What Faxbeep does not do.

Faxbeep receives test faxes and test emails, and shows them on faxbeep.com. This page lists what it does not do, and what to use instead.

Send a fax

Faxbeep only receives. It cannot send a fax to you or to anyone else. To send a fax, use PayPerFax (below).

Test that your machine receives

A test with Faxbeep checks that your machine can send. To check that it receives, someone must send a fax to your number. PayPerFax, from the same team, can send one fax with no subscription.

PayPerFax

Send one fax and pay only for that fax. Use it to send a test fax to your own machine.

Private tests

Each test is public for 30 days. There is no private mode. To remove a test sooner, see Remove a fax.

Colour by phone

A fax by phone must be black and white. A test by email can be in colour.

More than one file in one email

Faxbeep shows one file for each email. Put all pages in one PDF or TIFF file.

A reply email or a delivery report

Faxbeep does not send a reply email. To see the result, look for your page on faxbeep.com. If Faxbeep refuses an email, your mail server reports a short message. See Email refusal messages.

Text that you can select in the PDF of an email test

Faxbeep rebuilds each file as a PDF that holds only images of the pages. You cannot select the text. See The fax page.

A test of your fax line by email

Scan to email and Internet Fax use your network, not a phone line. To test a fax line, send a fax by phone. See Fax test.

Accounts

There are no accounts. You do not need to sign up to send a test.
