ECM RX
The ECM (Error Correction Mode) detects and corrects
errors that occur during fax transmissions. It helps in
minimizing sending errors caused by a poor connection.
NOTE
Check if the ECM is enabled on the receiving fax
machine
The ECM is effective only when it is enabled on both machines.
An error occurs even when the ECM is enabled
The error may be caused by poor telephone line conditions.
When telephone line conditions are poor
It may take additional time to receive your fax if a problem occurs
when sending over the telephone line.
