Cause 2 The registered group is already nested for three levels of subgroups (i.e., a group registered in a group in a group in a group).
Page 185
RECEIVED IN MEMORY Cause The machine received the fax in memory because paper ran out, size of the paper in the machine is not supported, toner ran out, or paper jams occurred. Remedy Load correct paper size in the Paper Drawer, replace the toner cartridge, or clear the paper jams.
Error Codes Errors in reports are recorded as error code numbers because there is not enough space to print a detailed description of the error in the report. When errors are recorded in reports, note the error code number, and check it against the table below to learn more about what caused the error and how to remedy it.
Page 187
#0005 Cause 1 No reply is received from the other party’s fax machine. Remedy Try sending once again from the beginning. Cause 2 The other party is not using a G3 fax machine. Remedy Contact the other party to check. #0009 Cause The paper has run out or the Paper Drawer is not set properly.
Page 188
#0059 Cause Your transmission is canceled because the number you dialed was different from the number registered on the other party’s fax machine. Remedy Check to see that the correct fax/telephone number is registered on the other party’s fax machine. Or, set your <SYSTEM SETTINGS> not to confirm the other party’s number.
Faxing Problems Sending Problems You cannot send a document after dialing. Cause 1 Is the machine overheated? Remedy Press the main power switch to OFF (“O” side) and let it cool for about 5 minutes.

Faxes sent from the machine are spotted or dirty. Cause 1 Is the sending fax machine working properly? Remedy Check the machine by making a copy. For more information, see Chapter 1, “Basic Copying Features,” in the Copying Guide. If the copy is clear, the problem may be in the receiving fax machine. If the copy is spotted or dirty, clean the platen glass , the feeder scan area, or the read area of the platen glass.

The documents you received are of poor quality. Cause 1 Is your toner cartridge running low on toner? Remedy Remove your toner cartridge and gently tilt it from side to side five or six times to redistribute the remaining toner. If this does not solve the problem, replace it with a new toner cartridge.
Page 196
Faxes do not print. Cause 1 Is the toner cartridge installed properly? Remedy Make sure the toner cartridge is installed properly. For more information, see Chapter 7, “Routine Maintenance,” in the Reference Guide. Cause 2 Is the sealing tape removed from the toner cartridge? Remedy Remove the sealing tape from the toner cartridge.
Page 197
Faxed images are blotched or uneven. Cause 1 Is the telephone line in proper condition? Or do you have a good connection? Remedy ECM (Error Correction Mode) for sending/receiving should eliminate such problems. However, if the telephone line is in poor condition, you may have to try again.

You cannot get documents from information services. Cause 1 Is your machine set to the tone dialing type of the telephone line? Remedy Press (Tone) to set the dialing type to <TONE>. Cause 2 Were there any instructions from the other party, such as to set to receive? Remedy Just before receiving, press (Start).
If a Loss of Power Occurs If power is suddenly lost due to an outage or accidental unplugging, a built-in backup battery retains the user data settings and the speed dialing settings.
