Cannot run the fax software

Troubleshooting

MAKE SURE THAT THE PRINTER MEMORY IS NOT FULL

The printer saves an incoming fax to the printer memory before it prints the fax. If the printer runs out of ink or runs out of paper while receiving the fax, then the printer saves the fax so you can print it later. However, if the printer memory is full, then the printer may not be able to receive more incoming faxes. An error message appears on the display when the printer memory is full. Resolve the error to free up space in the printer memory.

MAKE SURE THAT FAX FORWARDING IS DISABLED

1From the printer control panel, navigate to:

> Setup > OK > Fax Setup > OK > Ringing and Answering > OK > Fax Forward > OK

2Press the arrow buttons to scroll to Off, and then press OK .

INCREASE THE RINGER VOLUME

If you set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off), then increase the ringer volume.

MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE CORRECT MANUAL ANSWER CODE

If you set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off), then you need to press the correct code when a fax comes in so that the printer can receive it.

1From the printer control panel, navigate to:

> Setup > OK > Fax Setup > OK > Ringing and Answering > OK > Manual Pickup Code > OK

2Copy the manual answer code that appears on the display.

Note: To increase the security, you can change your manual pickup code to a number that only you know. You can enter up to 7 characters for your code. The valid characters are the digits 0–9 and the characters # and *.

The printer must be connected to a telephone, DSL, VoIP, or cable service before you can configure the fax settings in the fax software.

MAKE SURE A FAX DRIVER IS INSTALLED

The fax option is available for use only with the PostScript driver or the Universal Fax Driver. For information on installing these drivers, see the Software and Documentation CD.

MAKE SURE THE PRINTER IS CONNECTED TO A TELEPHONE LINE

You need to connect the printer to your telephone line (through a standard wall jack, a DSL filter, a VoIP adapter, or a cable modem) before you can open the fax software and configure the fax settings.
