You can change the Resolution and Lighter / Darker settings for documents that you
are faxing.

NOTE:

These settings do not affect copy settings. Copy resolution and lightness/

darkness are set independently from fax resolution and lightness/darkness. Also, the
settings that you change from the control panel do not affect faxes you send from your
computer.

Change the fax resolution

The Resolution setting affects the transmission speed and quality of faxed black-and-
white documents. If the receiving fax machine does not support the resolution you have
chosen, the HP All-in-One sends faxes at the highest resolution supported by the
receiving fax machine.

NOTE:

You can only change the resolution for faxes that you are sending in black

and white. The HP All-in-One sends all color faxes using Fine resolution.
