How to test your fax machine

Follow these four simple steps to check if your fax machine is sending properly.

1. Prepare your test fax

Create a single-page or multi-page black & white test fax. The content of the fax is irrelevant for this test, so feel free to be creative. You can also just use a blank page, but this will give you less information.

2. Send the test fax​

Send your test fax to one of our test numbers listed above from the fax machine or multi-function printer you wish to test. You can dial these numbers from anywhere in the world.

3. Await fax arrival

After sending your fax, wait a minute or two, then refresh this page for it the fax appear on this page above. During this time our system processes your fax for display.

4. Review your received fax

Once your fax appears on the page, check it, noting the orientation, quality, masked sender number and your sender ID.
