Can the fax on this machine work with VOIP?

It works sometimes. It always works sending. But about half the time I get an error on incoming faxes.

I own this printer. I never used the fax function but I do not believe it is designed to work with VOIP. I welcome any corrections.

Fax over IP with a special protocol designed for Faxing with VoIP. The key standardised protocol for this is T.38. This is not something that you will get with an RJ11 jack. That is for standard POTS lines and T1s. Any time Faxing works with a VoIP line you should count yourself lucky as per Dr. S.

Website specifies that an Analog phone line is required.... However, if your voip service supports faxing (not all do) it may be possible if you have an analog adapter. (ATA device) The software doesn't allow your computer to send the fax directly through the computer modem.

Yes. I use both MagicJack and Nettalk (VoIP's) with no problem. Have no land line. Connect a phone line first to the unit, then from the unit's ext. phone slot to your phone. Set up the '340 priority mode as to Telephone, Fax, Both, etc.

If you have a good internet connection and an American style phone connector (RJ-45), it should be fine. I didn't try it, however. Vonage has an "optimized" fax line option, for which you pay an additional charge beyond just your voice line. But, they admit this: "NOTE: Your Vonage voice line is not optimized for fax service, however, you can send and receive an occasional fax on this line. To do so, unplug the telephone cord from the port on the Vonage adapter and plug the cord from your fax machine into that same port." In other words, if your network connection is good, you should be fine.

Not being familiar with vonage configurations, but it should, I've done it for fax machines in the past.

Yes, you need some kind of analog phone service to send faxes. You also need a computer, but I am guessing you know that.

Further to the last response, you have to have a "land line" for the modem to work. If you want to send faxes long distance, you have to have long distance available from your provider and set the pre-dial number (i.e. 1-xxx-xxx-xxxx) or whatever its called. The system does work. Dave

I use a Brother MFC-7440N device and I am able to receive faxes through the OBi202 device using Google Voice.

Most fax machines do have answering capabilities, but not this one. I returned mine because the toner cartridge clip was defective and instead got a Brother Intellifax-2840 for the same price. It works great and has a built in answering machine.

Yes will probably work with a fax. I tryed to run a phone off of it and could not get a clear connection.

No it can not fax. The Bluetooth module is an add on. I've never used it since the wireless works fine.

No, it won't work w/ DSL. It is an analogue modem works on traditional phone line. For Internet Phone, pls consult with your service provider. The modem is tested w/ Google Voice w/ no problem to send and receive faxes. Wireless Fax Machine is not been tested and why does it need to use a modem if it already has a modem built-in since it is a fax machine. Pls provide more information for the application and how you plan to use it with a Wireless Fax Machine.

Yes, I do have Panansonic phone anwering machine, and also Brother MFC fax. They work perfectly with OBI200. I use PhonePower service.

The device has two-line capability. You can use either one for voice or fax, depending on the service provider you are using. I use VOIPo and am very happy with their service.

You have to have phone service of some kind be it VoIP or AT&T but you Have to have a signal to plug into the fax

I have used my fax with Ooma. I use the same line for voice and my fax and just turn the fax on when using it.

I have been told that you can send and receive faxes, but I have no first-hand experience doing it. I purchased the unit to connect my Dish receiver up to my telephone line. That operation works quite well, so it would seem that faxes would also.

NO. Suggest you go to Panasonic.com/help We are satisfied with fax, but it has minimal use at our home.
