Java Fax, anyone?

Hi all, I’m a newbie javaman, sort to speak, and I am wondering about java fax API: I’m not sure whta the advantages are of using java to send a fax online, via and ADSL modem, instead of just purchasing one of those an all-in-one printers. Is it a difficult thing to program? I’m a bit at a loss here (probably due to my own ignorance), but would appreciate any comments nonetheless.

Thanks!
Frances

Sorry man, Java is a completely different language from JavaScript (Now ECMAScript, originally LiveScript)
Java is not JavaScript - JavaScript is not Java
