Sending faxes may not be as common these days, but there are still situations that require you to send one. If you find yourself in this situation and you don’t have a fax machine handy, don’t worry! You can send faxes using your Mac computer for free. In this post, we will go through the steps on how to fax from a computer using Mac for free.
The first thing you need to do is convert your document to a PDF file. This is the most convenient format to use, but if you have a Word file that you want to send, that works as well. Once your document is in the proper format, you can use a free web page to send the fax. There’s no need to download anything, just follow the instructions below.
Here are the steps to follow:
Step 1: Fill out your information
– Go to the webpage that allows you to send a fax for free.
– Fill out your name, company, and email address (make sure to use a real email address).
– Next, enter the recipient’s name, company, and fax number. Make sure you enter the correct information, especially the fax number.
Step 2: Choose the file you want to send
– Click on “Choose File” and select the PDF or Word file you want to send.
– In the “From” and “To” fields, enter your name and the name of the recipient.
– If you’re sending more than one page, enter the page numbers.
Step 3: Send the fax
– Click on “Send Free Fax”.
– You’ll receive an email asking you to confirm your email address.
– Click on the link in the email to confirm your email address.
– You’ll receive another email confirming that the fax was successfully sent.
It’s important to note that you can only send up to three pages at a time, plus a cover page. However, you can send up to five free faxes per day. So, if you need to send more than three pages, you can send them in multiple faxes. Just make sure you don’t go over the limit of fifteen pages.
Once you’ve confirmed your email address, the fax will be sent. You’ll receive an email confirming that the fax was successfully sent, or that it failed for some reason (such as an incorrect fax number).
It’s worth noting that the free service adds an advertisement to the cover page of your fax. This isn’t usually a problem, but if you need to send a professional-looking fax, you may want to consider using a paid service. The same website offers a paid service that costs $1.99 per fax.
Sending a fax from your computer using a Mac is an easy process that saves you time and money. You don’t need to go out and buy a fax machine or visit a fax service. All you need is an internet connection and a PDF or Word document. If you have any questions or problems, feel free to leave a comment below.
