The HP All-in-One can receive faxes automatically or manually. If you turn off the Auto
Answer option, you will need to receive faxes manually. If you turn on the Auto
Answer option (the default setting), the HP All-in-One automatically answers incoming
calls and receives faxes after the number of rings specified by the Rings to Answer
setting. (The default Rings to Answer setting is five rings.)
You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is:
• Directly connected to the HP All-in-One (on the 2-EXT port)
• On the same telephone line, but not directly connected to the HP All-in-One
If you receive a legal-size fax and the HP All-in-One is not currently set to use legal-size
paper, the device reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded in the HP All-
in-One. If you have disabled the Automatic Reduction feature, the HP All-in-One might
print the fax on more than one page.
This section contains the following topics:
• Receive a fax manually
• Set up backup fax reception
• Reprint received faxes from memory
• Poll to receive a fax
• Forward faxes to another number
• Set the paper size for received faxes
• Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes
NOTE: If you installed a photo print cartridge for printing photos, you might want to
replace it with the black print cartridge when receiving faxes.
Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking with can send you a fax while
you are still connected. This is referred to as manual faxing. Use the instructions in this
section to receive a manual fax.
