Make sure the HP All-in-One is set to receive faxes automatically and that the Rings
to Answer setting is correct. The number of rings to answer for the HP All-in-One
should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering machine. Set
your answering machine to a low number of rings and the HP All-in-One to answer
in the maximum number of rings supported by your device. (The maximum number
of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering machine will answer
the call and the HP All-in-One will monitor the line. If the HP All-in-One detects fax
tones, the HP All-in-One will receive the fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering
machine will record the incoming message.

This selects Basic Fax Setup and then selects Rings to Answer.
3. Enter the appropriate number of rings by using the keypad, or press
or to
