Fax over Internet Protocol (FoIP)
You may subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive
faxes with your device by using the Internet. This method is called Fax over Internet
Protocol (FoIP). You probably use a FoIP service (provided by your telephone
company) if you:
• Dial a special access code along with the fax number, or
• 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 labeled "1-LINE" on the device. 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.
Some Internet faxing services do not work properly when the device is sending and
receiving faxes at high speed (33600 bps) or when sending color faxes. If you
experience problems sending and receiving faxes while using an Internet fax service,
use a slower fax speed and only send black-and-white faxes. You can do this by using
a lower Fax Speed setting. For information on changing this setting, see
Set the fax
speed.
NOTE: If you have questions about Internet faxing, contact your Internet faxing
services support department or your local service provider for further assistance.
Use reports
You can set up the device 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 device.
By default, the device 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, HP Solution Center (Windows), or HP Utility (Mac OS X).
NOTE: Ink level alerts and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes
only. When you receive a low-ink alert, consider having a replacement cartridge
available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink
cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.
