Cannot Send Faxes
❏ If the user restriction feature has been enabled, a user name and password are required to operate the printer.
Contact your administrator if you do not know the password.
❏ If the user restriction feature has been enabled, and you send a fax from a computer, user authentication is
performed using the user name and password set in the printer driver. When you cannot send a fax due to an
authentication error, contact your administrator.
❏ Set up the header information for outgoing faxes on the control panel. Some fax machines automatically reject
incoming faxes that do not include header information.
❏ If you have blocked your caller ID, unblock it. Some phones or fax machines automatically reject anonymous
calls.
❏ Ask the recipient if the fax number is correct and the recipient's fax machine is ready to receive a fax.
❏ Check if you accidentally sent a fax using the subaddress feature. If you select a recipient with a subaddress from
the contact list, the fax may be sent using the subaddress feature.
❏ When sending faxes using the subaddress feature, ask the recipient if their fax machine is capable of receiving
faxes using the subaddress feature.
❏ When sending faxes using the subaddress feature, check that the subaddress and password are correct. Check
with the recipient that the subaddress and password match.
