Line error
Problem Solution
LINE ERROR appears in
the display.
A line error occurs when your machine cannot
communicate correctly with another fax machine. The
error is usually due to a problem on the phone line.
Try faxing again. If unsuccessful, check the following:
• Check the connection. The cord from the TEL. LINE
jack to the wall jack should be no longer than six feet.
• Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the
same telephone line.
• Check with the other party to make sure their fax
machine is functioning properly.
• Have your telephone line checked for line noise.
• Try connecting the machine to a different phone line.
• If the error persists, the machine may need service.
