How to Use WINXP network Fax

Today, with the rapid popularization of broadband networks, our Modem seems to have been "cheap". It is too slow to use it to access the Internet.

The effect is very satisfactory, so that our Modem can be refreshed, we can also add a practical function to our computer.

Have you used broadband? Fast! But then the Modem we have has nothing to do with it. Does the Modem become a chicken rib of "tasteless food, a waste of pity? Don't forget that Modem is a device that converts digital signals and analog signals. It works the same way as a fax machine, the fax machine only has a "scanner" and "Printer" more than the Modem. So can we change the Modem into a fax machine? It's all right. Like Windows XP, it provides us with a very complete fax function that allows us to change our Modem into a network fax machine.

If you do not need Modem to access the Internet, you just need to re-add it as you used to dial-up the Internet. Next, let's take a look at how to set up a fax.

How about receiving and sending faxes using Windows XP! In fact, Microsoft provided us with the fax function as early as Windows 95. I don't know why this feature is not available in Windows 98. Fortunately, Windows XP picked up this function again. In addition, the functions and stability have been greatly improved, and our Modem has become youthful. Modem is a device that transforms digital and analog signals. The fax function on a computer uses the Modem feature to send and receive faxes. If your computer is equipped with scanners and printers, it will become a real fax machine.
