When a Job Is Not Performed  
If you cannot execute a function, it may be that the machine is being held up by  
another function.

If you cannot execute a function, terminate any other functions currently active,  
and then try executing the function again. In some cases, you can carry out an-  
other job (copier, facsimile, printer, or scanner) without canceling the current job  
being performed. Performing multiple functions simultaneously like this is  
called “Multi-accessing”.

Troubleshooting When Using the Facsimile Function  
When an Error Report Is Printed  
An Error Report is printed if a document cannot be successfully sent or received.  
Possible causes include a problem with the machine or noise on the telephone  
line. If an error occurs during transmission, resend the original.  
If an error occurs during reception, ask the sender to resend the document.  
Note  
If an error happens frequently, contact your service representative.  
The “Page” column gives the total number of pages. The “Page not sent” or

Turning Off the Main Power / In the Event of Power Failure  
Turning Off the Main Power / In the Event of  
Power Failure  
This section describes the machine status when the power is turned off or if the  
power fails.  
R CAUTION:  
When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the  
plug (not the cable).  
3
Important  
Do not turn off the main power switch while the operation switch indicator is  
lit or blinking. If you do, the memory may be damaged and failure could result.  
Turn off the main power switch before pulling out the plug. If you pull out  
the plug with the switch on, the memory may be damaged and failure could  
result.  
Make sure that 100% is shown on the display before you unplug the machine.  
If a lower value is shown, some data is currently present in memory.  
Right after a power failure, the internal battery needs to be sufficiently re-  
charged to guard against future data loss. Keep the machine plugged in and  
the main power switch on for about 5 days after the power loss.  
Even if the main power switch is turned off, the contents of the machine memory  
(for example, programmed numbers) will not be lost. However, if power is lost  
for about twelve hours because the main power switch is turned off, there is a  
power cut, or the power cord is removed, contents of the Fax memory are lost.  
Lost items will include any fax documents stored in memory using Memory  
Transmission/Reception, Memory Lock, or Substitute Reception.  
If a file was deleted from memory, a Power Failure Report is automatically print-  
ed as soon as the power is restored.  
This report can be used to identify lost files. If a document stored for Memory  
Transmission was lost, resend it. If a document received by Memory Reception  
or Substitute Reception was lost, ask the sender to resend it.  
RDS (Remote Diagnostic System)  
If the machine has a problem, a service representative can perform various  
settings over the telephone line from the service station. If you want to use  
this function, change the User Parameter. See “Parameter Setting”, General  
Settings Guide.

Troubleshooting When Using the Facsimile Function  
When an Error Occurs Using Internet Fax  
This section describes reports that the machine sends if an Internet Fax error occurs.  
Error Mail Notification  
The machine sends the Error Mail Notification to the sender when it is unable to  
successfully receive a particular e-mail message. A “cc” of this notification is also  
sent to the administrator's e-mail address when one is specified.  
3
Note  
You can select to send Error Mail Notification with User Parameters. See “Pa-  
rameter Setting”, General Settings Guide.  
If Error Mail Notification cannot be sent, the Error Report (E-Mail) is printed  
by the machine.  
If an error occurs when e-mail is received via SMTP, the SMTP server sends  
error e-mail to the originator of the document.  
Reference  
“Parameter Setting”, General Settings Guide  
Error Report (E-Mail)  
The Error Report (E-Mail) is printed by the machine when it is unable to send an  
Error Mail Notification.  
Server-Generated Error E-mail  
The transmitting server sends this error e-mail to the originator of e-mail that  
cannot be transmitted successfully (due to reasons such as specifying an incor-  
rect e-mail address).  
Note  
After server-generated error e-mail is printed, the first page of the sent docu-  
ment is printed.

Do not incinerate used toner or toner containers. Toner dust might ig-  
nite when exposed to an open flame. Dispose of used toner containers  
in accordance with local regulations.  
R CAUTION:  
Keep toner (used or unused) and toner containers out of reach of children.  
R CAUTION:  
If toner or used toner is inhaled, gargle with plenty of water and move into a  
fresh air environment. Consult a doctor if necessary.  
R CAUTION:  
If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large

R CAUTION:  
Avoid getting toner on your clothes or skin when removing a paper jam or  
replacing toner. If your skin comes into contact with toner, wash the affected  
area thoroughly with soap and water.  
If toner gets on your clothing, wash with cold water. Hot water will set the  
toner into the fabric and may make removing the stain impossible.  
Important  
Fault may occur if you use toner other than the recommended type.  
When adding toner, do not turn off the operation switch. If you do, settings  
will be lost.  
Add toner only when the machine instructs you to do so.  
When a message “Add toner.” is shown on the display panel, replace the toner.  
Store the toner bottles in a cool, dry place free from direct sunlight.  
Store on a flat surface.  
Do not repeatedly install and remove toner bottles. This will result in toner  
leakage.  
Do not shake the removed toner bottle. Remaining toner might scatter.

This chapter describes how to maintain and operate the machine.  
Where to Put Your Machine  
This section provides precautions for installation, movement and disposal.  
Machine Environment  
Choose your machine's location carefully.  
Environmental conditions greatly affect its performance.  
Optimum environmental conditions  
The following describes precautions when locating the machine.  
R CAUTION:  
Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an elec-  
tric shock might occur.  
Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,  
an injury might occur.  
R CAUTION:  
After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Other-  
wise the machine might move or come down to cause an injury.  
R CAUTION:  
Make sure the room where you are using the machine is well ventilated and  
spacious. Good ventilation is especially important when the machine is used  
heavily.  
• Temperature: 10-32 °C (50-89.6 °F) (humidity to be 54% at 32 °C, 89.6 °F)  
• Humidity: 15-80% (temperature to be 27 °C, 80.6 °F at 80%)  
• Ventilation: 3 times/hr/person or more  
• A strong and level base.

Remarks  
Environments to avoid  
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of strong light (more  
than 1,500 lux).  
Locations directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner or heated air from a heat-  
er. (Sudden temperature changes can cause condensation to form inside the machine.)  
• Locations close to machines generating ammonia, such as a diazo copy machine.  
• Places where the machine will be subject to frequent strong vibration.  
• Dusty areas.  
• Areas with corrosive gases.  
Moving

an injury might occur. After moving the machine, return the four handles to  
their original positions.  
R CAUTION:  
Before moving the machine, be sure to disconnect all external connections,  
especially the power cord from the wall outlet. Damaged power cords are a  
fire and electric shock hazard.  
R CAUTION:  
If you have to move the machine when the optional paper tray unit is at-  
tached, do not push on the main unit's top section. Doing so can cause the  
optional paper tray unit to detach, possibly resulting in injury.
