How many types of fax machines are there?

: 1. Thermal paper fax machine, the consumable is thermal paper, and the characters will fade over time.

2. For thermal transfer fax machines, the consumables are ribbons. The ribbons will deteriorate over time, probably in about three months.

If you don't have high requirements for faxing and just simply send and receive, you can choose these two, because the consumables are not easy to save, but the cost of use is very low.

3. Laser plain paper fax machine (also called laser all-in-one machine), the consumables are toner cartridge and toner, which are usually integrated, but also separated (that is, the toner cartridge and toner cartridge assembly can be replaced separately), it is very fast and can

Do a lot of office work part-time, such as printing, copying, and scanning.

4. Inkjet plain paper fax machine (also called inkjet all-in-one machine).

The consumables are ink cartridges, which may be relatively expensive, but color inkjet can send and receive color faxes, and can be used if you have special needs.

That's about it. I'm a fax machine repairer. I suggest that in addition to inkjet, the rest depends on your needs. Inkjet is really not that good.
