Service Call Message

If a malfunction occurs and the machine cannot operate normally, a screen similar to the one shown below is displayed. Follow the instructions that appear on the touch panel display.
NOTE
Even when the machine cannot operate normally, some functions may still be available.
When the message <Check the printer. Call service representative.> is displayed to indicate that the Print function is unavailable, functions that do not use the Print function (such as [Scan and Send]) can be used. (However, faxes cannot be sent from computers.)
When the message <Check the scanner. Call service representative.> is displayed to indicate that the Scan function is unavailable, functions that do not use the Scan function (such as [Access Stored Files]) can be used.
