to enter a pause (using the Pause One Touch key) after the dial prefix or international dialing code to tell your machine to wait for a dial tone.

If you have frequent problems communicating with a particular remote fax machine, try programming the number into one of your One Touch keys and then changing the One Touch Parameters for that One Touch key (see page 31).

Lastly, either your OKIFAX or the remote fax ma- chine may need servicing. Try sending a fax to another location to check your machine.

You sent a fax but the image the remote fax machine received was very poor. If your document had a lot of small type, complex illustrations, photos, or was very light or very dark, try changing your resolution and contrast settings (see “Loading Documents,” page 36). Copy the document on your OKIFAX to preview how it will transmit. The problem may be caused by telephone line interference. Try sending the document again later.

You sent a fax but it was received completely blank. Make sure that you have loaded your document face down.

You keep getting reports you do not want. Message Confirmation Reports can be set to print automatically after each single or multiple-location transmission; Error Reports can be set to print after each failed transmission or reception. Check your user function settings and turn off the reports you do not want. See the chapters on Customizing OKIFAX and Reports.

The image received on your OKIFAX was very poor. Contact the person sending you the fax and ask them to change their resolution and contrast settings. Ask the person to make a copy of the document on their fax machine to make sure it is working properly. Then ask them to send the fax again. If you still have a problem, try making a copy of a document on your machine to make sure it is working properly. If blotches or recur- ring marks appear, print a cleaning page.

You tried dialing with a One Touch key or an Auto Dial code but nothing happened. Make sure that something is pro- grammed into the One Touch key or Auto Dial code you are using. Check the fax number to make sure it was entered correctly (see the Dial Directories chap- ter). When you are dialing with an Auto Dial code, be sure to press the Auto Dial key before you enter the code. If your OKIFAX has the Auto Start feature turned off, you will have to press the Start key before dialing will begin (see page 61).

Your OKIFAX does not answer the phone or receive faxes. First make sure that your OKIFAX is turned on and the power cord is connected to the AC outlet. If you have a handset connected to your OKIFAX, check that there is a dial tone on the phone line. Also check the reception mode you are using—your OKIFAX will not automatically receive faxes in manual answering mode [TEL]. In TAD mode, the answering machine answers the call first. See Setting the Answering Mode, page 22.
