MX452 will not autoprint faxes

[Jorabi]

Autoprint is set to Yes, confirmed.  Ink OK, paper OK,  Faxes go straight to memory.  Fax Memory light comes on, have to manually print it.  Machine is in a busy deli, big problem because orders are faxed in.

Hi Jorabi,

If the machine receives a fax under one of the following conditions, the machine will not be able to print the received fax and will store it in the machine's memory. When the problem is resolved as described, the fax stored in the machine's memory is printed automatically.

• The amount of remaining ink is insufficient to print a fax:

  Replace the FINE cartridge.

  Replacing a FINE Cartridge

  Note

  • You can set the machine to forcibly print a received fax even if the ink has run out.

    Set Print when no ink in Auto print settings under Fax settings to Print.

    However, part or all of the fax may not be printed since the ink has run out.

    Also, the contents of the fax will not be stored in the machine's memory.

    If the ink has already run out, we recommend that Do not print be selected for Received documents in Auto print settings under Fax settings to store the received fax in the machine's memory. After you replace the FINE cartridge and select Print for Received documents in Auto print settings, the fax stored in the machine's memory will be printed automatically.

    Auto print settings
