Cause
The fax was not sent because
of an error.
The phone line is not
connected correctly.
The phone dialing method is
not available.
An error occurred with the
phone line.
The destination machine is
abnormal.
An incorrect fax number is
used.
The number is not for fax
number.
You forgot the external access
number.
Remedy
Check the Transmission Results in the
Transmission Report - Job Undelivered. If a
status code is displayed, refer to "Status
Code" (P.609).
The machine is equipped with connectors to
which to connect phone lines.
Communication is enabled only when the
phone line is connected to the correct
connector.
When the cable connection is correct, the
On-hook feature allows you to call via general
lines.
Specify the same dialing method as the one
(Tone/10pps) subscribed for the machine.
Use a telephone near the machine to check
whether you can make a phone call. If the
phone call is disabled, the problem is in the
phone line, not in the machine.
The data cannot be sent if the machine of the
recipient is turned off, is set to "manual"
receiving mode, or does not support G3
reception.
Call the recipient to confirm the machine
condition.
Check the fax number and try sending again.
If no peep sound is heard from the receiver
when you call the number, the number is not
for a fax number.
When calling from an extension line, the
external access number is required.
When dialing, dial the external access
number such as "0", and then dial the fax
number.
When the switchboard is changed and you
cannot send faxes, try the external access
number "0*" instead of "0".
