Fax error messages on the printer control panel

Error Message:

What it indicates:

Possible solutions:

Remote Fax Error

The receiving fax machine cannot
receive the fax. The error on the
receiving end could be due to several
factors.

Resend the fax. There may have
been a problem with the quality of
the connection.

Decrease the transmission speed
of your fax modem.

Register your user information. In
some countries, you cannot send a
fax without registering your fax
name and fax number. Some fax
machines also block faxes without
sender information.

Fax Mode Unsupported

The receiving fax machine does not
support color fax or the scan
resolution of the document that you
are sending.

Enable Auto Fax Conversion. The
printer automatically converts
color faxes to black and lowers the
scan resolution of the document.

Lower the fax quality.

Reformat the document on
Letter-size paper.
