Errors Often Occur When You Send a Fax
Check 1: Is the power turned on?
You cannot send faxes if the power is turned off. Press the ON button to turn the power on.
If you disconnected the power cord without turning off the power (one of the buttons on the operation panel is lit), reconnecting it turns on the power automatically.
If you disconnected the power cord after pressing the ON button to turn off the power (no buttons on the operation panel are lit), reconnect it, then press the ON button to turn on the power.
If the power was turned off due to power failure, etc., the power is automatically turned on when the power failure is resolved.
ImportantConfirm that all lamps on the operation panel are off before unplugging the power cord, then unplug the power cord.
If a power failure occurs or you unplug the power cord, all faxes stored in the machine's memory are deleted.
For details on how to unplug the power cord, refer to Notice for Unplugging the Power Cord.
NoteIf the faxes stored in the machine's memory are deleted by a power failure or unplugging the power cord, the list of the faxes deleted from the machine's memory (MEMORY CLEAR REPORT) will be printed after turning the machine on.
For details, see Summary of Reports and Lists.
Check 2: Is the document being sent from memory or the fax being received into memory?
When the message for the transmission/reception is displayed on the LCD, a fax is being sent from/received into machine's memory. Wait until the transmission/reception is complete.

Delete contents in memory, then send a fax again.
Check 4: Is the telephone line type set correctly?

Check: Have you already selected the recipient from the redial history, or already dialed a number by using the Numeric buttons?
You can dial one recipient by selecting from the redial history or by using the Numeric buttons as the recipient of sequential broadcasting.
If you already have dialed by selecting from the redial history or by using the Numeric button, select the recipient from the coded speed dial.
Check: Check the telephone line condition or the connection.
If the telephone line or connection is poor, reducing the transmission start speed may correct the error.
