Send a color original or photo fax

(HP Officejet J3600 only)
You can fax a color original or photo from the device. If it determines that the recipient's
fax machine only supports black-and-white faxes, the fax is sent in black and white.
HP recommends that you use only color originals for color faxing.

To send a color original or photo fax from the control panel
1.
Load your originals print side down into the document feeder tray.
2. In the Fax area, press Fax Menu.

The Enter Number prompt appears.

3. Enter the fax number by using the keypad, press Speed Dial or a one-touch speed

dial button to select a speed dial, or press Redial/Pause to redial the last number
dialed.

4. Press START FAX Color.

If the device detects an original loaded in the automatic document feeder, it sends
the document to the number you entered.

NOTE:

If the recipient's fax machine only supports black-and-white faxes, the

HP All-in-One automatically sends the fax in black and white. A message appears
after the fax has been sent indicating that the fax was sent in black and white.
Press OK to clear the message.

Change the fax resolution and Lighter / Darker settings

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.

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 device sends all color faxes using Fine resolution.
