9.1 ERROR INDICATION
To help the user or the service personnel promptly locate the cause of a problem (if any), the
facsimile equipment incorporates the self-diagnostic functions which display error messages for
equipment errors and communications errors.
For the communications errors, the equipment also prints out the transmission verification report
and the communications list.
9.1.1 Equipment Errors
If an equipment error occurs, the facsimile equipment emits an audible alarm (continuous beeping)
for approximately 4 seconds and shows the error message on the LCD. For the error messages, see
[ 1 ] below.
To display detailed error information, use maintenance-mode function code 82 described in
Chapter 8, Section 8.4.16 (that is, make the equipment enter the maintenance mode and then press
the [8] and [2] keys). Following the MACHINE ERROR, one of the error codes listed in [ 2 ] will
appear on the LCD.
9.1.1.1 Error messages appearing on the LCD
ERROR MESSAGE CAUSE ACTION
Cover Open The front or the back cover is not
closed completely.
Close the front or the back cover of the
machine.
Drum Near End The drum unit is near the end of
its life.
Use the drum unit until you have a
print quality problem; then replace the
drum unit with a new one.
Comm. Error Poor phone line quality caused a
communication error.
Send the fax again or connect the
machine to another telephone line.
If the problem continues, call the
telephone company and ask them to
check your phone line.
Connection Fail You tried to poll a fax machine
that is not in Polled Waiting mode.
Check the other fax machine’s polling
setup.
Cooling Down
Wait For a While
The temperature of the drum unit
or toner cartridge is too hot. The
machine will pause its current
print job and go into cooling down
mode. During the cooling down
mode, you will hear the cooling
fan running while the LCD shows
“Cooling Down”, and “Wait For a
While”.
Make sure that you can hear the fan in
the machine spinning and the exhaust
outlet isn’t blocked by something.
If the fan is spinning, remove any
obstacles that surround the exhaust
outlet, and then leave the machine
turned on but do not use it for several
minutes.
If the fan is not spinning follow the
suggestions below.
Turn off the machine’s power switch
and then turn it on again. If the error
message continues leave the machine
for several minutes and then try it
again. (The machine can be turned off
for up to 4 days without losing faxes
stored in the memory.)
