Copying
The unit does not make a copy.
 You cannot make a copy during
programming. Make the copy after
programming or stop programming.
A black line, a white line or a dirty pattern
appears on the copied document.
 The white plate, scanner glass or lower
glass are dirty. Clean them (p. 77–79).
The printing quality is poor.
 Some paper has instructions
recommending which side to print on. Try
turning the paper over. 
 You may have used paper with a cotton
and/or fiber content that is over 20%, such
as letterhead or resume paper. 
 The remaining toner is low. Replace the
toner cartridge (p. 73).
 We recommend you replace the drum unit
every third time you replace the toner
cartridge 
(p. 73). To check the drum life
and quality, please print the printer test list
(p. 80).
 The toner save mode of feature #79 is on
(p. 65).
 When you make a copy from
transparencies, be sure to use the scanner
glass. Place a blank sheet of paper on top
of the transparency, and leave the
document cover open during copying 
(p. 48).
Using an answering
machine
I cannot receive documents automatically.
 Your greeting message on the answering
machine is too long. Shorten the message
(to less than 10 seconds).
 The answering machine rings too many
times. Set to 1 or 2 rings.
I cannot receive voice messages.
 Check if the answering machine is turned
on and connected to the fax machine
properly (p. 44).
 Set the number of rings on the answering
machine to 1 or 2.
(continued)I cannot retrieve recorded voice messages
on the answering machine from a remote
location.
 You did not program your remote access
code into your fax machine correctly.
Program the same code that is
programmed on the answering machine
on the fax machine with feature #12 
(p. 62).
I pressed the remote access code to
access the answering machine remotely,
but the line was disconnected.
 The code may include “#” which is used
for certain features provided by telephone
companies. Change the code on the
answering machine to another code which
does not include “#”. Also change the code
of the fax machine with feature #12 (p.
62).
Callers complain that they cannot send a
document.
 Your answering machine has run out of
recording tape. Rewind the tape to record
messages.
 You set the answering machine to only
give a greeting message.
