Hello, The fax device in Win XP cannot be shared. It's also limited to 1 fax device which limits volume even if you're using a 3rd party application. This is a limitation of the version TAPI in non server versions of Windows [Server Standard 4 devices, Enterprise unlimited devices]. If need or plan on sending any volume of faxes through MS Fax you should invest in a decent fax modem. Because MS's Fax Service Provider lacks compatibility with Error Correction Mode even if the hardware supports it.

Hello, Fax service in Windows XP does not allow fax sharing. The Fax service is a client and it can't be used as a fax server. Therefore, you should use a third party fax application. One example: Zetafax.
