This article shows you how to send a fax from a Windows 10 computer using Windows Fax & Scan and free online fax services.

Faxing may seem like an old-fashioned way to communicate, but many businesses still use fax machines as their primary means of communication, meaning you’ll need to send a fax every now and then. Luckily, Windows 10 has a built-in fax feature called Windows Fax and Scan.

Before you can start faxing, you need to connect a phone line to your computer via a fax modem, and then activate the Fax and Scan software. Here's how to get started.

To open Windows Fax and Scan, type “Fax and Scan” in the Windows 10 search bar and select the Windows Fax and Scan app from the search results.
