On my activity report, under comment is states TX ECM I know the TX is transaction (I think?) what does ECM stand for

ACTIVITY REPORT

The FAX is factory
set to automatically print an ACTIVITY REPORT after every 20

transactions. If you want to print an ACTIVITY REPORT before it is automatically

printed, follow this procedure:

Transactions in an ACTIVITY REPORT are listed chronologically.

1 Press Function.

2 Press Report.

3 Press OK.

• The FAX prints an ACTIVITY

REPORT.

• If you prefer the FAX not to print an ACTIVITY REPORT after every 20 transactions,

disable the ACTIVITY REPORT setting ( p. 14
5).

• Please note that only one transaction number (TX/RX NO.) is assigned when you send

a document to several fax numbers in one operation.

Transmission Error Correcting Mode was used. When the sending and receiving fax machines support this protocol, they are able to correct errors in transmission that occur. You can turn it off if it is causing you a problem, but it shouldn't be. It makes the determination about ECM capabilities during the initial synchronization. No positive response from the other and and ECM is not employed during the transmission.

Press SYSTEM SETTINGS
select Admin Password and enter the password as "admin" and OK on both screens
Scroll to LIST PRINT (ADMINISTRATOR)
Select IMAGE SENDING ACTIVITY REPORT and select FAX. This will print out the log up to a maximum of 200 events ( Tx, Rx and failed sendings)
If you want a transaction report printed for each individual transmission:
Enter Admin mode as above
Got IMAGE SEND SETTINGS
FAX SETTINGS
TRANSACTION REPORT PRINT SELECT SETTINGS and select Single Sending / Broadcast etc and PRINT OUT ALL REPORT
Press OK then CA to exit

TX = transmit.

This problem is caused by telephone line noises,you can set your Tx speed to a lower transmition by pressing dataregistration and scroll to system settings press set and scroll to TX Start speed,set it to a lower tx speed and test if it help.You can check the tel line type settings under usersettings and make sure it is is on Tone.Another way to to over come this problem is to switch beteen ECM on and off in the TX settings.

This of course depends on why the light is on! If you had a fax come in and it is in memory, you will need to print the fax and clear the memory before the light will go out. The LCD Display should be telling you why that light is on.

1. There is a fax or print job in memory waiting to be printed.--> See steps below
2. There is a paper jam --> Open printer - Remove all paper - Close printer - press OK button
3. You are out of ink or the cartridges are low. - Change Cartridges

Hey renzo737 - Follow these steps to have your machine print a report after you send each fax:

1)Hit the Fax button, then the Menu button.
2)Press the < and > buttons to scroll until you reach
TX Settings. Hit OK.
3)Use the < and > buttons to scroll until you reach TX REPORT.
Then hit ok.
4)First you want ATTACH TX IMAGE and then you want
PRNT FOR EACH TX.(it may also say as TX REPORT)

On your machine under TX report it may just say PRINT ERROR ONLY, which means only print if there's an error, or the PRNT FOR EACH TX. You'll find it easily. You want the print for each tx option. This will print a report and give confirmation that your fax went through after each fax. If you have any problems understandind this or need more help just give a shout.
If this solves your problem PLEASE rate this as fixed. Like I said if you need more help just add a comment and I'll be happy to assist you further. Thanks and have a good one.

fallow this link and download the file : L80_userGuide.pdf

On page 146 you will see how to get a activity report...But i think you can have only the latest 20 transactions...

Display the fax menu and then select Print Report\List and print the Users Data List. Check the setting of the ECM TX setting. If this is ON turn it OFF. This is the Error Correction Mode setting, probability is the fax you are sending to is not ECM compatible. The MP830 is suppose to automatically send in standard mode if receiving machine is not ECM compatible however I am not sure how well this works. Turn the ECM setting off by displaying the Fax Menu and then select Maintenance\Settings, Device Settings, Fax Settings, TX settings, ECM TX.
