Problem	Cause & Solution
I cannot send documents.	L The other party’s fax machine is busy or has run out of recording paper. Try
	again.
	L The other party’s machine is not a fax machine. Check with the other party.
	L The other party’s fax machine failed to answer the fax automatically. Send
	the fax manually (page 29).
	L The memory is full of received documents and the quick scan (feature #34
	on page 47) is ON. Turn this feature OFF, and send the fax again.

I cannot send a fax overseas.	L Use the overseas transmission mode (feature #23 on page 46).

10.3.5 Fax – receiving

Problem	Cause & Solution
I cannot receive documents.	L You may have subscribed to a voice mail service due to service packs
	offered by your telephone company. Fax and voice message reception may
	not be possible when voice mail is activated so we recommend you to:
	– contact your telephone company and request to deactivate voice mail
	service, or
	– subscribe to a Distinctive Ring service (page 36).
	L The ink film is empty. Replace the ink film with a new one (page 11).

I cannot receive documents	L The receiving mode is set to TEL mode.
automatically.	Change the receiving mode:
	– TAM/FAX mode (page 34) or FAX ONLY mode (page 34).
	L The time taken to answer the call is too long. Decrease the number of rings
	in feature #06 or feature 061 (page 44).
	L The greeting message is too long. Record a shorter message (page 39).
	L Make sure that the Distinctive Ring of feature #31 is set properly (page 46).
	If you do not subscribe to the Distinctive Ring service offered by your local
	telephone company, this feature should be OFF.

The display shows	L The receiving mode is set to FAX ONLY mode and the incoming call is not
“CONNECTING.....”, but	a fax. Change the receiving mode:
faxes are not received.	– TAM/FAX mode (page 34) or TEL mode (page 33).
