So long as you have a dial up modem (check for a phone jack on your PC) - you can fax right from your computer.
For those who do not wish to configure Windows inherent fax solution, I recommend Onebox (http://www.legaltypist.com/onebox.htm). With Onebox any business can send and receive (along with organize) incoming/outgoing faxes. But that's not all! Onebox also helps control and organize telephone calls, voicemails, faxes and e-mails -- all from one easy to use web based account/login.
