5.Verify that the telephone service supports analog fax.
●If using ISDN or digital PBX, contact your service provider for information about configuring to an analog fax line.
●If using a VoIP service, change the Fax Speed setting to Slow(V.29) or disable Fast(V.34) from the control panel. Ask if your service provider supports fax and for the recommended fax modem speed. Some companies might require an adapter.
●If using a DSL service, ensure that a filter is included on the phone line connection to the product. Contact the DSL service provider or purchase a DSL filter if you do not have one. If a DSL filter is installed, try another since these filters can be defective.

Fax error messages
Alert and warning messages appear temporarily and might require you to acknowledge the message by touching the OK button to resume or by touching the Cancel
button to cancel the job. With certain warnings, the job might not complete or the print quality might be affected. If the alert or warning message is related to printing and the auto-continue feature is on, the product will attempt to resume printing the job after the warning has appeared for 10 seconds without acknowledgement.
