10.3.4 Fax sending10.3.5 Fax receiving
Problem Cause & Solution
I cannot send documents. LThe other partys fax machine is busy or has run out of recording
paper. Try again.
LThe other partys machine is not a fax machine. Check with the
other party.
LThe other partys fax machine failed to answer the fax
automatically. Send the fax manually (page 47).
I cannot send a fax
overseas.
LUse the overseas transmission mode (feature #23, on page 70).
LAdd two pauses at the end of the telephone number or dial
manually.
The other party complains
that letters on their
received document are
distorted or not clear.
LIf your line has special telephone services such as call waiting, the
service may have been activated during fax transmission. Connect
the unit to a line that does not have these services.
LAn extension telephone on the same line is off the hook. Hang up
the extension telephone and try again.
LTry copying the document with this unit. If the copied image is clear,
there may be something wrong with the other partys machine.
The other party complains
that black lines, white
lines or smudges appear
on their received
document.
LThe scanner glass or rollers are dirty with correction fluid, etc.
Clean them (page 92). Please do not insert a document before
correction fluid has dried completely.
Problem Cause & Solution
I cannot receive
documents.
LWhen you have a single telephone line and subscribe to a voice
mail service, you must also subscribe to a Distinctive Ring service
(page 55).
LThe ink film is empty. Replace the ink film with a new one (page
15).
I cannot receive
documents automatically.
LThe receiving mode is set to TEL mode.
Change the receiving mode:
TAM/FAX mode (page 52) or FAX ONLY mode (page 53).
LThe time taken to answer the call is too long. Decrease the number
of rings in feature #06 (page 69).
LThe greeting message is too long. Record a shorter message
(page 59).
The display shows
CONNECTING....., but
faxes are not received.
LThe receiving mode is set to FAX ONLY mode and the incoming
call is not a fax. Change the receiving mode:
TAM/FAX mode (page 52) or TEL mode (page 51).
A blank sheet is ejected. LIf a blank sheet is ejected after the received document is printed
out, the size of the document sent by the other party is as large as,
or larger than, the recording paper, or the receiving reduction rate
is not programmed correctly. Program the proper rate in feature
#36 (page 71).
LThe other party placed the document in their fax machine facing
the wrong way. Check with the other party.
