Unified Communications
We have Fax module and can get inbounf faxes to email.
My question is - can we use S100 as Fax machine to send faxes from Windows 10 PC? I mean using Windows Fax and Scan software as client and S100 as Fax Server?
Thank in advance.

Larry Neblett The S-PBX has no Window's driver support. So, effectively trying to fax directly from the PBX without using a fax machine is not currently possible.
What you can do is use the fax/scan from Windows to send the file to your multi-function device or fax machine (assuming there are supported drivers) and then connect the telephone line from the device to a FXS port on the PBX. This will then send the fax out whatever telephone service you have-analog, SIP, etc.. As a side note, in order for this to have a decent chance of success, if using SIP, your provider needs to support t.38 and you need to have a stable Internet connection.
There are some systems where you can upload and send a certain file format and fax same directly from the PBX and.........perhaps this will be a coming feature in the S PBX.
There are no systems of which I am aware that have in-built Windows drivers to allow direct from PC to PBX for conversion and sending.

bill We have the same request from some of our customers - the ability to send outbound faxes from the desktop through the S series PBX.
We also VAR Zultys systems and their desktop client provides this feature. I was hopeful that the new Linkus desktop client would add this capability but see no mention of it in the early details. Yeastar - this would be an awesome addition.
+1 for desktop outbound fax sending

Ashar Fathony It would be better if this feature (sending fax via Yeastar S-Series IPPBX) implemented.

daniel richard If you want to send Fax from Windows 10 then there are a lot of free software available in the market. You need to download that software.
In case you want to know about some free of cost fax software then here we will recommend the best one so you could try it in case of need.
1: MyFax – Best Budget Windows Fax Software: This is best for Windows PC’s and it’s similar to eFax because both of them give users the capability to direct faxes all over the world without a surcharge. It has been observed that eFax cuts down the number of faxes every month to 200 and increasing the prices, but MyFax isn’t expensive and lets you send 400 faxes a month. Here you can send faxes via your email or your online account. In case you’re referring it by email, you can also assimilate it with Outlook. You just have to include the recipient’s fax number in the address bar and serve it with “@myfax.com” and preface that with the code of the country.
