Specific errors
Let's quickly summarize the error codes you may see on an error report:
Dialing errors
.0.3, The remote unit didn't respond, the call couldn't be completed or
D
.0.8
was pressed during dialing. Re-try the call. If your machine repeats the mess-
D
age, call the remote fax unit's operator and verify that unit is operating prop-
erly.
.0.2
The remote unit is busy. Try the call again.
D
.0.6, Either the remote unit didn't respond, the call somehow didn't go through or
D
.0.7
was pressed during dialing. Try the call again.
D
STOP
Reception errors
.1.1
The calling fax machine didn't respond to your fax machine. This can hap-
R
pen if someone dials a wrong number or if the remote machine restricts
access through use of a passcode.
.1.2
The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and
R
receives only
-
Group 3 (see Glossary, pages 3.17–3.20) fax communica-
ITU
T
tion, the industry standard since the early 1980s.
.1.4
Someone pressed
at the receiving fax machine.
R
STOP
.2.3
Poor phone line conditions made fax communication impossible. Call some-
R
one at the remote machine's location.
.3.1
The sending fax machine detected too many errors from the receiving
R
fax machine.
.3.3
The sending fax machine is incompatible or had a document feeder problem
R
during transmission.
.3.4
Poor phone line conditions may have prevented your fax machine from prop-
R
erly printing some or all of the pages it received.
.4.2
Either the line disconnected before transmission or the transmitting fax
R
machine needs maintenance.
.4.4
The fax machine has reached its memory capacity.
R
.5.1,
reception failed (perhaps due to line noise).
R
ECM
.5.2

Transmission errors
.1.1
The remote fax machine didn't respond to your machine. Call someone at the
T
remote machine's location.
.1.4
Someone pressed
T
(the very first part of the fax communication, when the two units "agree" on
STOP
the settings they'll share).
.2.1
Either the phone line disconnected during transmission or fax communica-
T
tion became impossible due to bad phone line conditions. Try the call again.
.2.2
The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and
T
receives only
the industry standard since the early 1980s.
.2.3
Bad phone line conditions made fax communication impossible. Conditions
T
can change rapidly, so try the call again later.
.3.1
The page counter in your fax machine detected a document feeder error dur-
T
ing transmission. Carefully re-insert the document into the feeder and re-try
the call.
.4.1
The telephone line disconnected during the transmission of a page because
T
of excessive modem errors or because the remote unit ran out of paper. Try
the call again.
.4.2
After transmission began, poor line conditions developed. Try the call again.
T
.4.4
Poor line conditions prevented transmission. Re-try the call.
T
.5.1,
transmission failed (perhaps due to line noise). Conditions can change
