  • U01400

What usually causes it

  • The fax is trying to use tone dialing on a telephone service configured for pulse dialing. The problem occurs before document transmission, so scan quality, destination memory, and SMTP settings are unrelated.
  • The exact condition recorded for this code is: Tone dialing was attempted on a pulse-dial telephone line.
  • Check the fax line’s actual dialing service and set the machine’s dialing mode to match it. On a managed PBX, confirm whether an outside-line prefix or PBX setting changes the dialing requirement.

What to try

Step 1

Check the condition this code actually names

Set the fax line dialing mode to match the telephone service, then retry the call.

Step 2

Isolate the affected part of the workflow

Check the fax line’s actual dialing service and set the machine’s dialing mode to match it. On a managed PBX, confirm whether an outside-line prefix or PBX setting changes the dialing requirement.

Step 3

Run a controlled confirmation test

Place a short test fax after the dialing mode is corrected and listen only for normal call progress; do not change fax resolution or ECM during this first confirmation.

After each corrective action

Retry the original operation that produced U01400. If it works, stop there rather than moving into unrelated troubleshooting.

If the code returns

If U01400 returns on a line known to support tone dialing, record whether the machine is connected directly to the line or through a PBX/adapter because the intermediate telephone equipment may be presenting a different dialing environment.

When service may be needed

Do not modify telephone wiring beyond normal user connections. Persistent line-mode problems should go to the phone-system or fax administrator.
