send a fax manually from a telephone

recipient before you send the fax. This is useful if you want to inform the recipient
that you are going to send them a fax before sending it.
You can send a fax manually by the handset or by using an extension phone
that is directly connected to your HP Fax.
Note: The extension phone must be connected to the “2-EXT” port on the
back of the HP Fax. For information on setting up your HP Fax with your
