receive a fax
Depending on how you set up your HP Officejet, you will either receive faxes
automatically or manually. For more information, see set the answer mode on
page 23.
Your HP Officejet is automatically set to print received faxes (unless you have
turned the auto-answer feature off). If you receive a legal-size fax and your
HP Officejet is not currently set to use legal-size paper, the unit automatically
reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded (unless you disabled the
automatic-reduction feature). For more information, see set automatic reduction
in the onscreen User’s Guide.
