My first thought would be a hardware solution. Some of these multifunction printers send faxes and have appropriate drivers etc. Could be an option - one off cost for hardware - put it on network somewhere and go for broke.
Or I recall back in the day there were cards that plugged into the PC and these too were networkable solutions. Quick search for fax cards on google came up with a heap of results. Bargain prices like $20.
Good suggestion.
Been there, done that, got the T-shirt. HylaFax would be my choice for turnkey, configurable, reliable fax serving. But faxing is a pretty commodity operation, and this is a key business function for time-critical order placements, so standby hardware would likely make infeasible due to too much capital investment up-front.
