How Technology Created Paperless Faxing

By James Hodges


Today, paperless faxing is widely gaining acceptance just like the email over-powering postal mail. A regular fax machine falls short when compared to the high quality characteristics of paperless faxing. Imagine how many reams of paper can be preserved on a daily basis if paperless faxing is adopted and the ordinary fax machine is abandoned in the corporate or domestic scenario.

United States is known to use up 200 billion pages just on fax machines. Just by making 10% of this paperless, two million trees could be preserved every year. Since, increased fuel and manpower required in dispensing the end product in addition to fuel and water needed to manufacture paper, reducing fax paper usage indicates lower requirement of these resources.

If we saved 10% by using email faxing, we can save electrical energy equal to the amount needed to power the New York subway for more than 2 months. This would also save around 700 million gallons of water that can supply the city of Philadelphia for two complete days. That very same percentage can also help us stop air pollution of around 6 million pounds, that is about as much of harmful gases produced by 500 cars in one year.

So, how would paperless faxing affect you? Faxing by email exhibits an edge over conventional fax machine because of its feature of allowing you to send a range of computer programs and not only content that can be put on paper. You can fax files that you use daily like MS Word, MS Excel or MS PowerPoint.

Now a days, with advancing technology, fax-to-email services are now available on your smartphone through which you can send and receive faxes. This eliminates the need to leave your place and send a fax, check the availability of fax machine, locate a fax machine, wait long hours while receiving and sending multiple faxes. All one needs is internet access on your smartphone and you can preserve faxes in addition to sending and receiving.

The fax-to-email services provide a secured service protected by anti-virus and other security which is another benefit of paperless faxing by email. Your account is protected by a safe password and your can use it to get a fax directly in your email account.

You do not require to have any telephone, fax machine, software to sign up for a paperless fax by email or purchasing any new hardware, you can easily sign up by using your credit card everything will be ready to use after signing up.

An email account and an internet connection is all you require. The advantage is the assurance that there will be no delays due to paper jams, busy lines and empty cartridges because everything is handled online and in exceptional quality.
