Sending a Fax Abroad (Adding Pauses)
When making an overseas call, you may need to add a pause
to the fax number.
Since signals are transmitted over long distances across a
complicated channel, your call may not be connected without
adding a pause after the country code or in front of the fax
number. By adding a pause, enough time elapses before the
machine starts dialing the number again.
