CLEAN UP SCANNER

The scanner is dirty; clean the white roller and the glass strip under the roller with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free cloth. You’ll need to lift the two release levers to release the white roller; be sure to lock them in place when you’re through. During cleaning, we recommend you unplug the power cord for safety.

COMM.ERROR

A poor quality phone line resulted in a communications error. Try the call again.

CONNECTION FAIL

You have requested a polling call from another party, but the other fax machine is not in Poll Waiting mode.

COVER OPEN

The cover is not completely closed.
