Set up fax
You can set up fax using the software wizard (recommended) during the software installation or after installation
using Fax Setup Wizard from the software (Windows) or Basic Fax Settings from HP Utility (OS X), or continue with
the steps below.
1. If your country or region is listed below, visit www.hp.com/uk/faxconfig for setup information. Otherwise,
follow the instructions in this guide.

2. Connect the phone line.
Note: 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. Contact your phone company to determine which setup
options are best for you.
If the phone line is only used for fax
a. Connect one end of the phone cord to the phone wall jack.
b. Connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
Note: If you have subscribed to a DSL/ADSL service, connect a DSL/ADSL filter between the 1-LINE port and the
phone wall jack.
If additional devices are connected to the phone line
If you have other devices to connect, connect them as shown in the diagram below:
Fax on VoIP**
* TAM: Telephone answering machine
** Fax on VoIP: Fax on Voice over Internet Protocol
3. Test fax setup. The fax test checks hardware, verifies phone cord type and connection status, and checks for a
dial tone and an active phone line. To run the test:
a. From the Home screen on the control panel display, touch Fax.
b. Touch Setup, touch Setup Wizard, and then follow on-screen instructions.
