Alternatively, you can enable the

COLOUR DIRECT TX

setting (

p. 9-6) that converts colour faxes to

black & white if the other party’s fax machine does not support colour faxing, thus enabling you to send
colour documents to any fax machine without an error occurring.

There may be other documents being sent from memory.
• Allow time for those documents to finish sending.

An error may have occurred during sending.
• Print an ACTIVITY REPORT and check for an error. (

The telephone line may not be working properly.
• Make sure there is a dial tone when you press

Hook

or when you lift the handset of the telephone connected

to the machine. If there is no dial tone, contact your local telephone company.

The receiving fax machine may not be a G3 fax machine.
• Make sure the receiving fax machine is compatible with the machine (which is a G3 fax machine).

Faxes sent from the machine are spotted or dirty.

The receiving fax machine may not be working properly.
• Check the machine by making a copy (

Reference Guide). If the copy is clear, the problem may be in the

receiving fax machine. If the copy is spotted or dirty, clean the scanner components. (
