    Unplug power cord, after turning machine off. Plug back in, try again. I know this is elementary, but the best of us have forgotten to do the basics form time to time

        Do you think its a bad line?
        Or that fax configuration is wrong.
        Whatever

          I agree this is most likely a bad line, plug in a handset & make a call, listen for crackles etc

            Thank you for helping. Dumb question, but how do we test for a bad line?
            I have a hard time overcoming a customer that says "why is it working on my Ricoh fax?"

              You can connect a handset and listen for crackling sounds and any abnormality.

              Is the machine connected to PSTN or PABX?
              Whatever

                Sorry missed you post there

                Ok go to the job log and get the code that pops up there under detail. that could help, does the machine give a failure message or a NG delivery report.

                Did you check the marketing area?
                Did you reinitialize the fax?

                What have you tried so far?
                Whatever

                  Hi there.
                  Checked the line....clear
                  Set for pb.
                  Tried: ecm off,slowed to9600,reinitialize fax,next step is new fax board.
                  It s quite odd, sometimes it prints 1 page of a multipage, other times nothing. Yesterday I sent 3 pages OK, then nothing...no real pattern. When you mention marketing area, I recall like a353 set to Japanese. And it caused odd fax issues. Will check this.
                  Thanks again.

                    For what it is worth, it appears that there are a lot of people with Bizhub experience here:

                      As mentioned, take it out of JP mode
                      (happens all the time)
                      Color is not 4 times harder... it's 65,000 times harder. They call it "TECH MODE" for a reason. I have manual's and firmware for ya, course... you are going to have to earn it.
