Transmission errors
T .1.1 The remote fax machine did not respond to your machine.
Call someone at the remote machine.
T .1.4 Someone pressed STOP at the remote unit in the middle of the hand-
shake (the very first part of the fax communication, when the two
units “agree” on the settings they will share).
T .2.1 Either the phone line disconnected during transmission or fax com-
munication became impossible due to bad phone line conditions.
Re-try the call.
T .2.2 The two fax machines were incompatible. Your fax machine sends and
receives only
ITU - T Group 3 fax communication, the industry standard
since the early 1980s.
T .2.3 Bad phone line conditions made fax communication impossible.
Conditions can change rapidly, so try the call again later.
T .3.1 During transmission, your machine’s bult-in page counter detected a
possible error in the document feeder.
Carefully put the document back into the feeder and try the call again.
T .4.1 The telephone line disconnected during the transmission of a page
because of excessive modem errors or because the remote unit ran out
of paper. Try the call again.
T .4.2 After transmission began, poor line conditions developed.
Try the call again.
T .4.4 Poor line conditions prevented transmission.
Try the call again.
T .5.1, T .5.2 ECM transmission failed.
T .5.3 Conditions can change rapidly, so Try the call again later.
“Check Message” printouts
When your machine detects an error on a fax call, it produces an error printout
headed by the words “Check Message.” This printout lists the following information
about the transmission:
• The resulting error code
• A communications error message (see “What error messages can mean,” below)
• The phone number of the fax machine with which your machine had attempted
to communicate
What error messages can mean
The error messages on Check Message printouts can mean a variety of things.
Here is a brief summary:
