Standalone fax machines and fax on multifunction copiers

Most offices now fax from a multifunction copier or printer rather than a dedicated machine. We repair both: the fax board, the modem and phone-line settings, and the scanner and print engine the fax depends on.

Many fax failures are really line problems. VoIP phone systems, new internet providers and changed extensions all cause failed transmissions. We check the device and its line settings together.

Common fax machine problems we fix

  • Faxes fail to send or receive

    Often caused by VoIP lines, ECM and baud-rate settings, or a failing modem. We test the line and adjust settings or repair the hardware.

  • Originals jam in the feeder

    Worn rollers and separation pads cause misfeeds. We replace and adjust them.

  • Incoming faxes are blank or streaked

    A print-engine, toner or thermal-head problem. We repair the print side of the machine.

  • Fax-to-email or fax forwarding stopped

    Mail-server and network changes break forwarding. We reconfigure it.

Fax Machine Repair FAQ

Can you fix the fax function on our copier?

Yes. We service the fax boards and settings on multifunction copiers and printers as well as standalone fax machines.

Our faxes started failing after we switched phone providers. Can you help?

Very likely. VoIP and digital lines often need slower transmission speeds or error-correction changes. We'll test the line and adjust the device.

Is fax repair covered by your guarantee?

Yes. All repairs carry our 90-day guarantee on parts and labor.
