Faxing is an inherently telephone-line based endeavor. So somewhere along the way you need something attached to the POTS (Plain Old Telephone System).
There may be simpler ways on Linux, but the HylaFax server [1] has been a long standing solution for this, but again, requires one or more modems and a phone line. At a previous employer, they worked around needing POTS, by paying for an online service, and it seems eFax [2] is still pretty prevalent in this space. If this is a one-off, you can take docs to a Staples, FedEx Office or UPS Store and they should be able to provide a fax method for you. -Shawn [1] - https://www.hylafax.org/ [2] - https://www.efax.com/ On Mon, May 3, 2021 at 1:02 PM Bruce Labitt <bruce.lab...@myfairpoint.net> wrote: > Not sure if this is a unicorn or it is common.
