If you think there is a problem with the way your faxes look, make a copy first. If the copy looks
good, the problem may not be your machine. Check the chart below and follow the troubleshooting
tips.

Printing or receiving faxes

Difficulties

Suggestions

Condensed print

Horizontal streaks

Top and bottom sentences are
cut off

Missing lines

Usually this is caused by a poor telephone connection. If your copy looks good,
you probably had a bad connection, with static or interference on the telephone
line. Ask the other party to send the fax again.

Poor print quality

See Improving the print quality on page 117.

Vertical black lines when receiving

The corona wire for printing may be dirty. Clean the corona wire. (See Cleaning
the corona wire
on page 140.
)

The sender’s scanner may be dirty. Ask the sender to make a copy to see if the
problem is with the sending machine. Try receiving from another fax machine.

If the problem continues, call your dealer for service.

Received faxes appear as split or
blank pages.

If the received faxes are divided and printed on two pages or if you get an extra
blank page, your paper size setting may not be correct for the paper you are using.
(See Paper Size on page 20.)

Turn on Auto Reduction. (See Printing a reduced incoming fax on page 45.)

Telephone line or connections

Difficulties

Suggestions

Dialling does not work.

Check for a dial tone.

Change Tone/Pulse setting. (See the Quick Guide.)
Check all line cord connections.

Check that the machine is plugged in and switched on.

If an external phone is connected to the machine, send a manual fax by lifting the
handset of the external telephone and dialling the number. Wait to hear the fax
receiving tones before pressing Start.
