How to fax from a computer?

Answer 1

On a conventional fax machine, you load the document into the fax machine, dial the fax number (dialed exactly the same way you would dial the same telephone number from a landline telephone at the same location), and press Send. Some newer fax machines may allow you to scan the document into memory before dialing the number. You may also be able to send a fax directly from your computer without printing it on paper, using the same process as printing, but selecting the fax machine instead of a printer. You will be prompted to enter the fax number. Lastly, some internet fax services allow you to scan a document or otherwise create a digital image of a document and send it through the Internet.

To send a fax using a traditional fax machine: 1. Insert the paper to be faxed. Checked the fax sheet feeder for proper orientation on how to insert the paper. 2. Dial the fax number where you want to send the fax. 3. Once connected wait for a fax tone or if someone answer the call ask him/her to activate the fax machine for you. 4. When the fax tone beeps just press your fax machine's SEND or FAX button. That's how simple it is. But I suggest you try an online fax service instead. Check on RingCentral, Grasshopper, 101Fax or other provider. I thought I would never need a fax machine. I have used Joyfax Server regularly for nearly 30 days. It was easy to integrate.
