Troubleshooting 247 REVIEW THIS DIGITAL PHONE SERVICE CHECKLIST The fax modem is an analog device. Certain devices can be connected to the printer so that digital telephone services can be used. • If you are using an ISDN telephone service, connect the printer to an analog telephone port (an R-interface port) on an ISDN terminal adapter. For more information and to request an R-interface port, contact your ISDN provider. • If you are using DSL, connect to a DSL filter or router that will support analog use. For more information, contact your DSL provider. • If you are using a PBX telephone service, make sure you are connecting to an analog connection on the PBX. If none exists, consider installing an analog telephone line for the fax machine. IS THERE A DIAL TONE? • Place a test call to the telephone number to which you want to send a fax to make sure that it is working correctly. • If the telephone line is being used by another device, wait until the other device is finished before sending a fax. • If you are using the On Hook Dial feature, turn up the volume to verify a dial tone. TEMPORARILY DISCONNECT OTHER EQUIPMENT To ensure the printer is working correctly, connect it directly to the telephone line. Disconnect any answering machines, computers with modems, or telephone line splitters. CHECK FOR JAMS Clear any jams, and then make sure that Ready appears. TEMPORARILY DISABLE CALL WAITING Call Waiting can disrupt fax transmissions. Disable this feature before sending or receiving a fax. Call your telephone company to obtain the keypad sequence for temporarily disabling Call Waiting. DO YOU HAVE VOICE MAIL SERVICE? Voice Mail offered through your local telephone company may disrupt fax transmissions. To enable both Voice Mail and the printer to answer calls, you may want to consider adding a second telephone line for the printer. IS THE PRINTER MEMORY FULL? 1 Dial the fax number. 2 Scan the original document one page at a time. Can send but not receive faxes These are possible solutions. Try one or more of the following: IS THERE PAPER IN THE PAPER TRAY(S)? Make sure paper is loaded in the tray(s).
