Set up HP Digital Fax (Fax to PC or Fax to Mac)

Use Fax to PC and Fax to Mac to automatically receive faxes and save faxes directly to your computer. With Fax to PC and Fax to Mac, you can store digital copies of your faxes easily and also eliminate the hassle of dealing with bulky paper files.

In addition, you can turn off fax printing altogether— saving money on paper and ink, as well as helping reduce paper consumption and waste.

Received faxes are saved as TIFF (Tagged Image File Format). Once the fax is received, you get an on-screen notification with a link to the folder where the fax is saved.

For more information, see the onscreen User Guide available after you install the software.

NOTE: You must install the software before setting up Fax to PC or Fax to Mac.

If you are using an HP Officejet Pro device with a color display, you can use the device’s Fax to Network Folder or Fax to E-mail functions—two of the HP Digital Solutions provided with the HP device. For more information, see the HP Digital Solutions Getting Started Guide.
