Muratec Dynamo MFX-2530, Operating Instructions Manual

Errors
When sending faxes, your machine occasionally runs into communication errors.
These can be caused by anything from lightning to telephone line interference.
(These same factors cause static, or line noise, you sometimes hear on phone calls.)
They also can be caused by problems with the fax machine at the other end of the
line.
Often, simply trying your call again is all that’s necessary. However, if the problem
persists regularly, call your local telephone company for help. If that doesn’t help and
the problem persists regularly, call your authorized Muratec dealer.
Error reports
When an error occurs, your fax machine prints an error report. Each fax error report
lists an error message which includes:
• A possible solution to the problem
• The sending location (if the remote fax stores a Location
ID
of its own)
• The result — which is a special error code.
• A sample of the document’s first page.
Kinds of error codes
The error code listed in the “Result” column of the error report indicates the specific
problem encountered:
• “
D
” codes — Occur while dialing
• “
R
” codes — Occur during reception
• “
T
” codes — Occur during transmission
