HP printers are designed specifically for use with traditional analog phone services. If you are in a digital phone environment (such as DSL/ADSL, PBX, or ISDN), you might need to use digital-to-analog filters or converters when setting up the printer for faxing. NOTE: HP does not guarantee that the printer will be compatible with all digital service lines or providers, in all digital environments, or with all digital-to-analog converters. It is always recommended that you discuss with the telephone company directly for the correct setup options based on their line services provided. Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol You might be able to subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive faxes with your printer by using the Internet. This method is called Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). The following are indications you probably use a VoIP service. ● Dial a special access code along with the fax number. ● 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 on the printer. 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. TIP: Support for traditional fax transmission over any Internet protocol telephone systems are often limited. If you experience problems faxing, try using a slower fax speed or disabling the fax error-correction mode (ECM). However, if you turn off ECM, you cannot send and receive color faxes. If you have questions about Internet faxing, contact your Internet faxing services support department or your local service provider for further assistance. View or print fax reports You can set up the printer to print error reports and confirmation reports automatically for each fax you send and receive. You can also manually print system reports as required; these reports provide useful system information about the printer. By default, the printer is set to print a report only if there is a problem sending or receiving a fax. A confirmation message that indicates whether a fax was successfully sent appears briefly on the control panel display after each transaction. NOTE: ● If the reports are not legible, you can check the estimated ink levels from the control panel or the HP software. For more information, see Check the ink levels. ● Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. Refill an ink tank that is low on ink to avoid any printing delay or print quality issue. ● Ensure that the printheads are installed properly, and the ink tanks are filled. For more information, see Manage ink and printheads. Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol 49
