Solution
• Make sure the fax is plugged in and the imaging
film and paper have been loaded. (Programming is
not possible if the imaging film and printing paper
have not been loaded.) See Loading the Imaging
Film and Loading Printing Paper in Chapter 1.
• Make sure the power cord is properly plugged into
a power outlet.
• Connect another electrical appliance to the outlet to
see if it has power.
• If a beep sound is not made when you press the
keys, unplug the power cord and then plug it in
again several seconds later.
• Check the size and weight of the document (see
Transmittable Documents on page 46).
• The fax may interrupt during a voice call if the
reception mode is set to A.M. To prevent
interruption on a tone dial extension phone, press
any three keys on the extension phone after
answering. (Note: Do not enter the code to activate
fax reception.)
• Make sure you have not run out of paper.
• Make sure the transmitting machine is set to
answer automatically.
• If the transmitting machine has polling security,
make sure that your fax number has been entered
both in your machine and in the transmitting
machine.
