How do I fax on my printer

It depends on a printer model.

HP Fax app allows users to send faxes without a printer.

What you can do depends on whether your printer includes FAX hardware.

Fax hardware (in your printer) -- and at this writing - almost always requires a Landline to connect the Fax.

The landline connection requires a 2-wire phone cable (not the standard 4-wire cable used with a landline phone).

Printer Fax has been around for a long time --

In general, the printer's user manual will dedicate an entire chapter to Fax.

Sometimes the manual will include a troubleshooting section for correcting Fax errors.
