NOTE: You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port labeled "1-LINE" on the
printer. This means that your connection to the Internet must be done either through a converter box (which
supplies regular analog phone jacks for fax connections) or your telephone company.
TIP: Support for traditional fax transmission over any Internet protocol telephone systems are often limited. If
you experience problems faxing, try using a slower fax speed or disabling the fax error-correction mode
(ECM). However, if you turn off ECM, you cannot send and receive color faxes. (For more information about
changing the fax speed, see
Set the fax speed. For more information about using ECM, see Send a fax in
Error Correction Mode.
If you have questions about Internet faxing, contact your Internet faxing services support department or your local
service provider for further assistance.
Use reports
You can set up the printer to print error reports and confirmation reports automatically for each fax you send and
receive. You can also manually print system reports as required; these reports provide useful system information
about the printer.
By default, the printer is set to print a report only if there is a problem sending or receiving a fax. A confirmation
message that indicates whether a fax was successfully sent appears briefly on the control panel display after
each transaction.
NOTE: 1 If the reports are not legible, you can check the estimated ink levels from the control panel or the
HP software. For more information, see
Printer management tools.
NOTE: 2 Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive
a low-ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not
need to replace the ink cartridges until prompted to do so.
NOTE: 3 Ensure that the printheads and ink cartridges are in good conditions and installed properly. For
more information, see
Work with ink cartridges.

Print fax confirmation reports
If you require printed confirmation that your faxes were successfully sent, follow these instructions to enable fax
confirmation before sending any faxes. Select either On (Fax Send) or On (Send and Receive).
The default fax confirmation setting is Off. This means that a confirmation report is not printed for each fax sent
or received. A confirmation message indicating whether a fax was successfully sent appears briefly on the control
panel display after each transaction.
NOTE: You can include an image of the first page of the fax on the Fax Sent Confirmation report if you
select On (Fax Send) or On (Send and Receive), and if you scan the fax to send from memory or use the
Scan and Fax option.
