Oki 56801 manual nothing happened. You must set up a mailbox before

￿Your fax machine disconnected before you could

answer a voice request. You must answer a voice request while the warbling tone is being emitted. When you hear the warbling tone, press the Hook/V. Request Key after picking up your handset.

￿Someone tried to send you a confidential fax but

nothing happened. You must set up a mailbox before

anyone can send you a confidential fax. See “Receiv- ing Confidential Faxes” on page 46 in Advanced Operations. Make sure the person sending you the fax knows the correct mail box number.

￿Your fax machine will not poll a remote fax machine.

Call the person at the remote fax machine and make sure that they have loaded documents and set their fax machine in polling transmission mode. Check also if their fax machine uses either standard polling transmission or ITU polling transmission.

￿Your fax machine is connected to a PBX and you can

not dial out. You must enter your access digit before

the telephone number for each number that you dial or program into your machine. Also, your fax machine must be programmed for PBX operations before it will work. See “Connecting to a PBX” on page 28 in Installation.

￿You want to answer an external telephone but your

fax machine always answers first. If you are using an

external telephone, change the user function setting for ring response on your fax machine. See “Custom- izing Features & Operations” on page 53.

￿Your received faxes sometimes look distorted. If the

document received is wider or longer than the paper you have loaded into your paper tray, your fax machine automatically reduces either the width or the length of the document to fit on your paper. This type of problem could also be communication related.

￿You are constantly receiving unsolicited advertising

on your fax machine. Try using the closed network function. See “Rejecting Unsolicited Fax Messages” on page 39.

￿Your fax machine does not immediately switch to TEL mode when you make or receive a voice call. Try

pressing the Stop key. Your fax machine will return to standby mode so that you can converse. This con- dition may happen infrequently due to telephone line conditions, or the type of external telephone used. If this problem happens often, consult your dealer.
