What it indicates:

Possible solutions:

Unsupported Compression

The fax modem of the receiving fax
machine does not support data
compression. Fax modems compress
data to speed up transmission, but the
receiving fax modem needs to have
the same compression code.

Lower the transmission speed of
the fax modem, and then resend
the fax.

Enable Auto Fax Conversion.

Unsupported Resolution

The receiving fax machine does not
support the scan resolution of the
document that you are sending.

Lower the fax quality.

Enable Auto Fax Conversion.

Unrecoverable Fax Error

The fax modem encountered critical
errors.

Turn off the printer, turn it back on, and
then resend the fax.

Fax Modem Error

The fax modem of the printer may be
busy, or the fax modem may have
encountered problems during
transmission.

Turn off the printer, turn it back on, and
then resend the fax.

Phone Line is connected to

the incorrect jack on the

back of the machine.

The telephone cable is connected to
the wrong port on the back of the
printer.

Connect the phone cable to the port
on the back of the printer.

line.

The printer is an analog device and
must be connected to an analog line.

Failed to Connect

Phone Line Error

Phone Line Not Connected

The printer cannot detect a dial tone. See the “Fax troubleshooting

checklist.”

Phone Line Busy

Your telephone line or the telephone
line of the receiving fax machine is
busy. This happens especially if the
printer is sharing the line with other
devices (telephone, answering
machine).

Set the printer to redial.

Increase the time between the
redial attempts.

Place a test call to the 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, then wait until
the other device is finished before
sending the fax.

Schedule to resend the fax at a later
time.

Set the printer to scan before
dialing. The scanned document is
saved in the printer memory. The
printer can then retrieve it and
automatically redial the number.
