Causes
Solutions
When print volume limits are
specified, users cannot print
beyond their print volume
limit. Print jobs selected by
users who have reached their
print volume limits will be
canceled.
• For details about specifying print
volume limits, contact your
administrator.
Large print runs will cause the
machine's interior to heat up,
triggering the cooling fan.
The fan will automatically
begin running when the print
run reaches approximately
3,000 sheets of A4 , or
1,000 sheets of A3 .
The fan will run for about 30 minutes. The
fan will emit noise, but this is normal and
the machine will be operable while the
fan is running.
• To view the status of a print job, see
[Print Job History]. In Web Image
Monitor, [Print Job History] is under
[Document Server] in [Job].
• If you cannot make copies as you want because of paper type, paper size, or paper capacity
problems, use the recommended paper. See "Recommended Paper Sizes and Types", About This
Machine
.
• Using curled paper often causes misfeeds, soiled paper edges, or slipped positions while performing
staple or stack printing. When using curled paper, take the stiffness out of the paper with your hands
to straighten out the curl, or load the paper up side down. Also, lay paper on a flat surface to prevent
paper from curling, and do not lean it against the wall.

When a Job Is Not Performed
If you are not able to carry out your job, it may be that the machine is being used by another function.
Wait until the current job is completed before trying again. In certain cases, you can carry out another job
using a different function while the current job is being performed. Performing multiple functions
simultaneously like this is called "Multi-accessing".

If an Error Report Is Printed
An Error Report is printed if a document cannot be successfully sent or received.
Possible causes include a problem with the machine or noise on the telephone line. If an error occurs during
transmission, resend the original. If an error occurs during reception, ask the sender to resend the document.
• If an error happens frequently, contact your service representative.

• The "Page" column gives the total number of pages. The "Page not sent" or "Page not received" column

Turning Off the Main Power / In the Event of Power Failure
Turning Off the Main Power / In the Event of
Power Failure
The following notes concern power failure and turning off the machine.
• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord. Pulling
the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric
shock.
3
• Do not turn off the main power switch while the power indicator is lit or blinking. If you do, the hard
disk and memory may be damaged and failure could result.
• Turn off the main power switch before pulling out the plug. If you pull out the plug with the switch on,
the hard disk and memory may be damaged and failure could result.
• Make sure 100% is shown on the display before you unplug the machine. If a lower value is shown,
some data is currently present in memory.
• Right after a power failure, the internal battery needs to be sufficiently recharged to guard against
future data loss. Keep the machine plugged in and the main power switch on for about 24 hours after
the power loss.
Even if the main power switch is turned off, the contents of the machine memory (for example, programmed
numbers) will not be lost. However, if power is lost for about one hour because the main power switch is
turned off, there is a power cut, or the power cable is removed, contents of the Fax memory are lost. Lost
items will include any fax documents stored in memory using Memory Transmission/Reception, or Memory
Lock.
If a file was deleted from memory, a Power Failure Report is automatically printed as soon as the power
is restored.
This report can be used to identify lost files. If a document stored for Memory Transmission was lost, resend
it. If a document received by Memory Reception or Substitute Reception was lost, ask the sender to resend
it.

When an Error Occurs Using Internet Fax
This section describes reports that the machine sends if an Internet Fax error occurs.
Error Mail Notification
3
The machine sends the Error Mail Notification to the sender when it is unable to successfully receive a
particular e-mail message. A "cc" of this notification is also sent to the administrator's e-mail address when
one is specified.
• If an incoming Internet Fax from another party bypasses the SMTP server, even if reception is not
successful, an Error Mail Notification is not sent to the sender.
• You can select to send Error Mail Notification by configuring the appropriate User Parameter. For
details about how to do this, see "Parameter Settings", Facsimile Reference .
• If Error Mail Notification cannot be sent, the Error Report (E-mail) is printed by the machine.
• If an error occurs when an e-mail is received via SMTP, the SMTP server sends an error e-mail to the
originator of the document.
Error Report (E-mail)
The Error Report (E-mail) is printed by the machine when it is unable to send an Error Mail Notification.
Server-Generated Error E-mail
The transmitting server sends this error e-mail to the originator of e-mail that cannot be transmitted
successfully (due to reasons such as specifying an incorrect e-mail address).
• If an Internet Fax transmission bypasses the SMTP server, even if transmission is not successful, an
error e-mail is not sent from the server.
• After a server-generated error e-mail is printed, the first page of the sent document is printed.

6. Clearing Misfeeds
This chapter describes what to do when paper or originals misfeed (become jammed inside the machine).
Removing Jammed Paper
This section describes how to locate and remove jammed paper.
• The inside of the machine could be very hot. Do not touch the parts with a label indicating the
"hot surface." Otherwise, an injury might occur.
• Some of this machine's internal components get very hot. For this reason, take care when removing
misfed paper. Not doing so could result in burns.
• Keep your hands clear of the booklet finisher tray when removing misfed paper, pulling out or
pushing in the finisher's staple unit. You can trap and injure your fingers if you do not.
6
• When clearing misfeeds, do not turn off the operation switch. If you do, your copy settings will be
lost.
• To prevent misfeeds, do not leave any torn scraps of paper inside the machine.
• Contact your service representative if misfeeds occur frequently.
• If the error message remains displayed even after you remove misfed paper, open and close the front
cover.
• Inside the finisher, or inside the front cover, there is a sticker explaining how to remove misfed paper.
• If a detailed removal instruction appears on the right of the screen, follow it.
• You can also use the procedure indicated in [System Status] to remove jammed paper.
Locating Jammed Paper
If a misfeed happens, remove the misfed paper or original following the procedures stated on the sticker
inside the finisher or front cover.
A misfeed has occurred in the place corresponding to the letter displayed on the control panel.

1. Press the key of the section from where you want to remove the jammed paper.
2. After each step is complete, press [Next]. To go back to the previous step, press [Previous].
3. When all jammed paper is removed, restore the machine to the original state.
• More than one misfeed may be indicated. When this happens, check all the areas indicated.
• If there is no misfed paper in the first area you check, see the other areas that are indicated.

Removing Jammed Staples
This section describes how to remove jammed staples.
• Keep your hands clear of the booklet finisher tray when removing misfed paper, pulling out or
pushing in the finisher's staple unit. You can trap and injure your fingers if you do not.
• Curled paper may cause staples to jam. To avoid this, turn paper over in the tray.
• When the finisher is installed, after removing jammed staples, staples will not be ejected the first few
times you try to use the stapler.
• Remove the jammed staples according to the finisher type. Check the type if you are unsure. For details
