Fax - Sending a fax

In this guide we discuss how to send a fax.

To start, please login to the Sipalto dashboard and navigate to:

Analytics > Faxes

Then click on the Send Fax button on the top right of the screen:

This brings you to the Information page:

Number: Enter the destination phone number of where the fax is being sent to. You are able to send to multiple phone number, by separating each phone number with a comma.

Scheduled delivery: You can either leave this field set to 'As soon as possible' - meaning the fax would be sent straight away, or you can schedule a date and time you would like the fax to be sent.

Caller ID: Click in this field to select your outbound fax number from the drop-down box which appears - this will be labelled - Fax Number on your account.

Fax quality: You can select the quality of you document/fax you are sending. We recommend to use standard as higher resolution files are not always successful and could mean a failure in the fax being delivered.

Page size: Leave as automatic.

Page rotate: Leave as automatic portrait rotation.

File in PDF or TIFF format: Select the document you want to send.

Email status to: If you would like to receive a status notification of the fax, please enter the email address you would like it sent to.

Delete after send: Leave blank as standard, but you can tick this box if you would like the document deleted after the fax has been sent.

Once you have the above set as required, press Send and this will bring you back to the main Faxes page where you can view the status of your fax.
