I don't think that fax machines generally impose a page reception limit 
except to fail when they run out of paper.

Generally speaking I find that a limit of 25 is too small because almost 
every business will eventually have someone try to send them a 30-50 (or 
more) page fax.

But I have seen a number of sending fax systems malfunction to the point 
where they transmitted hundreds of pages of nonsense, and to prevent 
those from tying up the line too long it's generally wise to have some 
kind of limit.

When I think about it, I generally change the setting from 25 to 200.

Thanks,

Lee.
