Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ringing

Many phone companies offer a distinctive ringing feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each number will have a different ring pattern. You can set up the HP All-in-One to answer incoming calls that have a specific ring pattern.

If you connect the HP All-in-One to a line with distinctive ringing, 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 HP All-in-One detects the specified ring pattern, it will answer the call and receive the fax.

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

To change the distinctive ring pattern from the control panel

1.Verify that the HP All-in-One is set to answer fax calls automatically.

2.Press Setup.

3.Press 5, and then press 1.

This selects Advanced Fax Setup and then selects Distinctive Ring.

4.Press to select an option, and then press OK.

When the phone rings with the ring pattern assigned to your fax line, the HP All-in- One answers the call and receives the fax.

Test your fax setup

You can test your fax setup to check the status of the HP All-in-One and to make sure it is set up properly for faxing. Perform this test after you have completed setting up the HP All-in-One for faxing. The test does the following:

●Tests the fax hardware

●Verifies the correct type of phone cord is connected to the HP All-in-One

●Checks that the phone cord is plugged into the correct port

●Checks for a dial tone

●Checks for an active phone line

●Tests the status of your phone line connection

The HP All-in-One prints a report with the results of the test. If the test fails, review the report for information on how to fix the problem and rerun the test.

To test your fax setup from the control panel

1.Set up the HP All-in-One for faxing according to your particular home or office setup instructions.

2.Insert the print cartridges and load full-size paper in the input tray before starting the test.
