							Troubleshooting Problems Sending Faxes (Fax Driver)
Check 1 Is the power turned on?
You cannot send faxes if the power is turned off. Press the  ON button to turn the power on.
If you disconnected the power cord without turning off the power (one of the buttons on the operation panel is lit),
reconnecting it turns on the power.
If you disconnected the power cord after pressing the  ON button to turn off the power (no buttons on the
operation panel are lit), reconnect it, then press the  ON button to turn on the power.
If the power was turned off due to power failure, etc., the power is automatically turned on when the power failure is resolved.
Important
•
Confirm that all lamps on the operation panel are off before unplugging the power cord, then unplug the
power cord.
If a power failure occurs or you unplug the power cord, all faxes stored in the machine's memory are
deleted.
Note
•
If the faxes stored in the machine's memory are deleted by a power failure or unplugging the power cord,
the list of the faxes deleted from the machine's memory will be printed after turning the machine on.
