Changing the number of rings
before answering

When Phone Answering is set to Automatic, the HP OfficeJet will
automatically answer all calls after the number of rings specified in
the Rings to Answer 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.

When you first installed the HP OfficeJet Series 500 software, the
Setup Wizard asked you a series of questions about your phone lines
and equipment. Your answers determined the appropriate option for
this setting (and many others) and the Setup Wizard set it for you
automatically.

If you decide to change this setting now, you should do it only tempo-
rarily (for one fax only), then change it back, or, if you have changed
your office equipment setup since you first installed the HP OfficeJet,
re-run the Setup Wizard and make your changes there. (Refer to
“Updating your fax receive setup” later in this chapter for instruc-
tions.)

To change the Rings to Answer setting:

On your Windows desktop, double-click

ager

tab.
