Line error (AM-400 only)
Problem
Solution
LINE ERROR appears in 
the display.
A line error occurs when your machine cannot 
communicate correctly with the other fax machine. 
The error is usually due to a problem on the phone 
line.
Try the transaction again. If the error persists, check 
the following:
• Check the connection. The cord from the TEL. 
LINE socket to the wall socket should be no longer 
than two metres.
• Make sure there are no modem devices sharing the 
same telephone line.
• Check with the other party to make sure their fax 
machine is functioning properly.
• Have your telephone line checked for line noise.
• Try connecting the machine to a different telephone 
line.
• If the problem still occurs, your machine may need 
service.
