Figuring out communications problems

Occasionally during transmissions, your fax machine will detect a problem with the phone line or will encounter some other trouble in transmission or reception. When it does, it will alert you with an alarm. You can further identify the problem with LCD messages, printed check messages and error reports. In the next few pages, we’ll tell you more about these troubleshooting methods.

Alarm

Your fax machine will sound the alarm tone — a series of short beeps — if it suffers either of these two problems:

•It has trouble transmitting or receiving.

•It runs out of paper.

LCD error messages

What you see on the LCD	What it means/What to do
Reset Document	Your document wasn’t inserted correctly, or the
	fax to which you’re sending can’t handle the doc-
	ument’s page length. Reset the page and try
	again.
Insert Document	There was no document in the document feeder
	when you tried to send a fax or make a copy.
	Place a document in the feeder and try again.
Hang Up Phone	The optional handset is off-hook. Hang it up,
	making sure the upper part of the handset
	presses down on the “hook” button.
Call For Service	The scanner lamp is dim or inoperable. Make
	repeated copies to help evaporate any internal
	moisture. If that doesn’t resolve the problem, call
	your authorized Muratec dealer or Muratec
	Customer Support.

	or transmission. If you were transmitting, press
	ENTER to clear the error message and then re-try
	the transmission. If you were receiving a fax, try
