If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 3: Make sure the glass is clean

Solution: If you are sending a fax from the glass, make a copy to check the quality of the printout. If the quality of the printout is poor, clean the glass.

Cause: The glass of the product might have been dirty. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 4: Check the receiving fax machine for problems

Solution: Try calling the fax number from a telephone and listen for fax tones. If you cannot hear fax tones, the receiving fax might not be turned on or connected, or a voice mail service could be interfering with the recipient's phone line. You can also ask the recipient to check the receiving fax machine for any problems.

Cause: The receiving fax machine was having problems.

Solution 5: Use the Lighter/Darker setting to darken the original when sending the fax

Solution: Make a copy to check the quality of the printout. If the printout is too light, you can darken it by adjusting the Lighter/Darker setting when sending the fax.

Cause: The Lighter/Darker setting might have been set too light. If you were sending a faded, washed out, or handwritten fax, or a document with a watermark (such as a red seal or stamp), you can change the Lighter/Darker setting to send the fax darker than the original.

Parts of a fax I sent are cut off

Solution: Make sure the receiving fax machine can accept the paper size you are using. If not, ask the recipient if the receiving fax machine has a fit to page setting they can use to reduce the incoming fax to fit standard paper size such as letter or A4.

Cause: Some fax machines cannot accept faxes larger than letter or A4 paper. The fax was larger than letter or A4 paper.
