SOURCE: fax interrupts phone call

1. Make sure your [RINGS TO ANSWER] settings are more than the same settings for your answering machine.
2. If someone tries to make a copy while the phone line is in use, they need to press number 1, as if telling the unit that they want one copy. If not, the unit will think you are trying to receive a fax and will interrupt the communication.

Be blessed.

Replace your USB cable with a good quality, thick USB cable that does not exceed 10ft. Let me know if the problem persists.

Hi again,

For some reason I could no longer view your responses.

Nonetheless, I posted in the Live Session a method of verifying the fax sending capability even in the absence of a receiving fax machine.

Internal Error 923 with Sending or Receiving Fax

I've just got my CLX-3160FN and found the same problems. Could go around the sending error, but can't receive faxes yet, always error 923.
Sending: make sure you press the "On Hook Dial" button before entering the recipient's number. Stupid, very stupid, but it's how it works.
