- Make suer the file is postscript (if it is not, use enscript and turn
- it into a postscript file).
- Use lpr and specify the phone number and the name using comment like:
- %%NXFaxNumber: 9,1-800-234-5678
- %%NXFaxTo: me
- %%NXFaxNotify: YES
- %%NXFaxHires: YES
-
- It seems to work under both 3.0 and 2.x.
- Anyone want to give us a shell script?
-
- My question is, how do I specify to send a fax at 11:00pm through
- command line under 3.0? Thanks.
