There's kfax at least. And I'm sure you can print to the fax using kde print 
manager. 

I had just been thinking along the lines of a single app to do it all (like my 
answering machine). But after all these responses, I've seen the light. :) 

I guess it's more logical to not do it that way. Just printing to the fax is, 
IMHO, a better solution.

Thanks.
