How do I fax from my computer?

[kippax]

As per title does anyone know of any free software that will enable me to do this? I am sick of paying to fax my receipts of each month when I have a scanner & could hopefully do from my PC.

Thanks

Theres open source faxing products to send faxes out over an analogue modem via the phone line.

Windows has one built in as well.

From there its pay services like efax which are email to fax services.

There is a free email to fax service but theres a header page with an ad on it, may or may not be a solution for you.

Well I use WinFax - good enough for me but you have to pay for it. I think there is a legacy function in Outlook/Word that still works, but I haven't used this since W98 days.

we use efax for all of our faxing, it does OK as long as the filesizes aren't too big

why can't you scan and email?

Open up printers and faxes from your control panel, choose set up faxing, follow instructions, connect modem to phone line, print to new fax printer... job done.

If you haven't got a 56K modem, just bag yourself a USB one. Don't even need to open up your computer!
