Eliminating a business' dependency on paper faxes is one of the most important benefits of migrating from the old-fashioned fax machine technology to the modern cloud-based faxing solution. But, what if, sometimes you still need to go traditional and send and receive paper faxes?
With the FAX.PLUS MFP Integration feature you can benefit from all the features of a cutting-edge cloud-based faxing solution, while still being able to send and receive paper faxes using your networked multi-function printer.
How to integrate your networked MFP to FAX.PLUS
To start integrating make sure you already have
- An active FAX.PLUS account (sign up for free).
- An internet-connected multi-function printer that can send and receive email.
- Set up the scan to email feature on your MFP and set the outgoing email address on your all-in-one printer device the same as your FAX.PLUS username.
- Added your printer’s unique email address as one of the fax recipients in your FAX.PLUS account (Learn how).
To send a fax from your all-in-one printer:
- Open the scanner lid on your MFP and scan the document(s) you wish to fax
- Choose the Email option (based on the model of your all-in-one printer, the name may vary)
- Type the destination’s fax number (along with the country and area code) followed by @fax.plus (example: +16692001010@fax.plus) as the recipient’s email address
- Your fax is sent as an email through your MFP via FAX.PLUS.
To receive paper fax on your all-in-one printer, since you have already added your printer’s unique email address as one of the fax recipients, all your incoming faxes will be automatically printed, and there is no extra step needed to be taken.
