Can not receive a fax on the cannon L170 Super G 3

I have the same problem. I can not receive a fax. It will fax out documents, but when I try to fax into the machine all I get is the busy signal.

    Have you taken a regular phone and listen to see if you have a good dial tone? Does this have a print/copy function? Does it work?

My cannon faxphone L170 has dark lines that come through whenever we receive a fax.

Are the faxes from the same person or different people?
(I have to ask, remember I don't know how much knowledge you have.) If yes, it could be on their end.
Does it do this with copies also? If yes, May be dust on the mirror or
something in the printer getting in the way of the laser.{slight possibility].
How many prints are on the printer? Could be a fuser issue.
