change the Answer Ring Pattern (distinctive ringing)
Distinctive ring, which allows you to have several phone numbers on the same
line, is usually offered by phone companies for an additional fee, and may not
be available in all regions. Each number has a specific ring pattern. If you do
not have this service, leave your HP OfficeJet set to use the default, All Rings.
If you connect your HP OfficeJet to a line with distinctive ringing, have your
telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another to fax
calls (double or triple rings are best for a fax number).
1 Verify that your HP OfficeJet is set to answer automatically.
2 Press Menu.
3 Press 6, then press 2.
This selects Advanced Fax Setup, then selects Answer Ring Pattern.
4 Press to scroll through these options: All Rings, Single Rings, Double
Rings, Triple Rings, and Double & Triple.
5 After the ring pattern that the phone company established for this number
appears, press Enter.
Tip: We recommend that you use Double Rings or Triple Rings.
