10 Fax setup

After completing all steps in the Setup Guide, use the instructions in this chapter to complete your fax setup. Please keep your Setup Guide for later use.

In this chapter, you will learn how to set up your HP All-in-One so that faxing works successfully with equipment and services you might already have on the same phone line as your HP All-in-One.

Tip You can also use the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or Setup Assistant (Macintosh) to help you quickly set up some important fax settings such as the answer mode and fax header information. You can access the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or Setup Assistant (Macintosh) through the HP Image Zone software. For information on accessing the HP Image Zone software, see Use the HP Image Zone to do more with your HP All-in-One. After you run the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or Setup Assistant (Macintosh), follow the procedures in this chapter to complete your fax setup.

Before you begin setting up your HP All-in-One for faxing, determine which kind of phone system your country/region uses. The instructions for setting up your HP All-in- One for faxing differ depending whether you have a serial or parallel phone system.

If the connector type on your shared telephone equipment (modems, phones, and answering machines) does not allow a physical connection to the "2-EXT" port on your HP All-in-One and instead must be connected at the 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 this list. If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (serial or parallel), check with your telephone company. This type of phone system uses a 4-wire phone cord to connect the HP All-in-One to the telephone wall jack.

If your country/region is listed in the table, you probably have a parallel-type telephone system. This type of phone system uses a 2-wire phone cord to connect the HP All-in-One to the telephone wall jack.
