If you send a PC FAX message and get “RESULT:NG” on the Transmission

 

Verification Report, your machine may be out of memory. To gain extra memory,

 

you can turn off Memory Receive (see Turning off Memory Receive operations in

 

chapter 4 of the Advanced User’s Guide), print fax messages in memory (see

 

Printing a fax from the memory in chapter 4 of the Advanced User’s Guide) or

 

cancel a Delayed Fax or Polling Job. (see Canceling a fax in progress on page 35

 

and Checking and canceling waiting jobs in chapter 3 of the Advanced User’s

 

Guide.) If the problem continues, ask the telephone company to check your

 

telephone line.

 

 

 

 

If you often get transmission errors due to possible interference on the telephone

 

line, try changing the menu setting of Compatibility to Basic(for VoIP).

 

(See Telephone line interference / VoIP on page 100.)

Sent faxes are blank.

Make sure you are loading the document properly. (See Loading documents

 

on page 30.)

 

 

 

Poor fax send quality.

Try changing your resolution to Fine or S.Fine. Make a copy to check your

 

machine's scanner operation. If the copy quality is not good, clean the scanner.

Vertical black lines when sending.

Black vertical lines on faxes you send are typically caused by dirt or correction fluid
