How do I retrieve faxes from memory with my Canon MP530?

Press FAX, then MENU. Press left or right unitl MEMORY REFERENCE appears. Press OK 2 times. The faxes will print.

It will run as long as the ink is just low, when empty it will not let you proceed. It will take an incoming fax and hold it in memory until the inks are replaced. When empty the error will stop you from sending a fax.

page 56 of the quick start guide details retrieving faxes stored in memory.

hii..
how long you have been using this fax.

I am having a similar problem. You do have to connect your phone to the jack in the machine in the "Phone" jack slot, as well as have another line out to the jack in the wall in the "L" slot. That is all I know. I am having problems with my voicemail. Either I can received voicemail, and no faxes, or faxes, and no voicemail (fax picks up at specified number of rings). It is EXTREMELY frustrating. The machine is *supposed* to be able to discern between phone calls and faxes..and that is not happening.

Have you come across a solution? Aghhhhh!

Check your ink cartridges and fill any that may be low. I got that error because one of the cartridges (magenta) needed to be refilled. The printer was storing failure reports in its memory until they could be printed out, leaving no room to fax new documents. As soon as the ink cartridge was replaced, the reports printed and freed up the memory to send out faxes.

I found this in a forum and I suspect it will work, remember that you'll need to clear the internal memory chip by unplugging the printer:

I got the dreaded "memory full" problem with my mp530 this morning. Couldn't FAX because the mp530 thought its memory was full even though it showed no documents in memory. The Canon site lists this symptom with a solution of 'turn off the unit, wait 10 seconds, then turn it back on'. Well that didn't work, so after multiple tries I noticed a post on this board (not really related) that suggested turning off the unit, unplugging it and waiting 10 minutes -- and that did the trick.

All in one fax MP530

1- Press Fax,then Menu.

2- Press the Right Arrow Key to show 'Memory Reference' on the mini screen.Then press OK.

3 - Again use the arrow keys to show 'Print Document' on mini screen and press OK to print.

4- Once this has printed repeat the first 2 steps and on the 3rd step go to 'Delete Document' to allow you to print the next saved fax.

5- Repeat this till you have no more Fax's saved,then the light should go out in the top left corner.
