Make sure that the dial prefix entered in the printer is correct for your network. To check the dial prefix setting: 1 From the home screen, navigate to Dial Prefix: > Fax Setup > Dialing and Sending > Dial Prefix 2 Check the prefix. If the prefix is not correct, enter the correct prefix, and then touch Accept. Cannot receive faxes If the "Fax troubleshooting checklist" does not solve the problem, then try one or more of the following: MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE CONFIGURED THE CORRECT SETTINGS FOR YOUR SETUP The fax settings depend on whether the printer is connected to its own fax line or shares the line with other devices. If the printer is sharing the line with other devices, then make sure that the following are set: • Auto Answer is On. • The printer picks up on a greater number of rings than the other devices. • The printer picks up on the correct distinctive ring, if you subscribe to a distinctive ring service. MAKE SURE THAT THE PRINTER IS CONNECTED TO AN ANALOG PORT The printer is an analog device. If you are using a PBX system, then make sure that the printer is connected to an analog port on the PBX. You may need a digital line converter that converts digital signals into analog signals. MAKE SURE THAT THE PRINTER MEMORY IS NOT FULL The printer saves an incoming fax to the printer memory before it prints the fax. If the printer runs out of ink or runs out of paper while receiving the fax, then the printer saves the fax so you can print it later. However, if the printer memory is full, then the printer may not be able to receive more incoming faxes. An error message appears on the display when the printer memory is full. Resolve the error to free up space in the printer memory. MAKE SURE THAT FAX FORWARDING IS DISABLED You may have turned on Fax Forwarding. Disable this option so that the printer can receive the fax. 1 From the home screen, navigate to Fax Forward: > Fax Setup > Ringing and Answering > Fax Forward 2 Touch OFF, and then touch Accept. INCREASE THE RINGER VOLUME If you set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off), then increase the ringer volume. MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE THE CORRECT MANUAL ANSWER CODE If you set the printer to receive faxes manually (Auto Answer Off), then you need to press the correct code when a fax comes in so that the printer can receive it.
