Receiving Printed Faxes
The HP OfficeJet is factory-set to print received faxes. Before you
receive a fax call, be sure to load the paper for receiving faxes, as
described in the section “Loading the Paper Supply” on page 2-2.
Answering settings
When you installed the HP OfficeJet Series 600 software, the Setup
Wizard asked you a series of questions about your phone lines and
equipment. Your answers determined which option was automatically
chosen for each of the Answering settings, and therefore determined
how your HP OfficeJet was set up to receive faxes.
There are two answering settings that affect how you receive faxes:
●
Phone Answering
(Automatic or Manual). When set to
Automatic, the HP OfficeJet will automatically answer every call
received at your fax number. When set to Manual, you must
answer fax calls manually (see the following section, “Manually
Receiving Faxes” for instructions).
For instructions on how to change this setting, refer to “Phone
Answering: Automatic or Manual” on page 3-19.
●
Rings to Answer
(1 ring through 6 rings). When Phone
Answering is set to Automatic, the HP OfficeJet will
automatically answer all calls after the number of rings specified
in this setting. For example, when Rings to Answer is set to 1
ring, your fax line will ring once, then the HP OfficeJet will begin
sending fax tones. For instructions on how to change this setting,
refer to “Changing the number of rings before answering” on
page 3-20.
Notes:
●
If you haven’t changed your office equipment setup since you
answered the questions in the software during installation, don’t
change your answering settings now or you may not receive your
faxes properly. If you have changed your office equipment setup,
refer to “Updating your fax receive setup” on page 3-22 for
instructions on how to re-run the HP OfficeJet Setup Wizard.
