F6-20

[repeatcopiers]

I have a Sharp ARBC260 with error F6-20....intravia says "Fax write protect release". I'm new to this model.....can someone help. I've already tried to just clear the code, but no change. Thanks.

Hope this helps.

Based on that little paragraph, I would suspect that someone flashed the firmware recently and did not return the write protect switch to the On position. =^..^=

Thank you, I found the jumper on the ICU board, moved to the left and it works fine now.
