We are on a network and do not have phone lines on the computers. We need some software or website that we can send the docs to and then they will be faxed without needing an analog phone line. My does not like to spend money and wants a free one. Does anyone know of any?

I doubt you will get one free.
In the meantime look at this.

Email-to-Fax Capability
My company is looking for a Windows 2000 and Windows NT fax product that will let users send faxes directly from their email application (e.g., by typing a faxnumber rather than an email address in the To field). Our clients run Win2K, NT 4.0, and Windows 9x systems. Do you have any suggestions?

Plenty of fax server products can integrate with products such as Microsoft Exchange Server and Outlook to accomplish the functionality you desire. Many of these products act as email-to-fax gateways and offer special address types that understand when to send information to your fax application rather than to your email application. Most of these productsalso give you special fax clients, in addition to an SMTP gateway option. However, fax clients require additional software installation and aren't as easy to deploy in enterprise environments that are already mail-enabled. I recommend checking out http://www.ntfaxfaq.com, which provides a comprehensive listing of Win2K and NT fax products.

and check ntfaxfaq.com out.

Buy Norton Antivirus 4.0 regulare edition on CD (price is < $10 w/o box) and then there is a fax program included on the CD. I think it is called WinFax or PC anywhere. I'm not too sure. other than that, search FTP sites for fax programs.
