Set up your printer to send faxes on Mac
If you have a multifunction printer connected to your Mac, follow these instructions to set it up to send faxes.
If your multifunction printer is compatible with macOS 12 or later, the fax capability is added automatically when you add the printer. If you can’t add the printer as a fax machine, see the documentation that came with the printer to find out how to use it to send and receive faxes.
As an alternative to faxing, consider scanning your document and saving it as a PDF or in another text format that you can email. You may also be able to send and receive faxes with an internet faxing service.
Follow the instructions that came with the printer to set it up and connect it to your Mac.
On your Mac, choose Apple menu
in the sidebar. (You may need to scroll down.)If you don’t see your multifunction printer in the list, click the Add Printer, Scanner, or Fax button on the right.
Select your printer in the list, click the Use pop-up menu, choose the version of printer software that supports faxing, then click Add.
To set up a fax queue for your multifunctional printer, do the following:
Click the printer or scanner in the Printers list.
Type a name for the fax queue in the Name field.
Type the fax number of the multifunctional printer in the Fax number field.
To share this fax from this device with others on the network, click “Share this fax on the network.” If you can’t turn on sharing for this fax device, click Open Sharing Settings and turn on Printer Sharing.
Click Done.
