Note
❒ If you cannot make copies as you want because of paper type, paper size, or
paper capacity problems, use recommended paper. See “Copy Paper”, About
This Machine.
❒ Using curled paper often causes misfeeds, soiled paper edges, or slipped po-
sitions while performing staple or stack printing. When using curled paper,
take the stiffness out of the paper with your hands to straighten out the curl,
or load the paper up side down. Also, to prevent paper from curling, lay paper on a flat surface, and do not lean it against the wall.

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 certain cases, you can carry out another job (copier, document server, printer, scanner) without canceling the current job being performed. Performing multiple functions simultaneously like
this is called “Multi-accessing”.

Troubleshooting When Using the Facsimile Function
If 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
“Page not received” column gives the number of pages not sent or received
successfully.

Turning Off the Main Power / In the Event of
Power Failure
This section explains the machine status when the power is turned off or if the
power fails.
CAUTION:
•When you disconnect the power plug from the wall outlet, always pull the
plug (not the cable).
Important
❒ Do not turn off the main power switch while the power indicator is lit or
blinking. If you do, the hard disk and 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 hard disk and 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 24 hours 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 one hour because the main power switch is turned off, there is a power
cut, or the power cable is removed, contents of the Fax memory are lost. Lost
items will include any fax documents stored in memory using Memory Transmission/Reception, Auto Document, Confidential Reception, Memory Lock, or
Substitute Reception.
If a file was deleted from memory, a Power Failure Report is automatically printed as soon as the power is restored.
This report can be used to identify lost files. If a memory 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.

Troubleshooting When Using the Facsimile Function
When an Error Occurs Using Internet Fax
This section explains 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.

Note
❒ You can select to send Error Mail Notification with User Parameters. See “Pa-
rameter Settings”, 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 an e-mail is received via SMTP, the SMTP server
sends an error e-mail to the originator of the document.
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 incorrect e-mail address).
Note
❒ After a server-generated error e-mail is printed, the first page of the sent doc-
ument is printed.

Processing time depends on data volume. High volume
data, such as graphics-heavy documents,
take longer to process.
If the data-in lamp is blinking, data has been
received by the printer. Wait for a moment.
Making the following setting on the printer
driver may reduce the computer's workload.
For how to open the printing preferences dialog box, see “Setting Up the Printer Driver”,
Printer Reference.

5. Troubleshooting When
Using the Scanner Function
This chapter explains likely causes of and possible solutions for scanner function
problems.
When Scanning is Not Done as Expected
This section explains causes and remedies when scan results are not as expected.
ProblemCauseSolution
The scanned image is
dirty.
The image is distorted
or out of position.
The image is distorted
or out of position.
The scanned image is
upside down.
No image results from
scanning.
Images are scanned in
rotated.
The exposure glass or auto document feeder (ADF) is dirty.
The original was moved during
scanning.
The original was not pressed flat
against the exposure glass.
The original was placed upside
down.
The original was placed with the
front and back reversed.
If you set the original with its upper edge backward and save full
color/grey scale images as a TIFF
or JPEG file, they are scanned in
rotated.
Clean these parts. See p.122
“Maintaining Your Machine”.
Do not move the original during
scanning.
Make sure that the original is
pressed flat against the exposure
glass.
Place the original in the correct
orientation. See “Placing Originals”, Copy/Document Server
Reference.
When the original is placed directly on the exposure glass, the
side to be scanned must face
down. When the original is fed
via the ADF, the side to be
scanned must face up. See “Placing Originals”, Copy/Document
Server Reference.
When placing a stack of originals
in the ADF, place their upper
edges first.
See “Various Scan Settings”,
Scanner Reference.
The scanned image
contains white spaces.
• If you scan originals using
functions other than the network TWAIN scanner function, certain paper size and
resolution settings may produce scanned images that are
larger than the specified size
because of margins being
added to the sides.
• If the File Format Converter
(optional ) is installed, the
margins may become wider.
Scanning at a higher resolution
may reduce the margins.

Adding Toner
This section explains adding and storing toner.
WARNING:
•Do not incinerate used toner or toner containers. Toner dust might ignite when exposed to an open flame. Dispose of used toner containers
in accordance with local regulations.
CAUTION:
•Keep toner (used or unused) and toner containers out of reach of children.
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.
CAUTION:
•If toner or used toner gets into your eyes, flush immediately with large
amounts of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
CAUTION:
•If toner or used toner is swallowed, dilute by drinking a large amount of water. Consult a doctor if necessary.
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.
CAUTION:
•Our products are engineered to meet high standards of quality and functionality, and we recommend that you use only the expendable supplies available at an authorized dealer.
CAUTION:
•Do not open toner cartridges forcefully. Toner can spill, dirtying your clothes
or hands, and possibly resulting in accidental ingestion.
