send a fax from memory

Your HP Fax can scan a black-and-white fax from the automatic document feeder into memory before sending it. This feature is useful if the fax number you are trying to reach is busy. The HP Fax scans the originals into memory, and sends them once it is able to connect. You can immediately remove the originals from the HP Fax once the pages are scanned.

Note: Do not lift the handset if you want to send a fax from memory. If you use the handset, the fax is sent by scanning and sending each page.
