How do you fax a simple document?

How do I send a fax of a scanned document through my PC?

  • Hello, How do I fill in a form by hand, scan it on a scanner attached to the PC, then send it as a FAX via the PC? Does Windows XP have the functions available to do this? Thank you for any advice.

  • Answer:

    yes it does. first disable your internet connection (Control Panel>Network and Internet Connections>Network Connections) right-click on the active one and select "Disable". Plug a phone cord into your computer's modem. While you're in the Control Panel make sure you have the Fax component installed. Go to Add/Remove Programs and on the side there's "Add/Remove Windows Components" check the box (if it isn't already) for the Fax feature. In the Control Panel > "Printers and other hardware" > "View installed printers and fax printers" you should see the Fax. Now open up the scanned document in a program (actually just the regular Windows image viewer may work) and go to print it. When the print dialog box comes up click on the fax and a wizard will come up and walk you through entering the information. _

Yes, Windows has built in fax. If you want to fax to a real fax machine, you'll need to use your computer modem connected to a phone line (if you use dial up connection to the internet, you already using the modem. If you use cable or DSL connection, you'll need to activate modem and connect it to the phone line.) It's too long to describe how to use fax function, so just go to Windows Help and look up "fax." You'll figure it out.
