back one at a time and rerunning the test each time, until you identify which piece of equipment is causing the problem.

If the Fax Line Condition Test fails without the other equipment, connect the HP all-in-one to a working phone line and continue reviewing the troubleshooting information in this section.

If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause faxing problems. (A splitter is a two-cord connector that plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try removing the splitter and connecting the HP all-in-one directly to the telephone wall jack.

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 Line Condition test continues to fail and you experience problems faxing, contact your telephone company and have them check the phone line.

The dial tone detection test failed

Solution

Other equipment, which uses the same phone line as the HP all-in-one, might be causing the test to fail. To find out if other equipment is causing a problem, disconnect everything from the phone line, and then run the test again. If the Dial Tone Detection Test passes without the other equipment, then one or more pieces of the equipment is causing problems; try adding them back one at a time and rerunning the test each time, until you identify which piece of equipment is causing the problem.

Try connecting a working phone and phone cord to the telephone wall jack that you are using for the HP all-in-one and check for a dial tone. If you do not hear a dial tone, contact your telephone company and have them check the line.

Make sure you have correctly connected the HP all-in-one to the telephone wall jack. Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP all-in-one, connect one end to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the back of your HP all-in-one. For more information on setting up your HP all-in-one for faxing, see Fax setup.

If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause faxing problems. (A splitter is a two-cord connector that plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try removing the splitter and connecting the HP all-in-one directly to the telephone wall jack.

If your telephone system is not using a standard dial tone, such as some PBX systems, this may cause the test to fail. This will not cause a problem sending or receiving faxes. Try sending or receiving a test fax.

Check to make sure the country/region setting is set appropriately for your country/region. If the country/region setting is not set or is not set correctly, the test may fail and you might have problems sending and receiving faxes. To check the setting, press Setup and then press 7. The language and country/ region settings appear on the color graphics display. If the country/region setting is incorrect, press OK and follow the prompts on the color graphics display to change it.

Make sure you connect your HP all-in-one to an analog phone line or you will not be able to send or receive faxes. To check if your phone line is digital, connect a regular analog phone to the line and listen for a dial tone. If you do not hear a normal sounding dial tone, it might be a phone line set up for digital
