To send a color fax from the control panel
1.
Load your originals print side up into the document feeder tray. If you are sending a
single-page fax, such as a photograph, you can also load your original print side down
on the glass.
NOTE:
If you are sending a multiple-page fax, you must load the originals in the
document feeder tray. You cannot fax a multiple-page document from the glass.
2.
Enter the fax number by using the keypad.
TIP:
To add a pause in the fax number you are entering, press the Symbols
(*) button repeatedly until a dash (-) appears on the display.
3.
Press Start Fax Color.
•
If the device detects an original loaded in the automatic document feeder,
the HP All-in-One sends the document to the number you entered.
•
If the device does not detect an original loaded in the automatic document
feeder, the Feeder Empty prompt appears. Make sure your original is loaded
print side down on the glass, and then press to highlight Fax original from
scanner glass, and press OK.
NOTE:
If the recipient's fax machine only supports black-and-white faxes, the HP All-
in-One automatically sends the fax in black and white. A message appears after the
fax has been sent indicating that the fax was sent in black and white. Press OK to
clear the message.
Change the fax resolution and
Lighter/Darker
settings
You can change the Resolution and Lighter/Darker settings for documents that you are
faxing.
NOTE:
These settings do not affect copy settings. Copy resolution and lightness/
darkness are set independently from fax resolution and lightness/darkness. Also, the
settings that you change from the control panel do not affect faxes you send from your
computer.
This section contains the following topics:
•
•
Change the Lighter/Darker setting
•
Change the fax resolution
The Resolution setting affects the transmission speed and quality of faxed black-and-
white documents. If the receiving fax machine does not support the resolution you have
chosen, the HP All-in-One sends faxes at the highest resolution supported by the
receiving fax machine.
NOTE:
You can only change the resolution for faxes that you are sending in black
and white. The HP All-in-One sends all color faxes using Fine resolution.
