Setting Up a Fax
If your computer has a fax modem installed, you can send and receive faxes through your computer. If you are not sure, you can use the Phone and Modem Options utility in the Control Panel to check if you have one installed. Using Windows Fax and Scan (New!), you can send and receive faxes, fax or e-mail scanned documents, and forward faxes as e-mail attachments from your computer. The Fax Setup Wizard helps you set up the Fax Service using a modem or a fax server. Afterwards, you can enter some personal information for the fax cover page, a phone number, and some option for the way you want to send and receive faxes.
