Your question is unclear. If you have a single phone line, it can only be used for one thing at a time... you can talk on the phone, or send/receive fax data, not both (if you have "call waiting", switching from the fax to a call will disrupt the fax). If you have multiple lines, it depends on your fax machine, but in most cases you still wouldn't be able to send or receive a fax and talk on the phone at the same time. However, if you have a combination fax machine/phone, usually you CAN pick up the handset if a voice call comes in, even if the machine is set to default to fax mode.
To print to a fax machine wirelessly from a mobile phone: you would need a fax machine (or multifunction) with wifi capability. The drivers (or app) would be on the phone, and you could fax from the phone that way. This depends on the technology that both your phone and fax machine have. To fax from a mobile phone: there are services called "online fax" services that will let you send or receive faxes from a phone or computer. To fax wirlessly from a fax machine through a cell phone: this technology isn't on the market, however there are "GSM faxes" that can operate off of a cell phone signal.
As a fax machine is connected to the phone line, provided the fax machine has the option (not all fax machine have a phone/numeric keypad) one can simply lift the phone and press the keypad just as a normal phone.
This is one disadvantage of using fax machine, you cannot receive a fax when your phone is off hook. Unless you have a dedicated phone line for the fax machine alone. Internet fax on the other hand does not require a dedicated phone line and a fax machine. All fax documents are sent over the internet connection, which means you can send and receive faxes anytime and anywhere.
An online fax sends the fax over the internet instead of using phone lines. There's no phone line required, a reduction in phone costs, no hardware or software needed.
most fax machines have two plug sockets on the back, one for the phone line the other for connecting the phone. Just plug the phone into the fax machine.
On any fax machine, you can use it while there is a phone attached / thetherd to it. On some fax machines (very few models) you can talk on the phone then fax when you're ready to fax. For this feature, the fax machine on the other end would need the feature as well.
You need to install a VoIP phone system with supported fax feature.
You connect the fax machine to the phone line - the same type of phone line that the phone is connected to. If you want to use the same phone jack, you may need to either get a phone line splitter, or some phones have an "extension" so that another line can be added to a phone.
Yes, the majority of faxing is sent through phone lines.
Connect the fax with a regular phone line to a phone jack in the wall. The type of cable is called an RJ11 cable, and it should connect both to the fax machine and to the phone outlet in the wall.
no need. As long as your phone is a fax phone, ie with fax function. 1 line will do. But the line must be voice & data line. But you can do 1 task at a time only ie. voice or data.
It is because you are using 1 line. Shared line of phone and fax. Fax should have a different phone. or you can use splitter.
