Set up the HP all-in-one to receive faxes Your HP all-in-one can be set up to receive faxes automatically or manually, depending on your home or office setup. If you set up the HP all-in-one to answer faxes automatically, it answers all incoming calls and receives faxes. If you set up the HP allin-one to answer faxes manually, you must be available to respond in person to the incoming fax call, or your HP all-in-one cannot receive faxes. For more information on receiving faxes manually, see Receive a fax manually. In certain situations you might want to receive faxes manually. For example, if you share a phone line between your HP all-in-one and phone and you do not have distinctive ringing or an answering machine, you will need to set up the HP all-in-one to answer fax calls manually. If you subscribe to a voice mail service, you will also need to answer fax calls manually. This is because the HP all-in-one will not be able to distinguish between fax calls and phone calls.
