Why is it important that a Fax machine doesn't run out of paper?

Answer 1

If a fax machine runs out of paper, it won't be able to receive any faxes that are sent to it.

Answer 2

Well now, if someone sends you a 5-page Fax, and you only have 3 pages in the machine, you won't be able to claim the million dollar prize you won because that information is on the last two pages. So you see it's quite important.

Answer 3

That's like asking why it's important that your bathroom doesn't run out of toilet paper. The job's not done until the paperwork is finished!
