How to Fax Via DSL

Internet fax sites provide an alternative to fax machines.

Fax machines are expensive--and going to a store to use a fax machine can be inconvenient. Fortunately, plenty of free fax websites out there allow you to use your DSL Internet connection to send faxes from your computer without any additional costs involved. These sites often pay for the service through the use of advertising that is published on the cover page of your outgoing fax.

Instructions

1. Navigate to the free site FaxZero (see "Resources"). Enter your name and email address under the appropriate boxes in the "Sender Information" section. Type in the name and fax number for where the fax is going in under "Receiver Information." Enter your message under "Fax Information" and enter the confirmation code in the marked textbox. Click "Send free fax now."

2. Open your browser to Free Fax (see "Resources"). Enter your email address in the first textbox on the left in the site window. Enter the recipient's fax number in the second textbox right underneath. Type in your message in the big box marked "message" on the right. Click the "Send" button to send the fax.

3. Go to the GotFreeFax website (see "Resources"). Enter your email and name under "Sender Info." Type in your intended recipient's name and fax number under "Receiver Info." Enter your message under "Fax content." Click the button marked "Send FREE fax now!"
