Problem Cause & Solution
I cannot receive documents
automatically.
L Your greeting message on the answering machine is too long. Shorten the
message. Record a message less than 10 seconds long.
L The answering machine rings too many times. Set to 1 or 2 rings.
I cannot receive voice
messages.
L Check if the answering machine is turned ON and connected to the unit
properly (page 50).
L Set 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.
L The 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.
L There is no room left in the memory of your answering machine to record
voice messages. See the operating instructions of the answering machine
and erase unnecessary messages.
L You set the answering machine to only give a greeting message.
