Send a fax using monitor dialing

Monitor dialing allows you to dial a number from the control panel as you would dial a
regular telephone. When you send a fax using monitor dialing, you can hear the dial tones,
telephone prompts, or other sounds through the speakers on the HP All-in-One. This
enables you to respond to prompts while dialing, as well as control the pace of your
dialing.

NOTE:

Make sure the fax volume is turned on, or you will not hear a dial tone.

Send a fax in Error Correction Mode

Error Correction Mode (ECM) prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by detecting
errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting retransmission of the
erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even be reduced, on good
phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM might increase sending time and phone charges,
but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On. Turn ECM off only if it
increases phone charges substantially, and you can accept poorer quality in exchange
for reduced charges.
