[LUG] Sending a Fax

 

Happy new year everyone,
I'm having trouble sending a fax.
I have saved the document as a text file.
I have then tried sending it via kdeprintfax.
I get the following error


Converting input files to PostScript


Mime type: text/plain
Command: enscript -M %psu -E -p %out %in
[ 1 pages * 1 copy
left in /tmp/kde-Mike/kdeprintfax_9n9hI5uR
1 lines were wrapped

Sending fax to *********** (******)

Sending to fax using: /usr/bin/fax NAME="'Mike'" DEV='modem' PAGE='a4' send '01626834452' '/tmp/kde-Mike/kdeprintfax_9n9hI5uR'
/bin/sh: /usr/bin/fax: No such file or directory


I am using Suse 9.2 and have gone into yast and searched and installed everything available to do with faxing,
one program listed is send fax, but typing this into the run box doesent work.Nor does typing it into a shell.
What is the simplest way of sending a text file to a fax number?
