ERROR CODES

Fax machines use a telephone line. The same types of problems you experience
while making phone calls (such as noisy lines, crosstalk, disconnection during
conversation, weak signals) also occur with faxing. Telephone callers can deal
with the problems themselves (for example, by speaking a bit louder), but fax
machines cannot. Therefore some errors and line failures are to be expected.

When an error occurs, an error report is printed. This report includes an error
code. The following table lists common error codes and a few of the possible
causes. If any of these or any other error codes are persistent and the machine
does not work properly, contact a service technician.

NOTE: When an error occurs, it does not mean that you are doing anything

wrong or that your machine needs service. Only if the problem persists
should you call your service representative.

If the memory was not full, substitute reception may have been
disabled; switch substitute reception on.
