Fax setup
After completing all the steps in the Setup Guide, use the instructions in this section to
complete your fax setup. Please keep your Setup Guide for later use.
In this section, you will learn how to set up the HP All-in-One so that faxing works
successfully with equipment and services you might already have on the same phone
line as the HP All-in-One.
Tip You can also use the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or Fax Setup Utility
(Mac) to help you quickly set up some important fax settings such as the answer
mode and fax header information. You can access the Fax Setup Wizard
(Windows) or Fax Setup Utility (Mac) through the software you installed with the
HP All-in-One. After you run the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or Fax Setup
Utility (Mac), follow the procedures in this section to complete your fax setup.
Set up the HP All-in-One for faxing
Before you begin setting up the HP All-in-One for faxing, determine which kind of phone
system your country/region uses. The instructions for setting up the HP All-in-One for
faxing differ depending on whether you have a serial- or parallel-type phone system.
● If you do not see your country/region listed in the table below, you probably have a
serial-type phone system. In a serial-type phone system, the connector type on your
shared telephone equipment (modems, phones, and answering machines) does not
allow a physical connection to the "2-EXT" port on the HP All-in-One. Instead, all
equipment must be connected at the telephone wall jack.
Note In some countries/regions that use serial-type phone systems, the
phone cord that came with the HP All-in-One might have an additional wall
plug attached to it. This enables you to connect other telecom devices to the
wall jack where you plug in the HP All-in-One.
● If your country/region is listed in the table below, you probably have a parallel-type
telephone system. In a parallel-type phone system, you are able to connect shared
telephone equipment to the phone line by using the "2-EXT" port on the back of the
HP All-in-One.
Note If you have a parallel-type phone system, HP recommends you use
the 2-wire phone cord supplied with the HP All-in-One to connect the HP All-
in-One to the telephone wall jack.
