8.3.6 Using an answering machine

Problem
I cannot receive documents
automatically.
I cannot receive voice
messages.
I pressed the remote access
code to access the answering
machine remotely, but the line
was disconnected.
Callers complain that they
cannot send a document.
8.3.7 If a power failure occurs
L The unit will not function.
L The unit is not designed for making emergency telephone calls when the power fails. Alternative arrangements
should be made for access to emergency services.
L Fax transmission and reception will be interrupted.
L If delayed transmission (feature #25 on page 31) is programmed and a power failure prevents the document from
being sent at the set time, the document will be sent after power is restored.
L If any documents are stored in the memory (i.e. during copy, fax transmission or fax reception, faxes received in
memory), they will be lost.
L When power is restored, a power down report will be printed out stating which fax items in the memory have been
erased.

Cause & Solution
L Your greeting message on the answering machine is too long. Shorten the
message. Record a message up to 10 seconds long.
L The answering machine rings too many times. Set to 1 or 2 rings.
L Check if the answering machine is turned ON and connected to the unit
properly (page 25).
L Set the number of rings on the answering machine to 1 or 2.
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 "#".
L There is no room left in 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.
