There are three main types of fax software available.
The first kind is an online or internet based fax service. The Internet is used to access this service (typically over email, a web interface, an app, or a program installed on a computer).
The second type is a computer program that turns the computer into a replacement for a fax machine.
You can send a fax from a Mac OS X printing program using the FAX Utility. You can fax up to 100 pages at a time, including a cover sheet. Open the file you want to fax. Select the print command in your application. Scan images or documents using your Mac. Os x for windows 10. If you have a scanner or a printer with a scanner, you may not need any special software to scan an image. Before you scan, you need to open your scanner. Then, follow the instructions for either a document-feeding scanner or a flatbed scanner. Fax Burner is my favorite app out of the bunch, based strictly on the fact I was able to both send and receive a fax using a custom phone number for free within seconds of signing up.
The third type is a fax server – typically used in enterprise environments.

Type 1 – Online software and services
An online fax service acts like a virtual fax machine accessed through the Internet.
The fax service manages all the fax “infrastructure” (such as phone lines and software).
Type 2 – Installed software

Software can be installed on a computer to have it “imitate” a traditional fax machine – the computer is plugged into a phone line and connects to another fax machine through the phone network.
Both Windows and Linux have options for fax software. Mac OS X does not (as there is no longer a fax modem available since OS X 10.7).
With Windows, the operating system includes Windows Fax and Scan (Fax Console on Windows XP). There are also a number 3rd party options that can give added functionality.

In the case of Linux, there are some open source options for fax software – everything from smaller fax clients (like Windows fax and scan) to software that is used to power enterprise level systems.
Type 3 – Fax servers
A fax server is typically used in an enterprise environment and administered by an IT specialist (or department).
From a user perspective, fax servers work very much like an online fax service (allowing users to send and receive faxes over email or a software program). However, all the fax infrastructure is managed through the organization.
