Solution 1: Clear any paper jams and make sure paper is loaded in the input tray

Solution: The product might have a paper jam or be out of paper. If you have Backup Fax Reception enabled, the product might have stored the fax in memory upon reception. After clearing the paper jam or loading paper in the input tray, the product automatically begins printing all the unprinted faxes from memory, in the order they were received. If you do not have Backup Fax Reception enabled, or if the fax was not stored in memory for some reason (for example, if the product was out of memory), ask the sender to resend the fax.
