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

All Commands In Use

Your fax machine has all of its 50 possible

 

delayed commands (automatic redialing counts

 

as one) stored in memory and cannot accept

 

another. Delete an existing command by using

 

REVIEW COMMANDS, or wait until your fax has

 

completed one of the delayed commands.

Already Stored

You tried to enter a blocked number which is

 

already entered in the blocked numbers list.

 

Enter a different blocked number.

You tried to erase an F-Code box which has

 

received at least one document. Print the docu-

 

ment(s), then try again.

. . . or . . .

The optional paper cassette is open. Close it.

Check Paper Size

Communication Error

A communication error disrupted the reception

 

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

 

to contact the other person and have him/her re-

 

try the transmission. (The problem may be

 

entirely with his/her machine, phone line, etc.)

Enter No.(0-32)

You tried to enter a call group number greater

 

than 32. Your machine can maintain 32 call

 

groups, numbered 1–32(call group 0 covers all

 

the groups). Determine the correct call group

 

and re-enter its identifier number.

Enter No.(1-99)

You tried to request “0” copies from your fax,

 

which can create 1–99 copies of a document.
