• Make sure that the document is loaded properly in
the feeder of the transmitting machine. Make a
copy or print a report to confirm the printing ability
of your machine.
• It is important to select a paper that is appropriate
for the thermal transfer printer in the machine. We
recommend using laser quality paper that has a
very smooth finish. Copier paper will work, but it
sometimes tends to yield a lighter print quality.
• Ask the other party to send higher contrast
documents. If the contrast is still too low, your
machine may need service. Make a copy or print a
report to check your machine's printing ability.
• Noise on the telephone line may cause distortion.
Have the other party try sending the document
again.
• The print head may be dirty. See Print head on
page 119.
• Make a copy or print a report on your machine. If
the copy or report is also distorted, your machine
may need service.
• Make sure the operation panel is completely closed
(press down on both sides of the panel).
• Any dirt or material on the scanning glass will
cause spots to appear on copies and transmitted
faxes. Clean the scanning glass as explained on
page 120.
• If reception or copying takes place continuously for
a long time, the print head may overheat. Turn off
the power and let it cool down. If overheating
frequently occurs, try changing the print contrast
setting to LIGHT (see page 29).
