i have had problems getting that seeminly built in program with office that is called Microsoft Fax, ex: like when you are in a Word Document and go to the File drop down Menu it has a Send to Fax Recipent option and then looks like you can go thru the motions of sending a fax.

However all the help files i’ve read seem to be on a Modem basis, and no sending help information when you are using a Voip for your phone line (or a DSL / Cable) any suggestions?

Or does anyone know of a free / inexpensive fax program that enables you to directly send faxes from a document from your computer instead of having to print it and then fax it?

Part of my desire in doing this is to save on paper… Thanks !

p.s. Happy Friday Everyone )

I am trying to shorten my learning curve as time is not on my side. The sytem in the fax console is working fine. Can some one tell me please. How do I send the cover sheet and attach a word document and send it to the recipient.

Lastly How do I set up the printer to print the the documents and save it in sent faxes. If there is a site that explains it clearly, that would be great for the URL.

I have looked on the Microsoft business centre, it is very heavy going. I am not lazy just not grabing it sorry to say.

I was wondering if it is possible to send a document (such as a Word document) to my downstairs computer to print it. The laptop connects wirelessly to my router which is directly connected to the PC. Is there any way for my to access the printer from my laptop?

I don’t think the printer is blue tooth compatible. It is also a fax machine though so if there is any kind of fax wizard on my laptop that would be great to know about. I have a dell inspiron by the way. Thanks!

I just want to know if I can fax a word document from my PC, sending the file to an actual fax machine plugged into a phone jack, and have that document actually come out as if I faxed a hard copy from another fax machine.

I can’t find the fax option on windows vista. I want to fax a Word document on my computer.

This may be a stupid question, but is there any way to send a word document from my computer to a fax machine?

I would like to use the IP faxing also call FoIP (fax over Internet Protocol) How to send a fax from my PC (word document, ..) if my conection is through a cable modem not a telephone line. I already count with VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol) in my case Yahoo messenger with voice and I count with a Motorola SB5100 Series SURFboard Cable Modem.
Anyone know how?

I want to send a fax of a form I filled out. For some reason the company accepts faxes for this form, but not an emailed scan.

What I would usually do is scan it, insert it into a Word document, and fax it using my fax modem. However, the last time I did it this way, I sent a test fax to myself, and it looked awful. It had noise and seemed compressed. It was barely legible.
