Communications problems

Occasionally during transmissions, your fax machine will detect a problem with
the phone line or will encounter some other trouble in transmission or reception.
When it does, it will alert you with an alarm. You can further identify the problem
with displayed messages as well as printed check messages and error reports. In the
next few pages, we'll tell you more about these troubleshooting methods.

Alarm

Your fax machine will sound the alarm tone --- a series of short beeps --- if it suffers
either of these two problems:
It has trouble transmitting or receiving.
It runs out of paper.

than you indicated in your page-numbering

numbering function.

Call For Service The scanner lamp is dim or inoperable.
Make repeated copies to help evaporate any
internal moisture. If that doesn't resolve the
problem, call your authorized Muratec dealer or
Muratec Customer Support.
Check Rx Paper Size You've told your fax that the paper cassette

holds legal-sized paper. If you try to use letter-
sized paper without returning the pin to the upper
holes (see pages 1.13–1.14), your fax will sound
an alarm and display the this message when you
try to print.
Put the pin in the proper holes.
