set number of rings before answering

hp psc 2200 series

Pressing Start Color dials the number, then sends the fax as the pages are scanned. After a page has been scanned, the front panel prompts you to scan another page. To fax another page, press 1 (yes), otherwise press 2 (no). If you press 1, you will be prompted to load the original. Press Enter when prompted, after you have placed the original on the glass.

Depending on how you set up your HP PSC, you can receive faxes automatically or manually.

Your HP PSC is automatically set to print received faxes (unless you have turned the auto-answer feature off). If you receive a legal-size fax and your HP PSC is not currently set to use legal-size paper, the unit automatically reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded (unless you have disabled the automatic-reduction feature). For more information, see set automatic reduction on page 43.

Before manually receiving a fax to your HP PSC, we recommend that you remove any originals from the glass, so they are not accidentally processed.

To receive a fax manually

4Wait for the fax tones, then hang up the telephone.

You can specify how many rings should occur before your HP PSC automatically answers the phone. (The default is 6 rings.)
