Why is my Sharp FO-5800 Fax Machine receiving distorted images?
If you receive a distorted image from your Sharp Fax Machine, and ECM mode (Option Setting 9) is turned off, noise on the telephone line may be the cause. Try sending the document again. You can also make a copy of the document on your fax machine; if the copy is also distorted, your fax machine may need service.
Why is my Sharp Fax Machine not printing anything at the receiving end?
If nothing is printed at the receiving end from your Sharp Fax Machine, make sure that the document for transmission is placed face down in the feeder.
What does 'LINE ERROR' mean on my Sharp FO-5800 Fax Machine?
If the Sharp Fax Machine displays 'LINE ERROR' or prints a transaction report with 'COM. E-' and a number in the NOTE column, try the transaction again. Check the hookup, ensuring the cord from the TEL. LINE jack to the wall jack is no longer than six feet. Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the same telephone line. Check with the other party to ensure their fax machine is functioning properly. Have your telephone line checked for line noise. Try connecting the fax machine to a different telephone line. If the problem persists, your fax machine may need service.
Why are the images I receive on my Sharp Fax Machine distorted?
If received images from your Sharp Fax Machine are distorted, and ECM mode (Option Setting 9) is turned off, noise on the telephone line may be the cause. Have the other party try sending the document again. If the other machine has ECM mode, make sure this feature is turned on in both fax machines. Make a copy or print a report on your fax machine; if the copy or report is also distorted, your fax machine may need service. The drum cartridge may be damaged, so try a new drum cartridge.
