HP Officejet 4100 4100 set up speed dialing

chapter 6

change the answer ring pattern (distinctive ringing)

Distinctive ringing is a feature offered by phone companies that allows several phone numbers to share the same line. Each number has a specific ring pattern. If you do not have this service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.

If you connect your HP Officejet to a line with distinctive ringing, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another to fax calls (double or triple rings are best for a fax number).

1Press Setup.

2Press 4, then press 2.

This selects the Advanced Fax Setup menu, then selects the Answer Ring Pattern option.

3Press to scroll through these options: All Rings, Single Rings, Double Rings, Triple Rings, and Double & Triple.

4When the ring pattern that the phone company established for this number appears, press Enter.

Tip: We recommend that you use Double Rings or Triple Rings for fax.

set up speed dialing

Through your HP Officejet or your computer, you can assign entries to fax numbers you use often. This lets you dial those numbers quickly using the front panel’s Speed Dial button and a one- or two-digit entry. You can create up to 100 individual speed-dial entries (the maximum for some models is 70).

We recommend that you use the software to set up speed-dial settings.

Note: A speed-dial entry can only be associated with one phone number; speed-dial groups are not supported.
