Issue
Cause and Solution
- You cannot send faxes if the power is turned off. Press the ON button to turn the power on.
- If you disconnected the power cord without turning off the power (the Power lamp is lit), reconnecting it turns on the power automatically.

- If the power was turned off due to power failure, etc., the power is automatically turned on when the power failure is resolved.
