Solution

Turn off the HP all-in-one by using the On button located on the control panel and then unplug the power cord from the back of the HP all-in-one. After a few seconds, plug the power cord back in and turn the power on. Run the test again. If the test fails again, continue reviewing the troubleshooting information in this section.

Try to send or receive a test fax. If you can send or receive a fax successfully, there might not be a problem.

If you have a Windows computer and are running the test from the Fax Setup Wizard, make sure the HP all-in-one is not busy completing another task, such as receiving a fax or making a copy. Check the control panel display for a message indicating that the HP all-in-one is busy. If it is busy, wait until it is finished and in the idle state, before running the test.

After you resolve any problems found, run the fax test again to make sure it passes and your HP all-in-one is ready for faxing. If the Fax Hardware Test continues to fail and you experience problems faxing, contact HP for support. For information on contacting HP for support, see Get HP support.
