Fax over the Internet

You may subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive
faxes with your HP all-in-one by using the Internet. This method is called Fax over
Internet Protocol (FoIP). You probably use a FoIP service (provided by your telephone
company) if you:

Dial a special access code along with the fax number, or

Have an IP converter box that connects to the Internet and provides analog phone
ports for the fax connection.

Note

You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port
labeled "1-LINE" on the HP all-in-one and not from the Ethernet port. 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.

Some Internet faxing services do not work properly when the HP all-in-one is sending
and receiving faxes at high speed (33600bps). If you experience problems sending and
receiving faxes while using an Internet fax service, use a slower fax speed. You can do
this by changing the

Fax Speed

setting from

High

(the default) to

Medium

. For

information on changing this setting, see

Set the fax speed

.

You should also check with your telephone company to make sure their Internet faxing
service supports faxing.

Stop faxing

You can cancel a fax you are sending or receiving at any time.

To stop faxing from the control panel

➔ Press

Cancel

on the control panel to stop a fax you are sending or receiving. Look

for the

Fax Cancelled

message on the color graphics display. If it does not

appear, press

Cancel

again.

The HP all-in-one prints any pages it has already started printing and then cancels
the remainder of the fax. This can take a few moments.

To cancel a number you are dialing

➔ Press

Cancel

to cancel a number you are currently dialing.
