By dedicated, I'm sure they mean that it's not used by anyone else...such as a library, Staples, etc.

Mostly for security I am sure most if not all of these services would be considered dedicated. I use nextiva fax for about $60 per year. So far everything working great (and no monthly cost for a landline)

Wow ringcentral wants 49.99 / month to send a fax from a machine... Seems expensive

What size package? I've got Ring Central. For 500 pages a month I pay $7.69 a month.

Well the first guy I talked to told me that's the cost of the direct from machine fax service then I called back and got told that I would need to buy an adapter for $79 and then pay $99 a year. I'm sure it's cheaper if I could use the fax through email option but from what I understand 5star policy is not to use fax through email

I don't have an adapter, someone's telling you wrong. You just scan the items to be faxed, then attach them like you do a regular e-mail. Then you put the 10 digit # in that you're sending it to followed by @rcfax.com

You're sending an e-mail and when you put the # followed by @rcfax.com, it converts it to a fax.
