Can be used for purposes other than preventing fax misdelivery.
One method to prevent erroneous FAX transmission is the use of speed dial operations. However, the speed dial registered on the FAX must always correspond to the recipient's FAX, and due to the ease of operation, it can be difficult to notice a mistake in pressing the speed dial, leading to concerns that the damage caused by such errors could be significantly greater than that caused by dialing a wrong phone number. For example, one might accidentally press the speed dial button for Company B instead of sending a FAX intended for Company A.
Additionally, in environments where a zero prefix is necessary, it is common to send without dialing "0" at the beginning. In methods of FAX transmission that require dialing the recipient each time, forgetting the "0" for outside line access or mistakenly pressing the wrong dial can also lead to erroneous transmissions.
At TeleGuard, we display the recipient on an authentication PC during FAX transmission and prevent sending the FAX unless authentication is performed, thereby preventing erroneous transmissions in advance. By placing the authentication PC on the LAN, it becomes possible to separate the roles of the FAX operator and the authenticator, clarifying the division of responsibilities during FAX transmission.
