send a color original or photo fax

You can fax a color original or photo from your HP Officejet. When sending a color fax, if your HP Officejet determines that the recipient’s fax machine only supports black-and-white faxes, the HP Officejet will send the fax in black and white.

We recommend that you use only color originals for color faxing.

1To load the original, do one of the following:

–If you are faxing a color original, load the original in the automatic document feeder.

–If you are faxing a photo, load the photo face down on the left front corner of the glass. You can only fax a single page from the glass.

For more information, see load originals on page 9.

Tip: To center a 4 by 6 inch (10 by 15 cm) photo, place the photo on the center of a blank letter- or A4-size page, and then place the original on the glass.

2Press Fax.

Enter Fax Number appears in the top line of the display.
