Fax From The Computer
by Matt Gerchow
With a computer at your disposal, you can do a lot of stuff. Pretty much everyone would agree to that. But would you agree if someone said that you could send faxes via computer?
Some may find it hard to believe, while a lot of others would find it absolutely hilarious. But the fact remains, these days one can send out or receive their faxes on a computer itself rather than the big monstrous fax machines.
Technology mainly helps in simplification of life as we know it. Trends keep changing just like technology does. The current trend is to send faxes online. One email account, a computer with internet connection - neither is hard to find, and an account with one of the numerous online fax service providers is all that one could ever need these days to be able to receive fax and send fax.
To be able to send a fax from a computer you should first log into your account and authenticate the genuineness of the transaction. Having completed this, you need to do find your document which you intend to send and then attach it to the email and complete the transaction by clicking on send to actually send in your fax in an electronic form.
Where such electronic form also helps in is that you can have a back up copy of your fax stored in your email account. Also you can request the recipient for an acknowledgement. This way, you can maintain and track your fax transactions online which effectively means that the process of tracking is much faster.
You can even receive your fax via email onto your computer in a similar method. The only difference being that you are expected to check your email account for any incoming fax, which might prove to be a bit annoying during unavoidable delays.
