HP J4660 manual Set the fax error correction mode, Set the dial type, To set the dial type

If you connect the device to a line with distinctive ring, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another ring pattern to fax calls. HP recommends that you request double or triple rings for a fax number. When the device detects the specified ring pattern, it answers the call and receives the fax.

If you do not have a distinctive ring service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.

NOTE: The HP fax cannot receive faxes when the main phone number is off the hook.

Set the fax error correction mode

Typically, the device monitors the signals on the phone line while it is sending or receiving a fax. If it detects an error signal during the transmission and the error- correction setting is on, the device can request that a portion of the fax be resent.

Turn off error correction only if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and you want to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning off the setting might be useful when you are trying to send a fax to another country/region or receive a fax from another country/region, or if you are using a satellite phone connection.
