A blank sheet is ejected.
L
If a blank sheet is ejected after the received document is printed out, the
size of the document sent by the other party is as large as, or larger than,
the recording paper, and the receiving reduction rate is not programmed
correctly. Program the proper rate in feature #36 (page 37).

The other party placed the document in their fax machine facing the wrong
way. Check with the other party.

Some paper has instructions recommending which side to print on. Try
