If you turn on the Auto Answer option (the default setting), the printer automatically answers incoming calls and receives faxes after the number of rings that are specified by the Rings to Answer setting. (The default Rings to Answer setting is five rings.) If you receive a Legal-size or larger fax and the printer is not currently set to use Legal-size paper, the printer reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded. If you have disabled the Automatic Reduction feature, the printer prints the fax on two pages. NOTE: If you are copying a document when a fax arrives, the fax is stored in the printer memory until the copying finishes. This can reduce the number of fax pages stored in memory. • Receive a fax manually • Set up backup fax • Reprint received faxes from memory • Forward faxes to another number • Set the paper size for received faxes • Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes • Block unwanted fax numbers • Receive faxes to your computer using HP Digital Fax (Fax to PC and Fax to Mac) Receive a fax manually When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking with can send you a fax while you are still connected.
