How Much Does It Really Cost to Send a Fax?
The true cost of sending faxes depends on your method. Traditional fax machines, online fax services, and modern solutions like SendItFax each have different pricing structures. Understanding these costs can help you save hundreds or even thousands of dollars annually.
Traditional Fax Machine Costs
A traditional fax machine requires significant upfront and ongoing expenses:
- Equipment: $150-$500 for a quality fax machine
- Phone Line: $30-$50 per month for a dedicated line
- Paper & Ink: $0.05-$0.10 per page
- Electricity: $10-$15 per month
- Maintenance: $15-$30 per month (toner, repairs)
Total annual cost: For a business sending 20 faxes per month (3 pages each), you're looking at approximately $700-$1,000 per year – and that's before considering the time spent maintaining equipment and troubleshooting issues.
