Sending a Fax Abroad (Adding Pauses)

When sending a fax abroad, you may need to insert a pause within the number.

When communicating abroad, the distance becomes long, and the route becomes complicated. Because of this, you may not be able to connect to a recipient even by dialing an international telephone identification number, country code, and the recipient's fax number at a time. In this case, add a pause after the international telephone identification number. Because adding a pause provides an interval in the added position when dialing, it becomes easy to connect to the recipient.
