Why would a fax not go through?
What Does a Fax “No Answer” Alert Mean? In layman's language, it means that the receiving fax machine may not be available, or the connection between the two machines has failed. In some cases, your fax machine may not have received a signal from the other fax machine, hence the “no answer” error.Feb 22, 2018

How long does it take for an electronic fax to go through?
Sending a fax takes about 30 seconds to 1 minute per page of text (assuming a clear connection for both machines and using today's technology). Graphics, fax machines that have been modified to send slower, and lousy phone connections can drastically slow the transmission speed down.Aug 9, 2021
