sending machine has a color fax,
the machine's ‘handshake’ will
ask that the fax be sent as black &
white. If the sending machine has
the ability to convert it, the color
fax will be stored in the memory
as a black & white fax.
Replace the ink cartridges. (See Replacing
the ink cartridges on page 167.)
