What You Should Do

 

 

 

 

 

 

Incoming calls are not being

Is the Auto Answer feature turned on? Verify that

answered

 

the green light next to the Auto Answer button on

 

 

the front panel is on. If the light is off, the HP Fax

 

 

will not automatically answer the phone when it

 

 

rings. For more information, see “Set the answer

 

 

mode.”

 

• 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 telephone answering machine on the

 

 

same phone line? If your HP Fax is on the same

 

 

phone line as an answering machine, you may need

 

 

to change the number of rings. For more

 

 

information, see “Use an answering machine not

 

 

available for direct connection.”

 

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.

papers, make sure you select the corresponding

 

 

paper-type settings.

 

Do the print cartridges need to be cleaned or

 

 

replaced? Print a Self-Test Report to check the

 

 

status of the print cartridges. If you notice missing

 

 

lines or gaps in the patterns, clean the cartridges. If

 

 

the problem persists, you may need to replace your

 

 

print cartridges.
