Fax setup troubleshooting

This section contains fax setup troubleshooting information for the HP All-in-One. If
your HP All-in-One is not set up properly for faxing, you might experience problems
when sending faxes, receiving faxes, or both.

Tip

This section contains only setup-related troubleshooting. For additional

fax troubleshooting topics, such as problems with your printouts or slow fax
reception, see the onscreen Troubleshooting Help that came with your
HP Image Zone software.

If you are having faxing problems, you can print a fax test report to check the status of
your HP All-in-One. The test will fail if your HP All-in-One is not set up properly for
faxing. Perform this test after you have completed setting up your HP All-in-One for
faxing.
