Q: I just sent a fax. However the number that appeared in my machine's
display during the transmission wasn't the number I dialed. Why?
A: That number you saw is programmed into the remote fax machine by
the user. Some users (perhaps for privacy's sake?) prefer different
numbers to appear than the ones they're really using; and, frankly,
some people take over others' already-programmed fax machines and
don't know how to change the originally set number!
Q: Do I have to dial a 1 for a long-distance call?
A: Yes. Dialing a fax number is just like dialing any other phone number,
so be sure to include any special long-distance codes or dialing pauses
when dialing. Also, remember to include them when you set your
autodialer number.
Q: How do I send a fax to an overseas telephone number?
A: Dialing requirements for international calls may vary depending on
your local telephone company's requirements. For most international
calls, call 011, then the appropriate country code, city code and phone
number. (You may find country and city codes in the front section of
the telephone directory.)
Q: Can I transmit if my fax machine runs out of paper?
A: Yes, however, confirmation reports (see page 136) aren't available
when you transmit without recording paper in your fax machine.
Q: Can I transmit a document that's extra long?
A: Yes, if the receiving fax machine is equipped to handle long
documents. Many machines have a special setting which allows them
to receive documents that exceed the normal length.
Q: Can I transmit a page from a newspaper?
A: No. A newspaper page can jam in your document feeder. First, use a
copying machine to make an appropriately sized copy of the material
in the newspaper page, then transmit the copy.
Q: Can I transmit a page with correction fluid on it?
A: Yes, if the fluid is completely dry before you begin transmission.
Q: How can I be sure my fax was received?
A: Set your machine to print a confirmation report after each
transmission (see page 136).
