To set up your HP all-in-one with a separate fax line

1Using 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.

Caution If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to your HP all-in-one, you might not be able to fax successfully. This special phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your home or office. If the supplied phone cord is too short, see The phone cord that came with my HP all-in-one is not long enough for information on extending it.

2Set up the HP all-in-one to answer incoming calls automatically. Press the Auto Answer button until the light is on.

3(Optional) Change the Rings to Answer setting to one ring or two rings. For information on changing this setting, see Set the number of rings before answering.

4Run a fax test. For information, see Test your fax setup.

When the phone rings, your HP all-in-one will answer automatically after the number of rings you set in the Rings to Answer setting. Then it will begin emitting fax reception tones to the sending fax machine and receive the fax.
