MAKE SURE THAT THE PRINTER MEMORY IS NOT FULL
The printer saves an incoming fax to the printer memory before it prints the fax. If the printer runs out of ink or
runs out of paper while receiving the fax, then the printer saves the fax so you can print it later. However, if the
printer memory is full, then the printer may not be able to receive more incoming faxes. An error message appears
on the display when the printer memory is full. Resolve the error to free up space in the printer memory.
