Cannot Receive Faxes
❏
If you have subscribed to a call forwarding service, the printer may not be able to receive faxes. Contact the
service provider.
❏
If you have not connected a telephone to the printer, set the
Receive Mode
setting to
Auto
on the control panel.
❏
Under the following conditions, the printer runs out of memory and cannot receive faxes. See the
troubleshooting for information on handling a memory full error.
❏
The number of received documents has reached the maximum of 100 documents.
❏
The printer's memory is full (100%).
❏
Check if the sender's fax number has been registered to the
Rejection Number List
. Faxes sent from numbers
that have been added to this list are blocked when
Rejection Number List

Memory Full Error Occurs
❏
If the printer has been set to save received faxes on a computer, turn on the computer that is set to save the
faxes. Once the faxes are saved in the computer, they are deleted from the printer's memory.
❏
Even though the memory is full, you can send a monochrome fax by using the
Direct Send
feature. Or divide
your originals into two or more to send them in several batches.
❏
If the printer cannot print a received fax due to a printer error, such as a paper jam, the memory full error may
occur. Solve the printer problem, and then contact the sender and ask them to send the fax again.
Sent Fax Quality Is Poor
