   TROUBLESHOOTING AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

Printing Received Faxes (Continued)

Left and Right margins are cut 
off or a single page is printed 
on two pages.

Turn on Auto Reduction. (See 

Printing a reduced incoming fax (Auto 

Reduction)

 on page 4-5.)

Phone Line or Connections

Dialling does not work. 
(No dial tone)

Check the MFC is plugged in.

Check for a dial tone. If possible, call your MFC to hear it answer. If there 
is still no answer, check the telephone line cord connection and make 
sure all telephone connections are secured. If there is no ringing when 
you call your MFC, ask your telephone company to check the line.

Change Tone/Pulse setting. (See 

Setting Tone or Pulse dialling mode 

(Except for the Nordic Countries)

 on page 2-1.)

Receiving Faxes

Cannot receive a fax

Make sure the MFC is in the correct receiving mode for your setup. 
(See 

Basic receiving operations

 on page 4-1.

If you frequently encounter interference on the phone line, try changing 
the menu setting of Compatibility to 

Basic

. (See 

Compatibility

 on page 

11-13.)

If you connect your MFC to PBX, PABX, ADSL or ISDN, set the menu 
setting of Phone Line Type to your phone type. (See 

Setting the Phone 

Line Type

Sending Faxes

Cannot send a fax

Make sure that the Fax 

 key is illuminated. (See 

How to enter Fax 

mode

 on page 3-1.)

Ask the other party to check that receiving machine has paper.

Print the Transmission Verification Report and check for an error. (See 

Printing reports

 on page 7-3.)

Transmission Verification 
Report says â€˜Result:NG’ or 
‘Result:ERROR’.

There is probably temporary noise or static on the line. Try sending the 
fax again. If you send a PC FAX message and get ‘Result:NG’ on the 
Transmission Verification Report, your MFC may be out of memory.

To gain extra memory, you can turn off Fax Storage (see 

Setting Fax 

Storage

 on page 6-2), print fax messages in memory (see

 on page 4-5) or cancel a Delayed 

Fax or Polling Job (see 

Cancelling a scheduled job

 on page 3-9). If the 

problem continues, ask the telephone company to check your phone 
line.

phone line, try to change the menu setting of Compatibility to 

Basic
