I have to start faxing some documents. I have a hp all in one and figured out how to scan a document (fax and scan would not let me email it???) but i only had the choice of saving it as jpg. Does a fax have to be a pdf or can it be jpg? If it has to be pdf how can I do that in windows 10? In order to fax does my laptop windows 10 have to be hardwired directly to phone line?
Windows Fax and Scan is a program included free with Microsoft Windows in every version from Vista to Windows 10. It can be used to turn a computer into a fax machine.
Will I also need a phone modem? We just got att with a gateway and new laptop.
When I messed around on other laptop that died and tried to fax it said modem not detected? Will fax and scan give me a confirmation to print out or save because I also have to fax that? I know lots of question but have never faxed from computer and am NOT very computer smarts so if you could be very explicit in your answers it would be appreciated. I went to help in windows fax and scan but nothing about setting it up.
Would I be better off just buying a print copy scan fax machine? I have to send at least 7 pages twice a month and do not want to pay for fax services. Thank you in advance for your reply.
