Fax setup

Chapter 10

7Now you need to decide how you want the HP all-in-one to answer calls, automatically or manually:

–If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer calls automatically, it answers all incoming calls and receives faxes. Your HP all-in-one will not be able to distinguish between fax and voice calls in this case; if you suspect the call is a voice call, you will need to answer it before the HP all-in-one answers the call. To answer fax calls automatically, press the Auto Answer button until the light is on.

–If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer faxes manually, you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls or your HP all-in-one cannot receive faxes.

To answer fax calls manually, press the Auto Answer button until the light is off.

8Run a fax test. For information, see Test your fax setup.

If you pick up the phone before the HP all-in-one and hear fax tones from a sending fax machine, you will need to answer the fax call manually. For information, see Receive a fax manually.
