Google Fax
by Matt Gerchow
The environment is critical to life. More companies are going green to help protect our future. When you manage your fax communications digitally, you reduce your companys carbon footprint significantly. Ink and toner used in fax machines are pollutants. Cartridges have dangerous chemical residue harmful to wildlife. Fax machines use vast amounts of paper, often for spam. These large clunky machines use more electricity than other office machines. And it is all so unnecessary. Google fax not only reduces environmental hazards, but also saves you hundreds of dollars a year. It seems like a no-brainer.
How to Google Fax
First you need a Gmail account. You can get one free from Google, which has the superior capability of handling all your communications. Then you need to select a company that provides fax service, such as RingCentral. Then get assigned an online fax number from which to receive incoming faxes. You can get a local number, a toll-free number or an international phone number. Then you are all set to send and receive faxes. Just compose an email within you Gmail account, attach your fax document or paste it in the message area and then send. The address depends on your fax provider. You also include the recipients fax number as part of the address.
Important Particulars
The company you have selected will see that the fax is sent as you instruct -- immediately or on a time-delay. Multiple recipients can also be selected.
