Internet faxing

Article Abstract:

Internet faxing is a relatively new technology, with its main advantage, according to manufacturers, being the potential cost savings. However, a primary disadvantage is the unreliability of Internet access and it is not ideal for time-sensitive applications. Data security is another possible problem, although manufacturers claim the Internet is as secure as telephone lines.

Faxes and computers

Article Abstract:

Modern facsimile machines can be linked up to a microcomputer using appropriate software that also allows it to function as a printer and scanner. The simplest way of using PC-fax is through a fax card and modem, allowing fax messages to be sent directly to the PC. There is growing interest in Local Area Network (LAN) fax machines for sending computer-generated documents.
