6 Use the fax features

You can use the HP All-in-One to send and receive faxes, including color faxes. You can set up speed dial entries to send faxes quickly and easily to frequently used numbers. From the control panel, you can also set a number of fax options, such as resolution and the contrast between lightness/darkness on the faxes you send.

Note Before you begin faxing, make sure you have set up the HP All-in-One properly for faxing. You might have already done this as part of the initial setup, by using either the control panel or the software that came with the HP All-in-One.

You can verify the fax is set up correctly by running the fax setup test from the control panel. You can access this test from the Setup menu.
