MCLA has partnered with WestFax, a cloud-based fax service that integrates with MCLA Email and BlazerPrint Copiers. Faxing a document can now be done by simply sending an e-mail. Users can also receive faxes securely that go directly to their MCLA mailbox. Users who have a paper document to fax can still do so on any BlazerPrint Copier on campus. The following instructions will walk through this these various options.
