HP LX manual Changing the Number of Rings to Answer, Setting Automatic Reduction

Changing the Number of Rings to Answer

The Rings to Answer setting determines the number of rings before the HP OfficeJet LX answers a call when the receive mode is set to Auto (see "Changing the Receive Mode," above). The range you can choose from varies by country (for example, 2-5 rings for the U.S. and Germany, 2-7 rings for the Netherlands), but the factory setting is 2 rings. To change the setting, click on the arrow to the right of the Rings to Answer box, then click on the desired number.

Answering machines also have a rings-to-answer feature. If you have an answering machine connected (according to scenario 3 in chapter 1), be sure the number of Rings to Answer in this dialog box is set to a lower number than your answering machine's setting. Otherwise, the answering machine may pick up all fax calls.

Setting Automatic Reduction

The Automatic Reduction setting controls whether or not each page of your incoming faxes will be reduced to fit on one page of the paper size you have loaded in the HP OfficeJet LX. The factory setting (Automatic Reduction=On) specifies that your incoming faxes will be automatically reduced to fit on the loaded paper; this setting is designed to save paper. When you don't want this reduction to take place, remove the check from the checkbox.

Example 1: Someone sends you a fax on legal-size paper, and you have letter-size paper loaded in the HP OfficeJet LX. With Auto Reduction=On, each page you receive is a 75% reduction of the legal-size original. With Auto Reduction=Off, the contents of each page are the same as (or very close to) the original size, but are split into two pages.

Example 2: Someone sends you a fax on letter-size paper, and you have letter-sized paper loaded in the HP OfficeJet LX. With Auto Reduction=On, each page you receive may be reduced slightly. With Auto Reduction=Off, the contents of each page are the same as (or close to) the original size, but may be split into two pages.

Note: The HP OfficeJet LX cannot print on the bottom 1/2 inch of the page, so a fax that fills a letter-size page may print on two pages if Automatic Reduction is turned off. We recommend that Automatic Reduction be left on unless maintaining the size of the original is important.
