Advanced fax receive settings
Phone Answering: Automatic or Manual
When Phone Answering is set to Automatic, the HP OfficeJet will
automatically answer every call received at your fax number. When
set to Manual, you must answer fax calls manually (see “Manually
receiving faxes” on page 3-8 for instructions).
To change the
Phone Answering
setting:
Look at the HP OfficeJet’s keypad to determine the current Phone
Answering setting.
If the green
Auto Answer
light is on, the
Phone Answering
set-
ting is
Automatic
, and your HP OfficeJet is set to receive faxes
automatically. It will automatically answer every call you receive
at your fax number — after the number of rings specified in the
Rings to Answer setting — then send receiving fax tones.
If the
Auto Answer
light is off, the
Phone Answering
setting is
Manual
, and your HP OfficeJet can only receive faxes manually.
It will never answer incoming calls automatically.
Press the
Auto Answer
button to change the setting.
Notes:
●
If you haven’t changed your office equipment setup since you
answered the questions in the software during installation, don’t
permanently change this setting now or you may not receive your
faxes properly.
●
For a detailed description of how your office equipment should
be set up and the corresponding answering settings, see Step “7.
Connect Your Office Equipment - IMPORTANT!” on page 1-7.
●
If you decide to change this setting, you should do it only
temporarily (for one fax only), then change it back, or, if you
have changed your office equipment setup since you first
installed the software, re-run the Setup Wizard and make your
changes there. (Refer to “Updating your fax receive setup” on
page 3-22 for instructions on how to locate the Setup Wizard.)
