Silly question but some people like the embosser BUT the embossed seal does not show up in a fax.
According to the MA Governor's web site, "Notaries must have and use a stamp or seal. It can be either a black ink stamp, or a seal that makes an indentation on the paper. The stamp or seal must contain: (1) the notary public’s name; (2) the words "notary public," "Commonwealth of Massachusetts" or "Massachusetts," and "my commission expires on" or "my commission expires" or "commission expires" (all of which indicate the commission expiration date); and (3) a facsimile of the great seal of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. If you are a current notary and have a seal that has all of this information except for the expiration date, you may obtain a black ink stamp that has your name and the expiration date. You then would use both the stamp and the seal each time you notarize a document." (Source: Notary Public FAQ http://tinyurl.com/3wjbyza)

While the state is silent on the issue of using both, and both are valid when used by themselves individually, using both on the same document should not invalidate the notarization. Questions about notaries public should be directed to the Office of the Governor's Legal Counsel at (617) 725-4030.

In NJ I stamp and seal with embosser.
You can also shade embossed seal with pencil and you wll get a faint outline on fax.
