The power is on, but no
transmission takes place.
• Make sure that the receiving machine has paper.

into the TEL. LINE jack, and not the TEL. SET jack.
• If the receiving machine is in manual mode with no
attendant, reception will not be possible.

• Press the SPEAKER key and check for a dial tone.
Nothing is printed at the
receiving end.
• Make sure that the document for transmission is
placed face up in the auto document feeder, or
face down on the document glass.

received at the other end.
• Noise on the telephone line may cause distortion.
Try sending the document again.
• Make a copy of the document on your machine. If
the copy is also distorted, your machine may need
service.
