report.

settings listed in the report to verify the settings are correct. A blank or
incorrect fax setting can cause problems faxing.

problems found.

If necessary, resolve any problems found and rerun the test.

Cause: The product was not set up properly for faxing.
If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

Solution 2: Check the fax number

Solution: Check to see that the fax number you entered is correct and in the proper
format. For example, you might need to dial a "9" prefix, depending on your phone
system.
If your phone line has a PBX system, make sure you are dialing the number for an
outside line before dialing the fax number.
