Send a fax using monitor dialing
Monitor dialing allows you to dial a number from the control panel as you would dial a
regular telephone. When you send a fax using monitor dialing, you can hear the dial tones,
telephone prompts, or other sounds through the speakers on the HP Fax. This enables
you to respond to prompts while dialing, as well as control the pace of your dialing.
TIP: If you do not enter your calling card PIN fast enough, the HP Fax might start
sending fax tones too soon and cause your PIN not to be recognized by the calling
card service. If this is the case, you can create a speed dial entry to store the PIN for
your calling card.
NOTE: Make sure the volume is turned on, or you will not hear a dial tone.
To send a fax using monitor dialing from the control panel
1. Load your originals. For additional information, see Load originals .
2. Press START FAX Black or START FAX Color.
If the HP Fax detects an original loaded in the automatic document feeder, you will
hear a dial tone.
3. When you hear the dial tone, enter the number by using the keypad on the control
panel.
4. Follow any prompts that might occur.
TIP: If you are using a calling card to send a fax and you have your calling card
PIN stored as a speed dial, when prompted to enter your PIN, press Speed
Dial or a one-touch speed dial button to select the speed dial entry where you
have your PIN stored.
Your fax is sent when the receiving fax machine answers.
Send a fax from memory
You can scan a black-and-white fax into memory and then send the fax from memory.
This feature is useful if the fax number you are trying to reach is busy or temporarily
unavailable. The HP Fax scans the originals into memory and sends them once it is able
to connect to the receiving fax machine. After the HP Fax scans the pages into memory,
you can immediately remove the originals from the document feeder tray.
NOTE: You can only send a black-and-white fax from memory.
To send a fax from memory
1. Load your originals print side down into the document feeder tray.
2. In the Fax area, press Fax Menu.
The Enter Number prompt appears.
3. Enter the fax number by using the keypad, press Speed Dial or a one-touch speed
dial button to select a speed dial, or press Redial/Pause to redial the last number
dialed.
4. In the Fax area, press Fax Menu repeatedly until How to Fax appears.
