M
AKE
SURE
THAT
YOU
HAVE
CONFIGURED
THE
CORRECT
SETTINGS
FOR
YOUR
SETUP
The fax settings depend on whether the printer is connected to its own fax line or shares the line with
other devices.
If the printer is sharing the telephone line with an answering machine, then make sure that the following
are set:
Auto Answer is On.
The printer picks up on a greater number of rings than the answering machine.
The printer picks up on the correct distinctive ring (if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service).
If the printer is sharing the telephone line with a telephone subscribed to voice mail, then make sure
that the following are set:
Auto Answer is Off (if you have only one number on the telephone line).
The printer picks up on the correct distinctive ring (if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service).
M
AKE
SURE
THAT
THE
PRINTER
IS
CONNECTED
TO
AN
ANALOG
PORT
The printer is an analog device. If you are using a PBX system, then make sure that the printer is
connected to an analog port on the PBX. You may need a digital line converter that converts digital
signals into analog signals.
M
AKE
SURE
THAT
THE
PRINTER
MEMORY
IS
NOT
FULL
The printer saves an incoming fax to the printer memory before it prints the fax. If the printer runs out
of ink or runs out of paper while receiving the fax, then the printer saves the fax so you can print it
later. However, if the printer memory is full, then the printer may not be able to receive more incoming
faxes. An error message appears on the display when the printer memory is full. Resolve the error to
free up space in the printer memory.
