You seem to have misunderstood Hal's answer.
When the Windows XP fax facility is installed, it creates a printer-like
listing as seen in Control Panel Printers and Faxes. To use it, Select
it as the default printer and print the document as usual. As "Printin"
starts, there will be on-screen prompts. If this is first use, some
screens will appear for required information.
If Fax does not appear in your list of printers, you will have to
navigate to Control Panel Add remove programs Add/Remove
Windows Components and select Fax. Put the Windows XP CD in the drive
and follow on-screen prompts.
Let us know.
