Thanks for the added information. Hello; I have been reading the forums, and have tried to set up an account for the 20 free faxes. I just purchased a HP Photosmart e-all in one series.
When I set it up I was assigned a fax number. I assumed I had the capability to use e-fax. But I am at a stand still. Can you help me with this? No answer to this post? I was hoping to hear someone's experience with this added service. Is it absolutely free? When I asked about efax, the store salesman could give me no information, and HP support would not answer the call after 15 minutes on hold. The representative at efax said HP has an agreement that allows 20 free incoming and 20 free outgoing per month but he couldn't help with that since it was an HP thing!
I was told by the salesman that Canon and Epson sell home printers that have regular faxes. Pretty simple. Works like a "normal" fax. If you want to receive a fax, give the person the fax number that you were assigned and have them send the fax to that number. But your 'received' faxes should wait in queue online until you start the eFax App on the printer; at that point any waiting faxes you have received anyone has sent to you will print at your printer.
This may take a few moments, so just be a little patient. Once you hit send, your fax will head straight to the fax machine of your recipient. Or, if your recipient also has eFax, the fax will go to their eFax account, which they can hook up to their email. You can also send an eFax using a mobile app, eFax messenger software, or using your online eFax account.
Yes, eFax is an extremely secure way of sending and receiving faxes. All faxes received and stored on eFax are encrypted and completely confidential. You can keep faxes in the cloud and limit access only to those who need it.
