Subject: FAX MACHINE COMPATIBILITY

Question
Carmine - I have a Canon FaxPhone 18 Fax machine.  It is probably 15 years old.  I am finding that I am increasingly unable to send faxes to certain fax machines, whereas others receive just fine.  Has there been a change in FAX protocol in the past 15 years, so that my old machine may not be compatible with newer machines?  If so, I would want to buy a newer machine.  What should I look for to tell if the next machine I buy is compatible with the newer protocols?  I would probably buy a reconditioned fax on Ebay, but don't know what models to look for - or what year of manufacture the new protocols went into effect (if that is the problem).

Looking forward to any guidance you can give.  Many thanks.....!

Dear Jerry,
Put The Old Boy In The Trash Can And Go To Office Max or Another Electronics / Office Supply Store And Buy A New One.
The Prices Have Come Way Way Down These Few Years.
