The fax element of the Printer contains a memory feature for storing faxes in the event of a printing problem. This feature is useful for protecting yourself against missing faxes if your printer runs out of paper. In order to retrieve missed faxes, the feature must be switched on when the faxes arrive. You can reprint faxes stored in the device's memory from the main control panel. You should allow approximately 5 minutes for this task, or longer if many faxes are stored in the memory.
Instructions:
Load paper in the input tray.

Press the "Setup" button on the front of the printer.

Select "Tools," then "Reprint Faxes From Memory."

Press "Cancel" to stop printing. Faxes are printed in reverse order; the most recent fax is the last to print.

CAN U PLEASE CONTACT ANY SERVICE CENTRE NEARBY U,

Horizontal or vertical? Or do you mean lines of text?
Did you try to copy a document? If the copy is fine, then the fault is on the sending side, or there are severe transmission errors.
If the copy exhibits the same faults as the received faxes, then something is wrong with the printing part of your fax, and solving the problem will depend on the printing technology used (inkjet - clogged heads, need cleaning, or empty ink, needs replacing etc.)

First, does the machine print normally from a computer or when making copies?
If so, then most probably you have enabled a private receive fax mode. In this mode, faxes are not printed immediately upon receipt (to prevent unauthorized people to read them), but are stored in memory, waiting for an authorized person to come and print them, providing a PIN (password).
To print the faxes stored in memory, do the following:
- press FaxMenu
- using arrow buttons select "receive"
- press OK
- using arrow buttons select "print faxes"
- press OK
- using the alphanumeric keypad enter the PIN/password and press OK
THe previously received faxes should print..
SOmeone must have turned this option on, so ask that person what he/she entered as the PIN.

We moved from 561 to 772 area code. Now we can not receive faxes. What do I need to do?
Did not have an issue receiving faxes at the old area code: 561
