Set the answer mode

The answer mode determines how the HP Fax answers incoming calls.

•Select Fax mode if you want to receive faxes automatically. The HP Fax will answer the telephone, automatically detect fax tones, and receive a fax.

•Select Tel mode if you want to receive faxes manually. You must be available to respond in person to the incoming fax call or the HP Fax does not receive faxes. Press START FAX Black or START FAX Color to begin receiving the fax.

•Select FaxTel mode if you want the HP Fax to answer faxes automatically after a certain number of rings that are specified by the Rings to Answer setting. If the HP Fax does not sense a fax signal, it will ring 5 times in a different tone to tell you it may be a regular telephone call. If you do not pick up the handset, it will try again to receive a fax after several more rings.

•Select AnswerMachine mode if you have an answering machine connected directly to the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of your HP Fax. When a call comes in, the answering machine answers and listens. If it detects fax tones, it receives the fax; otherwise, the answering machine records the caller's message. If the answering machine is switched off or not connected to your HP Fax, the HP Fax will automatically attempt to receive a fax after several rings.
