How can i delete stored faxes from my fax machine so i dont have the out of memory causing problems

The memory full message indicates the fax memory is full. You'll need to look at the Fax storage and either print or delete faxes.

This unit may have a secure fax storage that requires a code to print those faxes. Check under Menu > Fax Feature > Secure Receive > Print (alternatively: Setup > Machine Settings > Fax Setup > Secure Receive > Print). You should see a prompt for the security code.

There can also be stored print or fax jobs on the unsecured storage on the printer, Menu > Job Management > Stored Job. Similarly jobs can be stored on an external drive. Press the Document Box button > Next > System Boxes to see if there are stored jobs that can be deleted.

On some printer/fax machines, I've seen just the list of sent and received jobs (with the date/time stamp and phone number) exceed that storage space. That doesn't seem likely in for the Samsung ProXpress SL-M3870FW.

I hope this helps.

This is not a UK model but the same principles apply. When you receive a fax it is stored in the memory until the whole page is received, then it will start to print. The memory is not split so if you have a lot of faxes to transmit stored in the memory, they will gobble up the memory and reduce the size for receptions to be stored in. Check to see what is stored and delete them to free up memory. If this does not resolve the issue then the machines memory will need to be cleared by the service mode. As I don't know the UK version I cant advise any further.

Press Menu Button Then press [#] [1] [5] [9]

You didn't indicate what model fax printer this was...

Most machines will have a menu button. Hit it, enter fax options, and select memory print or print stored (or similar wording).

Sometimes, just hitting the fax mode button will bring up a prompt asking if you want to print the stored faxes (or delete them).

how do i use my lexmark 6500 fax machine with majic jack?

No. Not from a fax machine. Some faxes have the ability to store sent faxes but this feature caused more problems with memory filling up than it solved. So, the machine usually deleted the job after a short period and it is extremely unlikely that your sent document is anywhere near your fax now. Not a stupid question though.

I think that all faxes store in memory, you should go to the store and ask for it to be deleted!

Try unplugging the power cord for 10 seconds, but you might need a technician to access the SERVICE MODE.

Clear the memory by deleting the fax and voice messages stored in the machine.... mostly voice

if this is not the problem, the memory module needs to be changed


have a nice day

bye

I hope my solution was useful

clear the fax memory from service setup, will resolve the problem happy faxing omnipresent.
