Advanced fax receive settings

Phone Answering: Automatic or Manual

When Phone Answering is 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 “Manually
receiving faxes” on page 3-8 for instructions).

To change the

Phone Answering

setting:

Look at the HP OfficeJet’s keypad to determine the current Phone
Answering setting.

If the green

Auto Answer

light is on, the

Phone Answering

set-

ting is

Automatic

, and your HP OfficeJet is set to receive faxes

automatically. It will automatically answer every call you receive
at your fax number — after the number of rings specified in the
Rings to Answer setting — then send receiving fax tones.

If the

Auto Answer

light is off, the

Phone Answering

setting is

Manual

, and your HP OfficeJet can only receive faxes manually.

It will never answer incoming calls automatically.

Press the

Auto Answer

button to change the setting.

Notes:

If you haven’t changed your office equipment setup since you
answered the questions in the software during installation, don’t
permanently change this setting now or you may not receive your
faxes properly.

For a detailed description of how your office equipment should
be set up and the corresponding answering settings, see Step “7.
Connect Your Office Equipment - IMPORTANT!” on page 1-7.

If you decide to change this setting, you should do it only
temporarily (for one fax only), then change it back, or, if you
have changed your office equipment setup since you first
installed the software, re-run the Setup Wizard and make your
changes there. (Refer to “Updating your fax receive setup” on
page 3-22 for instructions on how to locate the Setup Wizard.)
