printhis,

Thank you for visiting the Dell Community Forum.

The A960 has a built in fax modem, so it can fax independently from the computer or it can be controlled from the computer with the software that is included; it also has an automatic document feed (up to 50 sheets).

So steve If I have a word document i can choose fax it and then it will fax directly from my screen with out wasting paper and Ink.  Your answer was not clear.  I bought an Hp and I was not able to do this I really need to know.

printhis,

You can use the “print to fax” option to fax directly from a program without having to print a hard copy of the document. Information on doing this can be found on page 50 of the A960 Owner’s Manual available in PDF form at the following address:
