What You Should Do

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am having problems

Did you dial the number correctly? Verify that the

connecting to another fax

 

number you have is correct and that you entered it

machine

 

correctly. For example, you might need to dial a 9

 

 

to access an outside phone line.

 

• Is the HP Fax connected to the phone system

 

 

correctly? Check that the phone cord is firmly

 

 

connected to the port on the phone/fax line

 

 

connector. For more information, see “Check for

 

 

dial tone.”

 

Is the telephone wall-outlet working properly? Try

 

 

connecting a working telephone and phone cord

 

 

into the wall outlet you are using for the HP Fax. If

 

 

the phone does not work, call your local phone

 

 

company for service. If the phone does work, try

 

 

reconnecting the HP Fax to the telephone outlet

 

 

using a different phone cord.

 

Do you have a noisy phone-line connection? If the

 

 

failure was due to noise on the phone line, you may

 

 

be able to connect when you try again.

 

• Do you have extension phones or other equipment

 

 

on the same phone line as the HP Fax? Make sure

 

 

that extension phones are not off the hook.

 

 

Disconnect other phone equipment and try to send

 

 

the fax again.

 

Is something wrong with the receiving fax

 

 

machine? Check with the recipient. The receiving

 

 

fax machine may have a problem.

 

Are you using an Integrated Services Digital

 

 

Network (ISDN) service? The HP Fax is a Group 3

 

 

fax machine. It is not designed for direct

 

 

connection to an ISDN service. You can use the

 

 

HP Fax with an ISDN service by connecting it to an

 

 

analog telephone port (also called an R-interface)

 

 

on an ISDN terminal adapter.
