It will be a case of trying a few things, e.g.:
Code:
echo "" | fixfax

or

Code:
fixfax <<EEOOFF

EEOFF

Note the intentional blank line, which is the carriage return/enter character.

or:
Put the following into a file called fixfax.exp and call it from the original script instead of calling fixfax directly:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn /path/to/fixfax
expect "please press enter:"
send "\r"
expect eof

Confirm where expect is installed on your system and change the header accordingly.
Confirm what text fixfax spits out before wanting the enter key hit and the change the
expect "please press enter:" line accordinlgy.
