You can use the HP Fax to send and receive faxes, including color faxes. You can
schedule faxes to be sent at a later time and set up speed-dials to send faxes quickly and
easily to frequently used numbers. From the control panel, you can also set a number of
fax options, such as resolution and the contrast between lightness and darkness on the
faxes you send.
NOTE: Before you begin faxing, make sure you have set up the HP Fax properly for
faxing.
You can verify the fax is set up correctly by running the fax setup test from the control
panel. To run the fax test, press Setup, select Tools, select Run fax test, and then press
OK.
