Typically it means that there is a problem with the fax machine's phone connection.
It can be a line that doesn't have a dial tone, that has too much static on the phone line (or someone is using the phone line), or it can be a general problem with the phone line.
The best way to test it is to make sure that your phone line is operating correctly, then make sure that your fax is correctly connected.
To send a fax with a smartphone, there are applications on the market that will let you send - it is called an "online fax" account. If you already have a fax machine, some models have wifi on them, that will allow you to send a document from a smartphone (or laptop) via wifi, and the fax machine can then send the transmission through the phone line.
Yes, the majority of faxing is sent through phone lines.
it depends on your fax machine. Each error code is different for each manufacturer. On a Toshiba fax machines and related technology, it means that your machine encountered a busy signal when trying to dial to send the fax.
No but you can use the send to fax function most computers have buy you need plugged into the phone line.
Phone is to call, send and receive message. Fax is to send and receive sensitive file.Internet can be a phone and a fax or both at the same time. Internet can deliver and receive messages anywhere and anytime as long as internet is present.
It the computer is on the same line as the fax machine then no. The fax machine will dial the receivers number to ask for the fax receiver to allow it to send. as you are sending on the same line you'll probably get an engaged tone
Maybe its a technical error with the machine, or it could be an error in the phone lines involved in communication with the other machine.
Use to send and receive online fax.
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.
No, unless it is a home phone/fax machine; it will only read it out loud.
On a fax report, ECM stands for "Error Correction Mode."
Put a piece of paper in the proper position on the fax machine. Then dial the phone number you want to send the fax to. Then when you hear the continuous beeping sound, press the SEND button. That's it.
