But, when there is packet loss or packet transmission on a fax, there is a chance of mess up the fax. This results in a bad fax, error message, or even a dropped call. When we send over a Fax Codec, the loss of packets is minimized and faxes generally reaches to its destination. But in the case of a large fax where it goes up to 10 pages there is a chance of a losing of Fax. It is recommended that a users who is planning on faxing is better to get a fax machine which also doubles as a scanner and can also convert potential faxes into a .PDF file.
