Need to urgently send a document to someone’s or some agencies’ fax number but don’t have a fax machine? No problem. The solution is to use online methods to send and receive faxes using computer or smartphones such as iPhone.
Fax from computer (Mac OS X & Windows)
eFax
eFax has made it very easy to send faxes online without a fax machine. In fact, users could fax documents just as easily as sending an email with their PC or Mac computers.
Follow these simple steps to send a fax with email through eFax services:
- On the computer (Windows or Mac OS X) open an Internet browser (Firefox, Opera, Safari, Chrome, etc.) and then go to an email service and then create a new email message (or compose).
- Add ‘@eFaxSend.com” to the fax number and type it into the ‘To’ field.
- What is typed in the message box would be turned into cover sheet by eFax. And the fax document should be added as an attachment to the message.
- Click the ‘Send’ button.
Receiving an incoming fax is just as easy through email. Also, eFax mobile app could also be used for faxing services which we’re going to discuss later in this article.
Other options provided by eFax are: faxing from Epson or HP printer, faxing from Microsoft Word, or sending a fax from eFax account online.
FaxZero
FaxZero might be the most convenient choice for those being in a hurry to send a fax without a fax machine or just don’t want to go through the hassles of installing an online fax software or fax app on their devices.
So, all is needed to send a fax with FaxZero is an Internet browser and checking out the FaxZero website. After filling the sender and receiver information (name, phone & fax numbers) there are options below which allow the fax file to be selected.
PDF, DOCX and DOC files are supported by this Internet fax service. And if the cover page needs to contain a text, users could also type the text in the appropriate text box on the online form.
Now that the fax is ready to be sent, users have two options: Free fax and paid one ($1.99).
The free service limits the total fax pages to three pages (maximum five faxes daily for free). And also, the cover page would be including a FaxZero branding.
The paid fax service includes no FaxZero branding and users could fax up to 25 pages plus optional cover.
