Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring

Many phone companies offer a distinctive ring feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each number is assigned a different ring pattern. You can set up the HP Fax to answer incoming calls that have a specific ring pattern.

If you connect the HP Fax to a line with distinctive ring, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another ring pattern to fax calls. HP recommends that you request double or triple rings for a fax number. When the HP Fax detects the specified ring pattern, it answers the call and receives the fax.

If you do not have a distinctive ring service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.

NOTE: The HP Fax cannot receive faxes when the main phone number is off the hook.

To change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring via the control panel

1.Verify that the HP Fax is set to answer fax calls automatically.

2.Press Setup.

3.Press Advanced Fax Setup, and then press Distinctive Ring.

4.Press to select an option, and then press OK.

When the phone rings with the ring pattern assigned to your fax line, the HP Fax answers the call and receives the fax.

Set the fax error correction mode

Typically, the HP Fax monitors the signals on the phone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If it detects an error signal during the transmission and the error-correction setting is on, the HP Fax can request that a portion of the fax be resent.

Turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and you want to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be useful when you are trying to send a fax to another country/region or receive a fax from another country/region, or if you are using a satellite phone connection.

To set the fax error-correction mode

▲Control panel: Press Fax Menu, open the Advanced Fax Setup menu, and then use the Error correction mode option.

Set the dial type

Use this procedure to set tone-dialing or pulse-dialing mode. The factory-set default is Tone. Do not change the setting unless you know that your phone line cannot use tone dialing.

NOTE: The pulse-dialing option is not available in all countries/regions.
