This is what hylafax does.

If you are using one of the "print-to-fax" clients, then you just fax
the document you currently print (only because that's what the client is
designed to do).

It's been a while since I used whfc or cypheus, but I thought that both
of these also had a "send fax" interface where you could pick the files
to send and send them without haveing to use the "print-to-fax" feature.
