You have to go into the settings on the fax machine. There will be an option for a prefix number. Someone put a 9 in there. Having the 9 in there will make it dial a 9 then the number you are trying to faxt too. Remove the 9.
So your fax machine defaults are set to dial a "9" before the number and you want to change this setting - am I correct?
If you are using the fax machine without connecting it to a pc, then you can change the default settings by using the keys on the printer. Go to "menu" and press it, then use the up and down arrows to navagate the choices until you see "fax set up" and then push "ok" or "enter". Then continue scrolling with the arrow keys until you see "my location" or "set up dialing".
If you are using the fax machine through the pc and its connected tot he pc, then the default dialing options are probably set in the computer. If this is the case, go to your control panel, look for phone & modem and click on it. Then browse the set up choices until you find the area code and dialing prefix entered for your location and correct it to what it should be.
