Fax Machine, Printing services on board?

[zgwortz]

I'm cruising on the Carnival Dream on Saturday, and am highly likely to be putting in an offer on a house a day or two before the cruise. There's a reasonable chance a counter-offer might come in or some other bit of paperwork which requires me to print out some document, sign and/or correct it, and fax it back, while I'm on the cruise.

 

My fallback is to bring a portable printer and scanner along and do everything via email - but I'd like to avoid that if possible.

 

So, is there a way to Fax something from the ship? I vaguely recall seeing something about it, but can't find it in the Carnival FAQ. Also, can I *print* a PDF or scanned document on board? And in both cases, does anyone know the fees involved?

Printing was 50cents per page last time we printed something at the Internet Café.

Ask your Realtor if he/she has an electronic signature option such as Docusign or DotLoop. That way you can digitally sign the doc without printing it out. I am virtually paperless and it is so easy to get signatures without trying to work around everyone's schedules.
