check whether the machine has faxes in its memory see 

Checking if the machine 

has faxes in its memory

 on page 11-6. If there are faxes you need to save them 

before following the suggestions below. (See 

Forwarding faxes to another fax 

machine

 on page 11-6 or 

Transferring faxes to your PC (MFC-7220 and 

MFC-7225N only)

Turn off the machine's power switch and then turn it on again. If the error message 
continues, leave the machine for several minutes and try it again.

with your machine.

The machine prints first couple of 
pages correctly, then some pages 
have text missing.

Your computer is not recognizing the machine’s input buffer full signal. Please 
make sure you connect the machine’s cable correctly. (See the Quick Setup

 message occurs.

Reduce the printing resolution. (See 

Advanced tab

the CD-ROM.)

Reduce the complexity of your document and try again. Reduce the graphic quality 
or the number of font sizes within your application software.

My headers or footers appear when 
I view my document on the screen 
but do not appear when I print 
them.

Your machine can print 62 lines per page. The top two lines and bottom two lines 
are a restricted area that will not accept print. Adjust the top and bottom margins 
in your document to allow for this.
