TRANSMITTING

❏Cannot send a document?

Remove the document, stack it and feed it into the fax correctly. See p. 49.

Check the content of the One-touch or Coded Speed Dialling button and be sure it was registered correctly. See pp. 36, 38.

·Is the other party's fax out of paper?

Call the other party and be sure paper is installed in the other party's fax unit.

·Can you hear a dial tone when you press [HOOK] or when you lift the handset?

If you cannot hear a dial tone, make sure the telephone line is connected properly. See p. 14.

·Is the document scanning glass clean?

If the scanning glass is dirty, clean it. See p. 100.
