Problem Cause & Solution
I cannot receive documents
automatically.
LYour greeting message on the answering machine is too long. Shorten the
message. Record a message up to 10 seconds long.
LThe answering machine rings too many times. Set to 1 or 2 rings.
I cannot receive voice
messages.
LCheck if the answering machine is turned ON and connected to the unit
properly (page 42).
LSet the number of rings on the answering machine to 1 or 2.
I pressed the remote access
code to access the answering
machine remotely, but the line
was disconnected.
LThe code may include “#” which is used for certain features provided by
telephone companies. Change the code on the answering machine to
another number which does not include “#”.
Callers complain that they
cannot send a document.
LThere is no room left in memory of your answering machine to record voice
messages. See the operating instructions of the answering machine and
erase unnecessary messages.
LYou set the answering machine to only give a greeting message.
