Ring mode. You cannot change
the Receive Mode from Manual to
another mode.
Set Distinctive Ring to off. (See Turning off
Distinctive Ring on page 55.)
High Temperature The print head is too warm. Allow the machine to cool down.
Ink Empty One or more of the ink cartridges
is empty. The machine will stop all

available, black and white faxes
will be stored in the memory. If a
sending machine has a color fax,
the machine's
‘handshake’ will
ask that the fax be sent as black
and white. If the sending machine
has the ability to convert it, the
color fax will be stored in the
memory as a black and white fax.
Replace the ink cartridges. (See Replacing
the ink cartridges on page 143.)
