I'm sure we've all read this before.. but I think now is a good time to
repost it ;)

By US Code Title 47, Sec.227(a)(2)(B), a computer/modem/printer meets the
definition of a telephone fax machine. By Sec.227(b)(1)(C), it is unlawful
to send any unsolicited advertisement to such equipment. By
Sec.227(b)(3)(C), a violation of the aforementioned Section is punishable by
action to recover actual monetary loss, or $500, whichever is greater, for
each violation.
