Use the fax features

Chapter 11

you hear fax tones from the sending fax machine, press the Start Fax Black or Start Fax Color button on the control panel.

Note If you press Start Fax Color but the sender sent the fax in black and white, the HP all-in-one prints the fax in black and white.

Poll to receive a fax

Polling allows your HP all-in-one to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in its queue. When you use the Poll to Receive feature, the HP all-in-one calls the designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.

Note The HP all-in-one does not support polling pass codes. This is a security feature that requires the receiving fax machine (your HP all-in-one) to provide a pass code to the device it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the device you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or changed the default pass code) or the HP all-in-one will not be able to receive the fax.

1In the Fax area, press Menu. This displays the Fax Menu.

2Press 6 to select Poll to Receive.

3Enter the fax number of the other fax machine.

4Press Start Fax Black or Start Fax Color.

Note If you press Start Fax Color but the sender sent the fax in black and white, the HP all-in-one prints the fax in black and white.

Set the date and time

You can set the date and time from the control panel. When a fax is transmitted, the current date and time are printed along with the fax header. The date and time format is based on the language and country/region setting.

Note If your HP all-in-one loses power, you will need to reset the date and time.

1Press Setup.

2Press 4, and then press 1.

This displays the Basic Fax Setup menu and then selects Date and Time.

3Enter the month, day, and year by pressing the appropriate numbers on the keypad. Depending on your country/region setting, you might enter the date in a different order.

The underline cursor is presented initially beneath the first digit; it automatically advances to the next digit when you press a button. The time prompt automatically appears after you enter the last digit of the date.

4Enter the hours and minutes.

If your time is displayed in the 12-hour format, the AM or PM prompt automatically appears after you enter the last digit.

5If prompted, press 1 for AM, or 2 for PM.

The new date and time settings appear on the color graphics display.
