Device called “MagicJack” & Fax Machines. Are they compatible?
I ONLY have a land-line for my fax machine. If I didn’t have that, we would 100% rely on our mobile’s.

I HATE having to pay so much just for a fax machine and nothing else (AT&T/SBC/Cingular/WHATEVER suck & are nothing short of EVIL) and they tacked on so many extra features that I can’t get taken off…

But I digress…

We ONLY use the land-line for fax so if MagicJack works with my All-In-One Brother B&W Laser Printer/Copier/Fax/Scanner it would solve a LOT of problems and save me a TON of money!

Again, I don’t care about 911 service, I have my cell for that, I ONLY care about Fax Transmissions!

I would GREATLY appreciate ANY advice or info you can provide!

.00 for your first YEAR of local AND long distance calls… .00 a YEAR after the first year… (Extra is for the device.)

Best answer:

Here is the official FAQ answer from MJ:

” Sometimes.
We do not officially support using faxing with magicJack.

Please try the following steps to use magicJack with your fax (contact your fax vendor for details):

Turn off error correction on your fax machine or program
Set the fax machine or program to use the slowest speed available
Increase the speed, checking at each speed that faxes work ”

    I have used it with limited success. There are days it works flawlessly and then days when it just refuses to work.

    There are a few Internet sites which allow you to send faxes for free like:

    faxzero.com/
    freefax.com/
