Just in case …

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

LCD

messages, 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.
