● If you are sending a fax manually from your phone that is connected directly
to the HP All-in-One, you must use the keypad on the telephone to send the
fax. You cannot use the keypad on the control panel of the HP All-in-One.
Note If using a serial-type phone system, please connect your
phone directly on top of the HP All-in-One cable which has a wall plug
attached to it.
The HP All-in-One cannot receive faxes, but can send faxes
Solution
● If you are not using a distinctive ring service, check to make sure that the
Distinctive Ring feature on the HP All-in-One is set to All Rings . For
information, see Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ringing .
● If Auto Answer is set to Off , you will need to receive faxes manually;
otherwise, the HP All-in-One will not receive the fax. For information on
receiving faxes manually, see
Receive a fax manually .
● If you have a voice mail service at the same phone number you use for fax
calls, you must receive faxes manually, not automatically. This means that
you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls. For
information on setting up the HP All-in-One when you have a voice mail
service, see
Fax setup . For information on receiving faxes manually, see
Receive a fax manually .
● If you have a computer dial-up modem on the same phone line with the
HP All-in-One, check to make sure that the software that came with your
modem is not set to receive faxes automatically. Modems that are set up to
receive faxes automatically take over the phone line to receive all incoming
faxes, which prevents the HP All-in-One from receiving fax calls.
