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

 key is illuminated. 

(See 

Entering Fax mode

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

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

Reports

on page 62.)

Transmission Verification Report 
says ‘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 machine may be out of memory. If the problem continues, 
ask the telephone company to check your phone line.

Handling Incoming Calls

Difficulty

Suggestions

The machine ‘Hears’ a voice as a 
CNG Tone.

If Easy Receive is set to on, your machine is more sensitive to sounds. It may 
mistakenly interpret certain voices or music on the line as a fax machine calling 
and respond with fax receiving tones. Deactivate the machine by pressing 

Stop/Exit

. Try avoiding this problem by turning Easy Receive to off. (See 

Easy 

Receive

on page 39.)
