Specific errors

Let’s quickly summarize the error codes you may see on an error report:

Dialing errors

D.0.3, The remote unit didn’t respond, the call couldn’t be completed or STOP

D.0.8 was pressed during dialing. Re-try the call. If your machine repeats the mess- age, call the remote fax unit’s operator and verify that unit is operating prop- erly.

D.0.2 The remote unit is busy. Try the call again.

D.0.6, Either the remote unit didn’t respond, the call somehow didn’t go through or D.0.7 STOP was pressed during dialing. Try the call again.

Reception errors

R.1.1 The calling fax machine didn’t respond to your fax machine. This can hap- pen if someone dials a wrong number or if the remote machine restricts access through use of a passcode.

R.1.2 The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and receives only ITU-TGroup 3 (see Glossary, pages 3.17–3.20) fax communica- tion, the industry standard since the early 1980s.

R.1.4 Someone pressed STOP at the receiving fax machine.

R.2.3 Poor phone line conditions made fax communication impossible. Call some- one at the remote machine’s location.

R.3.1 The sending fax machine detected too many errors from the receiving fax machine.

R.3.3 The sending fax machine is incompatible or had a document feeder problem during transmission.

R.3.4 Poor phone line conditions may have prevented your fax machine from prop- erly printing some or all of the pages it received.

R.4.2 Either the line disconnected before transmission or the transmitting fax machine needs maintenance.

R.4.4 The fax machine has reached its memory capacity.

R.5.1, ECM reception failed (perhaps due to line noise).

R.5.2

Just in case …

Transmission errors

T.1.1 The remote fax machine didn’t respond to your machine. Call someone at the remote machine’s location.

T.1.4 Someone pressed STOP at the remote unit in the middle of the handshake (the very first part of the fax communication, when the two units “agree” on the settings they’ll share).

T.2.1 Either the phone line disconnected during transmission or fax communica- tion became impossible due to bad phone line conditions. Try the call again.

T.2.2 The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and receives only ITU-TGroup 3 (see “Glossary,” page 3.17) fax communication, the industry standard since the early 1980s.

T.2.3 Bad phone line conditions made fax communication impossible. Conditions can change rapidly, so try the call again later.

T.3.1 The page counter in your fax machine detected a document feeder error dur- ing transmission. Carefully re-insert the document into the feeder and re-try the call.

T.4.1 The telephone line disconnected during the transmission of a page because of excessive modem errors or because the remote unit ran out of paper. Try the call again.

T.4.2 After transmission began, poor line conditions developed. Try the call again.

T.4.4 Poor line conditions prevented transmission. Re-try the call.

T.5.1, ECM transmission failed (perhaps due to line noise). Conditions can change T.5.2, rapidly, so try the call again later.

T.5.3
