When the Machine Does Not Operate As wanted

4

The following table explains the meaning of the various beep patterns that the
machine produces to alert users about left originals and other machine condi-
tions.

❒ Users cannot mute the machine's beep alerts. When the machine beeps to alert

users of a paper jam or toner request, if the machine's covers are opened and
closed repeatedly within a short space of time, the beep alert might continue,
even after normal status has resumed.

For details about enabling or disabling beep alerts, see “The System Settings”,
General Settings Guide.
