HAPPENS
IF
THERE
IS
A
POWER
FAILURE
If a power failure occurs, the fax machine keeps the
following data in the memory: the numbers set in
the phone book and the reports, while the documents
present in the memory will be lost.
After a power failure, the date and time on the fax machine
and cordless phone will also be lost so they will have to
be reset by carrying out the procedure described in the
"To set the date and time for the first time" section of
the "How to get started quickly" chapter.
W
HAT
HAPPENS
IF
THE
PAPER
OR
INK
HAS
RUN
OUT
If, during reception, the paper runs out or gets jammed,
the ink runs out or the operator console is raised,
the machine stops printing and the display shows the rel-
evant message and the document you are receiving is
temporarily recorded in the memory. Once the prob-
lem has been solved, the fax machine resumes printing.
I
F
THE
TRANSMISSION
IS
UNSUCCESSFUL
If transmission is not completed due to errors on the
line or fax machine, the error LED "
" lights up and a
short beep is emitted; in this case, the fax machine auto-
matically prints the transmission report (see "To print
reports and lists", chapter "Transmission and recep-
tion operations"), on which an error code indicates the
cause of the error (you will find a list of all the error codes
later).
W
HAT
HAPPENS
WHEN
A
DOCUMENT
IS
PLACED
IN
THE
AUTOMATIC
DOCUMENT
FEEDER
WHILE
THE
FAX
MACHINE
IS
PRINTING
If you place a document in the automatic document feeder
while the fax machine is making a copy, printing a report
or printing a document being received, the fax machine
behaves as follows:
• if it is making a copy, the fax machine will stop print-
ing and display a series of prompts to enable you to
restore it to its initial stand-by mode;
• if it is printing a report, the fax machine will stop
printing and display a series of prompts to enable you
to restore it to its initial stand-by mode;
• if it is receiving a document:
- it will stop printing and start to save the document
received. The display will show the message "RX
IN MEMORY".
Having saved the document, the display shows the mes-
sage "DOC IN MEMORY".
At this point, the fax machine will prompt you to remove
the document from the document feeder. The fax ma-
chine will then print the saved document.
