Question: I am having trouble sending international faxes?
Answer: First make sure that your country and city codes are
correct.
You can test this by dialing the number from a regular phone and if you
get fax tones when the call is completed then your numbers are correct.
Make sure that there are enough pauses in your dial string. It may help
if you put a #
at the end of the phone number before the pauses so the telephone
switch knows where the international number ends. This may take
some testing. If you still can not complete your call, contact the
customer service line at 3-3440.
