Receiving and Sending Faxes Using a Fax Machine

In order to use a fax machine with the AccessLine Home Office Phone service, you need to purchase the optional fax line service. To send and receive faxes using your fax machine, plug the phone cord from your fax machine into the port marked PHONE 2 on the back of the VoIP Phone Adapter. The fax machine must be plugged directly into the Phone Adapter, and cannot be connected to your router or LAN.

To send a fax, simply use your fax machine as you would with a landline phone service.

NOTE: Your voice line can also receive and store faxes for you through your Home Office Phone Number. For more information see Receiving Faxes with the next section.
