<\/a>, and you\u2019ll find all the hardware will eventually become obsolete in the UK.<\/p><p>So \u2014 you don\u2019t keep your fax machine?<\/p><p>That seems to be the obvious answer given the scale of the problems. But then, how do you fax without a fax machine? Actually, it\u2019s not as difficult as you might think.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b167375 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b167375\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How Does eFax Work to Send a Fax without a Fax Machine?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-99d2c30 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"99d2c30\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Fax is a new fax technology. It does one very simple thing, and it does it very well: it allows you to send and receive fax documents. But eFax isn\u2019t hardware \u2014 it isn\u2019t a fax machine. eFax is a software solution accessed via your computer or smartphone. It\u2019s essentially faxing on a digital device. We call it cloud faxing, online faxing, or digital faxing.<\/p><p>But how does that work if fax is a paper file sent using a fax machine and printed by another fax machine?<\/p><p>Well, that isn\u2019t what fax is. A fax is a document sent in visual form. Often fax will contain a signature or some legally binding element unsuitable for other platforms like email. That, however, doesn\u2019t mean it has to be a hard paper copy. Visual files exist on computers in the form of Jpegs, PDFs, PNGs, and other image formats. These visual files can contain all the information of a paper copy, without the actual paper, which means they can be sent electronically without a fax machine. And, thanks to the eIDAS regulations put forward by the EU that qualify some forms of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Qualified_electronic_signature\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">electronic signature<\/a>\u00a0as legally binding, you now don\u2019t need a fax machine to send a legally binding fax document.<\/p><p>eFax presents your business with a solution to paper fax by allowing you to send digital fax. But that doesn\u2019t solve all the problems you might have. What about those businesses that still use fax machines?<\/p><p>Digital fax is not just a system of sending a computer file to another computer. With eFax, you can still maintain connectivity to fax machine hardware. It works very simply. You send a fax document using your online fax service. eFax then takes the digital document you\u2019ve sent (PDF, Jpeg, etc.) and converts it to a format readable by an old-fashioned fax machine. The fax machine then prints it as if sent by another fax machine. You don\u2019t need a fax machine anymore, even if your clients\/customers still use one. This system also works in reverse. So if you receive a physical fax, the eFax system converts it to a digital format readable by your device.<\/p><p>It\u2019s intuitive, easy-to-use, and doesn\u2019t require any additional input from your business. The system is entirely automated.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f9fc962 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f9fc962\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">How to Send a Fax without a Fax Machine<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-50f425c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"50f425c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Sending a fax without a fax machine couldn\u2019t be easier. You don\u2019t need any training or tutorials, or new hardware to make it work. eFax is available on any device you currently own that can connect to an internet browser \u2014 so that\u2019s phones, tablets and computers.<\/p><p>But then what?<\/p><p>Sign in to your account after starting your subscription with us. Then, you go to our fax management portal and start writing your message. You upload your fax as an attachment, just as you would an email. The file can be one that already exists digitally, or you can capture it using a camera or scanner. If you need to sign the document, our e-signature tool helps you do that too. Then all you have to do is put in the recipient&#8217;s fax number and send.<\/p><p>That\u2019s it.<\/p><p>You\u2019ve got rid of your fax machine, cut out all the negative consequences of owning the hardware, and sent fax digitally. You can even send a fax through email systems, such as Gmail or Outlook. All you have to do is write your message as an ordinary email with attachments. Then, instead of an email address, you add the recipient&#8217;s fax number alongside an exclusive eFax email domain address. The email will be sent through our systems, converted to a fax and sent to whoever it needs to reach. You can also link up your fax number to your email, so any fax sent comes through to your email \u2014 making it easy to track all your digital correspondence from one location.<\/p><p>Starting sending fax without a fax machine today.
