Facsimile (Fax) Machines
Fax machines operate on normal telephone lines. If you have a fax machine, you can order a separate “dedicated” telephone line for it, with a separate telephone number, which is convenient, or save money by using your regular line for both phone and fax. If you do this, you'll probably do a lot of switching back and forth, though devices do exist which can route calls to either a fax or telephone depending on the type of call. When you send a fax, you'll use the fax machine to call another fax machine by dialing the telephone number, with area code if necessary.
