Analog faxing

On the HP LaserJet M3027x or the HP LaserJet M3035xs MFPs, the device can function as a standalone fax machine.

Connect the fax to a telephone line

When connecting the fax to a telephone line, ensure that the telephone line that is being used for the fax is a dedicated line that is not used by other devices. In addition, this line should be an analog line because the fax will not function correctly if it is connected to some digital PBX systems. If you are not sure whether you have an analog or digital phone line, contact your telecom provider.

NOTE HP recommends using the telephone cord that comes with the device to ensure that the fax functions correctly.

1.Remove the fax jack cover from the device, and then connect one end of the telephone cord to the fax jack. Push the connector until it clicks, and then replace the fax jack cover.

2.Connect the other end of the cord to the telephone jack on the wall. Push the connector until it clicks or until it is securely seated. Because different types of connectors are used in different countries/regions, the connector might not make an audible click.

Configure and use the fax features

Before you can use the fax features, you must configure them in the control-panel menus. For example, you need to specify the following information:

Date and time

Location

Fax header

For complete information about configuring and using the fax accessory, and for information about troubleshooting fax-accessory problems, see the HP LaserJet Analog Fax Accessory 300 User Guide, which is provided with the fax accessory.
