Unable to send fax can happen for a lot of reasons. Please do check the following
- Clear any error messages.
- Make sure the cable connections for the following hardware are secure, if applicable:
- Telephone
- Handset
- Answering machine
- Check the Telephone line
- Plug a telephone into the wall jack.
- Listen for a dial tone.
- If you do not hear a dial tone, then plug a different telephone into the wall jack.
- If you still do not hear a dial tone, then plug a telephone into a different wall jack.
- If you hear a dial tone
- Place a test call to the telephone number to which you want to send a fax to make sure that it is working correctly.
- If the telephone line is being used by another device, then wait until the other device is finished before sending a fax.
- If you are using the On Hook Dial feature, then turn up the volume to verify a dial tone.
