There's one thing possibly unknown here, and that's the big advantage with FAX:
FAX is not a one way thing like email, but a two way connection between the fax
machines.
The sending machine will only start sending after the receiving partner said:
'All OK here, paper ready, send your data'.

Only if the data was receifed complete and OK and could be printed (all
verified by transmisson software) the receifer will send back: 'OK got your
data at [time, date]'.
The sending machine will put that into its logfile und the sender has now a
shure evidence that the sending was readable reproduced at the destination.

Together with the timestamp quite important for a lawyer.

PC-software-fax fakes the paper, and if the pc crashes later, that's at the
expense of the receiver, the sender has the proof of delivery,
