Distribute Fax Resolution For Free

To test a fax line, make sure your fax machine is plugged into the line. Send someone a fax and ask the recipient to report whether the fax arrives and looks normal. Then, have someone send you a test fax and confirm the fax arrives and prints as it should.

A dirty scanner bed can result in poor-quality scans and may result in blurred or distorted faxes. To improve fax quality, you must make it a habit to clean your fax machine's scanner bed regularly. Wipe the scanner bed using a soft cloth and a gentle cleaning solution to remove any stains or dirt.

The most common resolutions for faxing and corresponding 'best' scanner setting are: Hyperfine - 408x391 - Scanner at 400 dpi. Fine - 204x196 - Scanner at 200 dpi. Normal/Low - 204x98 - Scanner at 200 dpi.

The most common fax resolutions are: hyperfine/superfine ? 408×391 dpi (dots per inch) or ppi (pixels per inch) fine ? 204×196 dpi or ppi. low/normal ? 204×98 dpi or ppi.

Faxing Photos and Scanned Documents Documents should be scanned in black and white only (never color or Greyscale). Scanning at 200 DPI (dots per inch) is preferred, though 300 DPI is acceptable.

Standard resolution fax is 204 x 98 DPI. 1728x1100 pixels. Fax transmission is limited to these two resolutions or basic sizes and that is why some faxes look really lousy.

After you have connected the fax machine to your telephone line, you can now test to see if is ready to send and receive faxes. Here's how: Program your full 10?digit fax number into your fax machine. Send a test fax to 1?855?FX?CANON (1?855?392?2666).

Color images and documents are the most common scanned objects. Color photographs should be scanned at 600 DPI, however; scanning at a DPI of 1200 will ensure archival-quality photographs. Scanning above 1200 DPI is overkill and not necessary.

For normal paper documents, a DPI value of 300 is optimal in most cases. Furthermore, for a satisfactory output, a color setting of 24 bits is necessary. Most printers have resolutions of 600 or up to 2,400 DPI, thus scanning at a greater DPI value is pointless because the printer won't be able to replicate it.

You can send a test fax to the HP Fax Test Service at 1-888-HPFaxme (1-888-473-2963). This free service sends a return fax within 5 to 7 minutes when fax is working properly. Your fax number must match the number you entered in the fax header to receive the return fax.
