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.

❖ 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 Settings”, General Settings Guide.

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.

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.

Problem Cause Solution

The scanned image is dirty.

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, scanning glass, exposure glass cover, 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.121 “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.

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.
