51
Selects settings that optimize the resolution and contrast for faxing a
photograph. This only applies to sending black and white paper faxes. The
image is scanned as bi-level half-tone. The PC fax driver automatically
converts the PC file to half-tone, which simulates gray in a fax.
•Very Fine
Selects very fine resolution for sending a fax.
Color of Paper Fax
Select Black and White for documents that are mostly text or black-and-white line
drawings; select Color for text, photographs, or other graphics that have color.
Contrast
Select the contrast that works best for the document you are faxing. Select a
lighter contrast if the original seems too dark; use a darker contrast if the original
seems too light. Contrast applies to paper faxes in the HP Officejet only; it will
not adjust the contrast of an electronic fax.
Other options
• Error Correction for Fax Send
Select to have the HP Officejet ask the sending fax machine to re-send a
page if it detects an error. If there is a lot of noise on the line (for example,
on international calls), sending a fax could take a long time because error
checking increases the transmission.

•Sent List
Lists the faxes you have sent from your HP Officejet.
If the status is “color unsupported,” you are trying to send a fax in color,
but the receiving fax cannot receive in color. The fax is sent in black and
white.
•View
Opens the selected fax in the HP Image Editor. In the HP Image Editor, you
can view and send the fax. You cannot edit the file unless you save it under
another name; then you can annotate and edit the fax.
You cannot view paper faxes that you sent or view fax files that have been
deleted.
