Receive a fax
Depending on the Answer Mode you select, the HP All-in-One can receive faxes
automatically or manually. If you select the Fax (the default setting), FaxTel or
AnswerMachine mode, the HP All-in-One will automatically answer incoming calls
and receive faxes after the number of rings specified by the Rings to Answer setting.
(The default Rings to Answer setting is five rings.) If the HP All-in-One is in Tel
mode, you will need to receive faxes manually.
You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is:
● Directly connected to the HP All-in-One (on the 2-EXT port)
● On the same telephone line, but not directly connected to the HP All-in-One
If you receive a legal-size fax and the HP All-in-One is not currently set to use legal-
size paper, the device reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded in the
HP All-in-One. If you have disabled the Automatic Reduction feature, the HP All-in-
One prints the fax on two pages.
● Receive a fax manually
● Set up backup fax reception
● Reprint received faxes from memory
● Forward faxes to another number
● Block junk fax numbers
Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking with can send you a fax
while you are still connected. This is referred to as manual faxing. Use the instructions
in this section to receive a manual fax.
Note If the HP All-in-One has a handset, you can pick it up to talk or listen for
fax tones.
To receive a fax manually
1. Make sure the HP All-in-One is turned on and you have paper loaded in the input
tray.
2. Remove any originals from the document feeder tray.
3. Set the Rings to Answer setting to a high number to allow you to answer the
incoming call before the HP All-in-One answers. Or, press Answer Mode
repeatedly until the Tel mode appears so the HP All-in-One manually receives a
fax.
