Error Code Faxes are sending slowly

Fax transmission times have increased and the product is not completing faxes quickly.

? What Causes This

Low ink levels affecting print quality, line noise or high error rate in modem circuitry.

How to Fix It

  1. Check toner/ink status and replace cartridges if necessary before each fax session.
  2. Ensure telephone connection (RJ-11 cord) is undamaged and properly seated.
  3. Test fax transmission over a direct landline rather than through an answering machine or extension.
  4. Run modem troubleshooting steps outlined in model-specific diagnostics.
