Troubleshooting
Use the information in this chapter to troubleshoot general fax issues.
For more advanced fax troubleshooting information, see the electronic
user guide.
Use the following checklist to help you define what is causing any faxing
problems you might be encountering.
Are you using the phone cord supplied with the product?
This product has been tested with the supplied phone cord to meet
RJ11 specifications.
Is the Fax/Phone line connector installed in the correct socket
on the product?
It should be plugged into the product's line socket (the socket on top
with an "L" next to it). You must open the left side panel to access
the socket. See
"Connecting the product to a phone line" on page 5
for details.
Is the Fax/Phone line connector seated into the socket on the
product?
Gently pull on the Fax/Phone line connector to make sure it is well
seated into the socket.
Is the phone wall jack working properly?
Verify that a dial tone exists by attaching a phone to the wall jack.
Can you hear a dial tone and can you make a phone call?
What type of phone line are you using?
Dedicated line: A unique fax/phone number assigned to receive or
send faxes. The phone cord should be connected to the top port
inside the left side panel of the product (the one that is not labeled
with a telephone icon).
Shared phone line: A system where both phone calls and faxes
are received or sent using the same phone number and phone line.
A single standard phone line can only perform one function at a
time. You cannot send a fax while talking on the phone or while
connecting to the Internet using the same phone line.
