Forward faxes to another number

You can set up the printer to forward your faxes to another fax number. All faxes are forwarded in black and white, regardless of how they were originally sent.

HP recommends that you verify the number you are forwarding to is a working fax line. Send a test fax to make sure the fax machine is able to receive your forwarded faxes.

5.Touch On (Print and Forward) to print and forward the fax, or select On (Forward) to forward the fax.

NOTE: If the printer is not able to forward the fax to the designated fax machine (for example, if it is not turned on), the printer prints the fax. If you set up the printer to print error reports for received faxes, it also prints an error report.

If the printer loses power when fax forwarding is set up, it saves the fax forwarding setting and phone number. When the power is restored to the printer, the fax forwarding setting is still On.

NOTE: You can cancel fax forwarding by selecting Off from the Fax Forwarding menu.

Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes

The Automatic Reduction setting determines what the printer does if it receives a fax that is too large for the loaded paper size. This setting is turned on by default, so the image of the incoming fax is reduced to fit on one page, if possible. If this feature is turned off, information that does not fit on the first page is printed on a second page. Automatic Reduction is useful when you receive a Legal-size fax and Letter-size paper is loaded in the main tray.

To set automatic reduction from the printer control panel

1.From the printer control panel display, touch Setup.

2.Touch Fax Setup.
