Ink low One or more of the ink cartridges 
are near the end of their life. If a 
sending machine has a color fax 
to send, your machine’s 
“handshake” will ask that the fax 
be sent as black & white. If the 
sending machine has the ability to 
convert it, the color fax will be 
printed at your machine as a black 
& white fax.
Order a new ink cartridge. You can 
continue printing until the LCD shows 
Cannot Print. (See Ordering 
accessories and supplies on page ii and 
Replacing the ink cartridges on page 51.)
Low Temperature The print head is too cold. Allow the machine to warm up.
Media Error The memory card is either 
corrupted, improperly formatted, 
or there is a problem with the 
memory card.
Put the card firmly into the slot again to 
make sure it is in the correct position. If the 
error remains, check the media drive (slot) 
of the machine by putting in another 
memory card that you know is working.
Media is Full. The memory card you are using 
already contains 999 files.
Your machine can only save to your 
memory card if it contains less than 999 
files. Try deleting unused files to free some 
space and try again.
No Caller ID There is no incoming call history. 
You did not receive calls or you 
have not subscribed to the Caller 
ID service from your telephone 
company.
If you want to use the Caller ID feature call 
your telephone company. (See Caller ID in 
chapter 5 in the Advanced User’s Guide.) 
No File The memory card in the media 
drive does not contain a .JPG file.
Put the correct memory card into the slot 
again.
No Ink Cartridge An ink cartridge is not installed 
properly.
Take out the new ink cartridge and re-
install it slowly until it clicks. (See 
Replacing the ink cartridges on page 51.)
No Paper Fed The machine is out of paper or 
paper is not properly loaded in the 
paper tray.
Do one of the following:
 Refill the paper in the paper tray, and 
then press Black Start or Color Start.
 Remove the paper and load it again 
and then press Black Start or 
Color Start. (See Loading paper and 
other print media on page 9.)
The paper is jammed in the 
machine.
Remove the jammed paper by following 
the steps in Printer jam or paper jam 
on page 61.
The Jam Clear Cover is not 
closed properly.
Check the Jam Clear Cover is closed 
evenly at both ends. (See Printer jam or 
paper jam on page 61.)
No Response/Busy The number you dialed does not 
answer or is busy.
Verify the number and try again.
Not Registered You tried to access a Speed Dial 
number that is not programmed.
Set up the Speed Dial number. (See 
Storing Speed Dial numbers on page 40.)
