Test your fax setup

You can test your fax setup to check the status of the HP All-in-One and to make sure it
is set up properly for faxing. Perform this test after you have completed setting up the
HP All-in-One for faxing. The test does the following:

Tests the fax hardware

Verifies the correct type of phone cord is connected to the HP All-in-One

Checks that the phone cord is plugged into the correct port

Checks for a dial tone

Checks for an active phone line

Tests the status of your phone line connection

The HP All-in-One prints a report with the results of the test. If the test fails, review the
