Cannot Send or Receive Faxes

If you cannot send or receive faxes, try these solutions:

• Use

Check Fax Connection

on the control panel (

Settings

>

Fax Settings

>

Check Fax

Connection

) to run the automatic fax connection check. Try the solutions suggested in the report.

• If you are faxing from a computer, use the Epson FAX Utility to send your fax.

• Make sure the recipient's fax machine is turned on and working.

• Make sure the recipient's fax number is correct and entered correctly.

• Make sure paper is loaded correctly in your product.

• Make sure you have set up your header information and have not blocked your caller ID. Otherwise,

your faxes might be rejected by the recipient's fax machine.

• Set the user name and password in the printer driver. When sending a fax from a computer when the

security function that restrict users from using the printer's fax function is set, user authentication is
performed with the user name and password set in the printer driver.

• Make sure Receive Mode is set to

Auto

so you can receive faxes automatically.

• Check that the cable connecting your telephone wall jack to your product's

LINE

port is secure.

• Print a fax connection report using your product control panel or fax software to help diagnose the

problem.

• Verify that the telephone wall jack works by connecting a phone to it and testing it.

• If there is no dial tone and you connected the product to a PBX (Private Branch Exchange) phone line

or Terminal Adapter, change the

Line Type

setting to

PBX

. If you still cannot send a fax, turn off the

product's dial tone detection setting. (Turning off the dial tone setting may cause the product to drop
the first digit of a fax number.)

• Check the

Line Type

setting and set it to

PBX

. If your phone system requires an external access code

to reach an outside line, register the code to the product and add a # (hash) to the beginning of the
phone number when dialing.
