Is it definitely impossible to share a fax using XP?

Hi,

been searching all morning for answer to this and some site seem to think it's possible (but don't provide how) and some seem to think it's impossible.

I have 2 XP machines. One has a modem installed and can fax perfectly fine. I would like the other machine to access that modem and send faxes also.

Impossible?

Thanks
John
 
I believe you would need third-party software that supports that feature, it's not native to XP.

Program such as Zetafax and Winfax definitely do it; there may be some 'lighter' apps around.

You could try


Free trial by the looks. (Found via NCH software who are good for little bits of software)

Most people spend their time on the "urgent" rather than on the "important."
