Solution: If you have an answering machine on the same phone line with the HP All-
in-One, do the following:
• Disconnect the answering machine and then try receiving a fax. If faxing is
successful without the answering machine, the answering machine might be
causing the problem.
• Reconnect the answering machine and record your outgoing message again.
Record a message that is approximately 10 seconds in duration. Speak slowly
and at a low volume when recording your message. Leave at least 5 seconds of
silence at the end of the voice message. There should be no background noise
when recording this silent time. Try to receive a fax again.
Cause: The answering machine is not set up properly with the HP All-in-One.
