fax setup

faxing with a PBX phone system or an ISDN line

If your telephone line has a PBX system, make sure you dial the number for an outside line before dialing the fax number.

Caution! Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is factory-set to “on.” This call-waiting tone will interfere with any fax transmission, and you will not be able to send or receive faxes with your HP Officejet. Refer to your digital PBX system’s documentation for instructions on how to turn off the call-waiting tone.

If you are using either a PBX or an ISDN converter, make sure the HP Officejet is connected to the port that is designated for fax and phone use.

Some ISDN systems allow you to configure the ports for specific phone equipment—for example, you might have assigned one for telephone and Group 3 fax and another for multiple purposes.

Note: If you have problems when connected to the fax/phone port of your ISDN converter, try using the port designated for multiple purposes (might be labeled “multi-combi” or something similar).

how to tell if the following instructions apply to you

The rest of the fax setup instructions in this chapter are intended for parallel-type telephone systems, which are most common in the countries/regions listed in the table below.

If all of your telephone equipment (modems, phones, answering machines, and faxes) connects directly to your telephone wall jack, you probably have a serial-type telephone system. Check the table below to make sure that your country/region does not appear in the list. If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (parallel or serial), check with your telephone company. If you have a serial system, you do not need to read further. If you have Caller ID on the line where you will install your HP Officejet, please refer to use caller ID on page 66 and block junk fax numbers on page 66.

If your country/region is listed, use the following instructions to complete your fax setup.

The HP 4255, 4215, and 4215xi are part of Hewlett-Packard's renowned line of multifunction printers (MFP) that cater to a variety of business needs. Designed for productivity, these models combine printing, scanning, copying, and faxing functions, making them ideal for small to medium-sized offices.

The HP 4255 is known for its high-speed printing capabilities, reaching up to 50 pages per minute, making it suitable for environments with high print volumes. This model features automatic duplex printing, which allows users to print on both sides of the paper, saving both time and resources. With a monthly duty cycle of up to 150,000 pages, it is built to handle heavy workloads. The 4255 includes a large input tray that can accommodate up to 4,700 sheets, reducing the frequency of paper reloading.

On the other hand, the HP 4215 and 4215xi offer similar functionalities but cater to a somewhat different market segment. The 4215 series provides solid performance with print speeds of up to 35 pages per minute. While it is slightly slower than the 4255, it still delivers excellent quality prints with a maximum resolution of 1200 x 1200 dpi. The 4215xi adds enhanced features such as an intuitive color touchscreen display, which simplifies navigation and operation for users of all skill levels.

These printers utilize HP’s innovative Print Contract Technology, which optimizes print quality and device efficiency. Their Smart Duplexing feature further enhances paper savings by automatically detecting when double-sided printing is more efficient. The devices are designed with a user-friendly interface, enabling quick access to all functions.

Connectivity options are abundant across these models, including USB, Ethernet, and wireless capabilities. This ensures that users can print directly from their computers, tablets, or smartphones, promoting a seamless workflow.

In terms of energy efficiency, all three models are ENERGY STAR certified. They incorporate features that minimize power consumption during idle periods and utilize HP's Instant-on Technology, which allows for fast warm-up times, saving both energy and time.

In conclusion, the HP 4255, 4215, and 4215xi printers exemplify reliability and efficiency in the MFP market. Their advanced features, high-speed printing capabilities, and exceptional multifunctionality make them valuable assets for any business looking to enhance productivity and streamline printing operations.
