Fax over the Internet
You may subscribe to a low cost phone service that allows you to send and receive
faxes with your HP all-in-one 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 HP all-in-one and not from the Ethernet port. 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 HP all-in-one is sending
and receiving faxes at high speed (33600bps). If you experience problems sending and
receiving faxes while using an Internet fax service, use a slower fax speed. You can do
this by changing the
Fax Speed
setting from
High
(the default) to
Medium
. For
information on changing this setting, see
Set the fax speed
.
You should also check with your telephone company to make sure their Internet faxing
service supports faxing.
