Send a standard fax
You can easily send a single- or multiple-page black-and-white or color fax by using the printer control panel.

To use this feature, you must install the printer software using the installation program
provided on the HP software CD provided with the printer

 

 

Windows
1. Open the document on your computer that you want to fax.
2. On the File menu in your software application, click Print.
3. From the Name list, select the printer that has “fax” in the name.
4. To change settings (such as selecting to send the document as a black fax or
a color fax), click the button that opens the Printer Properties dialog box.
Depending on your software application, this button might be called Properties,
Options, Printer Setup, Printer, or Preferences.
5. After you have changed any settings, click OK.
6. Click Print or OK.
7. Enter the fax number and other information for the recipient, change any further
settings for the fax, and then click Send Fax. The printer begins dialing the fax
number and faxing the document.

 

Mac OS X
1. Open the document on your computer that you want to fax.
2. From the File menu in your software application, click Print.
3. Select the printer that has “(Fax)” in the name.
4. Select Fax Information from the pop-up menu.

5. Enter the fax number and other information in the boxes provided.

6. Select any other fax options you want, and then click Fax to begin dialing the fax
number and faxing the document.

 

To receive a fax manually
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and you have paper loaded in the main tray.
2. Remove any originals from the document feeder tray.
3. Set the Rings to Answer setting to a high number to allow you to answer the
incoming call before the printer answers. Or, turn off the Auto Answer setting so
that the printer does not automatically answer incoming calls.

If you are currently on the phone with the sender, instruct the sender to press
Start on their fax machine.
5. When you hear fax tones from a sending fax machine, do the following:
a. Touch Fax, and then select Start Black or Start Color.
b. After the printer begins to receive the fax, you can hang up the phone or
remain on the line. The phone line is silent during fax transmission.
