Question

How do I send a fax?

Answer

A few offices on campus still have traditional fax machines in the event you must send a fax.

To fax locally (even across campus) you must dial a 9 and then the 7 digit number.  For long distance, use 3 pauses before the long distance code.

If your fax is not going through, use the hook or monitor feature to dial manually.  Then you can hear if the call is going through.  Wait to enter the long distance code until you are prompted, and press the start button when you hear the other fax machine pick up.
