The seniors don’t need a computer or Internet service, just the  Presto Mail service and Printing Mailbox. By installing this new  service it will provide a renewed link between elders and their family  that can significantly improve their quality of life and ability to  age-in-place.

Note: The Presto Printing Mailbox does not work with  VOIP (digital) phone lines. Ask the phone company whether a standard  fax machine can be put on the line. If it can, then a Presto Printing  Mailbox can be used with no problems. If not, ask if they can convert  the digital line to analog right outside the home. Tell them it's for a fax machine. This is a viable solution.

Help relieve family stress
Many children live far away from their aging parents. Presto allows  them to help from a distance, making it much easier to spread some of  the responsibility for helping care for Mom and Dad to other family  members.

Make your business more efficient
You can also use Presto to communicate with clients. Whether you send  reminders that a caregiver is coming, one of Presto’s automatically  delivered crossword puzzles, or instructions from headquarters for a  scheduled care provider, Presto can help make your business more  efficient.

Presto is an economical solution
With an inexpensive Presto Printing Mailbox and low monthly service  fee, your clients get a personalized, spam-free email address to share  with family and friends. You get a service loved by tens of thousands  of Presto users to help differentiate your offerings.
