This section contains the following topics:
##### Send a standard fax
You can easily send a single- or multiple-page black-and-white or color fax by using the printer control panel.
| | |---|
NOTE: If you need printed confirmation that your faxes were successfully sent, enable fax confirmation before sending any faxes.
Fax 45
TIP: You can also send a fax manually from a phone or by using monitor dialing. These features allow you to control the pace of your dialing. They are also useful when you want to use a calling card to charge the call and you have to respond to tone prompts while dialing.
###### To send a standard fax from the printer control panel
TIP: To add a pause in the fax number you are entering, touch * repeatedly, until a dash (-) appears on the display.
TIP: If the recipient reports issues with the quality of the fax you sent, you can try changing the resolution or contrast of your fax.
##### Send a standard fax from the computer
You can send a document on your computer as a fax, without printing a copy and faxing it from the printer.
NOTE: Faxes sent from your computer by this method use the printer’s fax connection, not your Internet connection or computer modem. Therefore, make sure the printer is connected to a working telephone line and that the fax function is set up and functioning correctly.
| | |---|
To use this feature, you must install the printer software using the installation program provided on the HP software CD provided with the printer.
###### Windows
###### Mac OS X
| | |---|
NOTE: If you cannot find the pop-up menu, try clicking the disclosure triangle next to the Printer selection.
##### Send a fax manually from a phone
Sending a fax manually allows you to make a phone call and talk with the recipient before you send the fax. This is useful if you want to inform the recipient that you are going to send them a fax before sending it. When you send a fax manually, you can hear the dial tones, telephone prompts, or other sounds through the handset on your telephone. This makes it easy for you to use a calling card to send your fax.
Depending on how the recipient has their fax machine set up, the recipient might answer the phone, or the fax machine might take the call. If a person answers the phone, you can speak with the recipient before sending the fax. If a fax machine answers the call, you can send the fax directly to the fax machine when you hear the fax tones from the receiving fax machine.
###### To send a fax manually from an extension phone
| | |---|
NOTE: Do not use the keypad on the control panel of the printer when manually sending a fax. You must use the keypad on your phone to dial the recipient's number.
| | |---|
NOTE: If a fax machine answers the call, you will hear fax tones from the receiving fax machine. Proceed to the next step to transmit the fax.
| | |---|
If you were speaking with the recipient before sending the fax, inform the recipient that they should press Start on their fax machine after they hear fax tones. The telephone line is silent while the fax is transmitting. At this point, you can hang up the telephone. If you want to continue speaking with the recipient, remain on the line until the fax transmission is complete.
##### Send a fax using monitor dialing
Monitor dialing allows you to dial a number from the printer control panel as you would dial a regular telephone. When you send a fax using monitor dialing, you can hear the dial tones, telephone prompts, or other sounds through the speakers on the printer. This enables you to respond to prompts while dialing, as well as control the pace of your dialing.
TIP: If you are using a calling card and do not enter your PIN fast enough, the printer might start sending fax tones too soon and cause your PIN not to be recognized by the calling card service. If this is the case, you can create a speed dial entry to store the PIN for your calling card. For more information, see Set up speed-dial entries.
| | |---|
NOTE: Make sure the volume is turned on to hear a dial tone.
###### To send a fax using monitor dialing from the printer control panel
TIP: If you are using a calling card to send a fax and you have your calling card PIN stored as a speed dial, when prompted to enter your PIN, touch

(Speed Dial) to select the speed dial entry where you have your PIN stored.
Your fax is sent when the receiving fax machine answers.
##### Send a fax from memory
You can scan a black-and-white fax into memory and then send the fax from memory. This feature is useful if the fax number you are trying to reach is busy or temporarily unavailable. The printer scans the originals into memory and sends them once it is able to connect to the receiving fax machine. After the printer scans the pages into memory, you can immediately remove the originals from the document feeder tray or scanner glass.
| | |---|
NOTE: You can only send a black-and-white fax from memory.
###### To send a fax from memory


##### Schedule a fax to send later
You can schedule a black-and-white fax to be sent within the next 24 hours. This enables you to send a black-and-white fax late in the evening, when phone lines are not as busy or phone rates are lower, for example. The printer automatically sends your fax at the specified time.
You can only schedule one fax to be sent at a time. You can continue to send faxes normally, however, while a fax is scheduled.
| | |---|
NOTE: You can only send scheduled faxes in black-and-white.
###### To schedule a fax from the printer control panel




###### To cancel a scheduled fax
– OR – Touch Fax, and then select Fax Options or Fax Settings.
##### Send a fax to multiple recipients
You can send a fax to multiple recipients at once by grouping individual speed dial entries into group speed dial entries.
###### To send a fax to multiple recipients using group speed dial

| | |---|
NOTE: You can only use group speed dial entries to send faxes in black and white, because of memory limitations. The printer scans the fax into memory then dials the first number. When a connection is made, it sends the fax and dials the next number. If a number is busy or not answering, the printer follows the settings for Busy Redial and No Answer Redial. If a connection cannot be made, the next number is dialed and an error report is generated.
##### Send a fax in Error Correction Mode
Error Correction Mode (ECM) prevents loss of data due to poor phone lines by detecting errors that occur during transmission and automatically requesting retransmission of the erroneous portion. Phone charges are unaffected, or might even be reduced, on good phone lines. On poor phone lines, ECM increases sending time and phone charges, but sends the data much more reliably. The default setting is On. Turn ECM off only if it increases phone charges substantially, and if you can accept poorer quality in exchange for reduced charges.
Before turning the ECM setting off, consider the following. If you turn ECM off:
###### To change the ECM setting from the control panel
Receive a fax
You can receive faxes automatically or manually. If you turn off the Auto Answer option, you must receive faxes manually. If you turn on the Auto Answer option (the default setting), the printer automatically answers incoming calls and receives faxes after the number of rings that are specified by the Rings to Answer setting. (The default Rings to Answer setting is five rings.)
If you receive a Legal-size or larger fax and the printer is not currently set to use Legalsize paper, the printer reduces the fax so that it fits on the paper that is loaded. If you have disabled the Automatic Reduction feature, the printer prints the fax on two pages.
NOTE: If you are copying a document when a fax arrives, the fax is stored in the printer memory until the copying finishes. This can reduce the number of fax pages stored in memory.
| | |---|
##### Receive a fax manually
When you are on the phone, the person you are speaking with can send you a fax while you are still connected. This is referred to as manual faxing. Use the instructions in this section to receive a manual fax.
NOTE: You can pick up the handset to talk or listen for fax tones. You can receive faxes manually from a phone that is:

###### To receive a fax manually
##### Set up backup fax
Depending on your preference and security requirements, you can set up the printer to store all the faxes it receives, only the faxes it receives while the printer is in an error condition, or none of the faxes it receives.
The following backup fax modes are available:
|On|The default setting. When Backup fax is On, the printer stores all received faxes in memory. This enables you to reprint up to eight of the most recently printed faxes if they are still saved in memory.
NOTE: When printer memory is low, it overwrites the oldest, printed faxes as it receives new faxes. If the memory becomes full of unprinted faxes, the printer stops answering incoming fax calls.
NOTE: If you receive a fax that is too large, such as a very detailed color photo, it might not be stored in memory due to memory limitations.| |---|---| |On Error Only|Causes the printer to store faxes in memory only if an error condition exists that prevents the printer from printing the faxes (for example, if the printer runs out of paper). The printer continues to store incoming faxes as long as there is memory available. (If the memory becomes full, the printer stops answering incoming fax calls.) When the error condition is resolved, the faxes stored in memory print automatically, and then they are deleted from memory.| |Off|Faxes are never stored in memory. For example, you might want to turn off Backup fax for security purposes. If an error condition occurs that prevents the printer from printing (for example, the printer runs out of paper), the printer stops answering incoming fax calls.|
| | |---|
NOTE: If backup fax is enabled and you turn the printer off, all faxes stored in memory are deleted, including any unprinted faxes that you might have received while the printer was in an error condition. You must contact the senders to ask them to resend any unprinted faxes. For a list of the faxes you have received, print the Fax Log. The Fax Log is not deleted when the printer is turned off.
###### To set backup fax from the printer control panel
##### Reprint received faxes from memory
If you set the Backup fax mode to On, the received faxes are stored in memory, whether the printer has an error condition or not.
NOTE: After the memory becomes full, the oldest, printed faxes are overwritten as new faxes are received. If all the stored faxes are unprinted, the printer does not receive any fax calls until you print or delete the faxes from memory. You might also want to delete the faxes in memory for security or privacy purposes.
| | |---|
Depending on the sizes of the faxes in memory, you can reprint up to eight of the most recently printed faxes, if they are still in memory. For example, you might need to reprint your faxes if you lost the copy of your last printout.
###### To reprint faxes in memory from the printer control panel
##### Poll to receive a fax
Polling allows the printer to ask another fax machine to send a fax that it has in its queue. When you use the Poll to Receive feature, the printer calls the designated fax machine and requests the fax from it. The designated fax machine must be set for polling and have a fax ready to send.
| | |---|
NOTE: The printer does not support polling pass codes. Polling pass codes are a security feature that require the receiving fax machine to provide a pass code to the printer it is polling in order to receive the fax. Make sure the printer you are polling does not have a pass code set up (or has not changed the default pass code) or the printer cannot receive the fax.
###### To set up poll to receive a fax from the printer control panel
##### Forward faxes to another number
You can set up the printer to forward your faxes to another fax number. A received color fax is forwarded in black and white.
HP recommends that you verify the number you are forwarding to is a working fax line. Send a test fax to make sure the fax machine is able to receive your forwarded faxes.
###### To forward faxes from the printer control panel
| | |---|
NOTE: If the printer is not able to forward the fax to the designated fax machine (for example, if it is not turned on), the printer prints the fax. If you set up the printer to print error reports for received faxes, it also prints an error report.
| | |---|
NOTE: You can cancel fax forwarding by selecting Off from the Fax Forwarding menu.
##### Set the paper size for received faxes
You can select the paper size for received faxes. The paper size you select should match what is loaded in your main tray. Faxes can be printed on Letter, A4, or Legal paper only.
NOTE: If an incorrect paper size is loaded in the main tray when you receive a fax, the fax does not print and an error message appears on the display. Load Letter, A4, or Legal paper, and then touch OK to print the fax.
| | |---|
###### To set the paper size for received faxes from the printer control panel
##### Set automatic reduction for incoming faxes
The Automatic Reduction setting determines what the printer does if it receives a fax that is too large for the default paper size. This setting is turned on by default, so the image of the incoming fax is reduced to fit on one page, if possible. If this feature is turned off, information that does not fit on the first page is printed on a second page. Automatic Reduction is useful when you receive a Legal-size fax and Letter-size paper is loaded in the main tray.
###### To set automatic reduction from the printer control panel
##### Block unwanted fax numbers
If you subscribe to a caller ID service through your phone provider, you can block specific fax numbers so the printer does not print faxes received from those numbers.
When an incoming fax call is received, the printer compares the number to the list of junk fax numbers to determine if the call should be blocked. If the number matches a number in the blocked fax numbers list, the fax is not printed. (The maximum number of fax numbers you can block varies by model.)
NOTE: This feature is not supported in all countries/regions. If it is not supported in your country/region, Junk Fax Blocker does not appear in the Fax Options or Fax Settings menu. NOTE: If no phone numbers are added in the Caller ID list, it is assumed that you are not subscribed to a Caller ID service.

Change fax settings
After completing the steps in the getting started guide that came with the printer, use the following steps to change the initial settings or to configure other options for faxing.
##### Configure the fax header
The fax header prints your name and fax number on the top of every fax you send. HP recommends that you set up the fax header by using the HP software provided with the printer. You can also set up the fax header from the printer control panel, as described here.
| | |---|
NOTE: In some countries/regions, the fax header information is a legal requirement.
###### To set or change the fax header
##### Set the answer mode (Auto answer)
The answer mode determines whether the printer answers incoming calls.
###### To set the answer mode
##### Set the number of rings before answering
If you turn on the Auto Answer setting, you can specify how many rings occur before incoming calls are automatically answered.
The Rings to Answer setting is important if you have an answering machine on the same phone line as the printer, because you want the answering machine to answer the phone before the printer does. The number of rings to answer for the printer should be greater than the number of rings to answer for the answering machine.
For example, set your answering machine to a low number of rings and the printer to answer in the maximum number of rings. (The maximum number of rings varies by country/region.) In this setup, the answering machine answers the call and the printer monitors the line. If the printer detects fax tones, it receives the fax. If the call is a voice call, the answering machine records the incoming message.
###### To set the number of rings before answering


##### Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring
Many phone companies offer a distinctive ring feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one phone line. When you subscribe to this service, each number is assigned a different ring pattern. You can set up the printer to answer incoming calls that have a specific ring pattern.
If you connect the printer to a line with distinctive ring, have your telephone company assign one ring pattern to voice calls and another ring pattern to fax calls. HP recommends that you request double or triple rings for a fax number. When the printer detects the specified ring pattern, it answers the call and receives the fax.
TIP: You can also use the Ring Pattern Detection feature in the printer’s control panel to set distinctive ring. With this feature, the printer recognizes and records the ring pattern of an incoming call and, based on this call, automatically determines the distinctive ring pattern assigned by your telephone company to fax calls.
If you do not have a distinctive ring service, use the default ring pattern, which is All Rings.
| | |---|
NOTE: The printer cannot receive faxes when the main phone number is off the hook.
###### To change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring
• Touch the ring pattern assigned by your telephone company to fax calls.
•TouchRing Pattern Detection, and then follow the instructions on the printer’s control panel.
| | |---|
NOTE: If the Ring Pattern Detection feature cannot detect the ring pattern or if you cancel the feature before it finishes, the ring pattern is automatically set to the default, which is All Rings.
NOTE: If you are using a PBX phone system that has different ring patterns for internal and external calls, you must call the fax number from an external number.
##### Set the dial type
Use this procedure to set tone-dialing or pulse-dialing mode. The factory-set default is Tone. Do not change the setting unless you know that your phone line cannot use tone dialing.
| | |---|
NOTE: The pulse-dialing option is not available in all countries/regions.
###### To set the dial type

##### Set the redial options
If the printer was unable to send a fax because the receiving fax machine did not answer or was busy, the printer attempts to redial based on the settings for the busyredial and no-answer-redial options. Use the following procedure to turn the options on or off.
###### To set the redial options
options.
##### Set the fax speed
You can set the fax speed used to communicate between your printer and other fax machines when sending and receiving faxes.

Fax and digital phone services
Many telephone companies provide their customers with digital phone services, such as the following:
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 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 over Internet Protocol (FoIP).
You probably use a FoIP service (provided by your telephone company) when you:
| | |---|
NOTE: You can only send and receive faxes by connecting a phone cord to the port labeled "1-LINE" 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. (For more information about changing the fax speed, see Set the fax speed. For more information about using ECM, see Send a fax in Error Correction Mode.
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 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 Printer management tools.
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 prompted to do so.
NOTE: Ensure that the printheads and ink cartridges are in good conditions and installed properly. For more information, see Work with ink cartridges.

NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the printer and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage.
Printing with black or color ink only
For regular usage, this product is not designed to print using only the black cartridge when the color cartridges are out of ink.
However, your printer is designed to let you print as long as possible when your cartridges start to run out of ink.
When there is sufficient ink in the printhead, the printer will offer you the use of black ink only when one or more of the color cartridges are out of ink, and the use of color ink only when the black cartridge is out of ink.
CAUTION: While ink cartridges are not damaged when left outside of the printer, the printhead does need to have all cartridges installed at all times after the printer is set up and in use. Leaving one or more cartridge slots empty for an extended period may lead to print quality problems and possibly damage the printhead. If you have recently left a cartridge out of the printer for an extended period, or if you have had a recent paper jam, and have noticed poor print quality, clean the printhead.

Print quality troubleshooting
Try the solutions in this section to resolve print quality problems in your printout.
###### Solution 1: Make sure you are using original HP ink cartridgesSolution: Check to see if your ink cartridges are original HP ink cartridges.
HP recommends that you use original HP ink cartridges. Original HP ink cartridges are designed and tested with HP printers to help you easily produce great results, time after time.
| | |---|
NOTE: HP cannot guarantee the quality or reliability of non-HP supplies. Printer service or repairs required as a result of using a non-HP supply are not covered under warranty.
If you believe you purchased original HP ink cartridges, go to: www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit
Cause: Non-HP ink cartridges were being used. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
####### Solution 2: Check the ink levelsSolution: Check the estimated ink levels in the ink cartridges.
| | |---|
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 prompted to do so.
CAUTION: While ink cartridges are not damaged when left outside of the printer, the printhead does need to have all cartridges installed at all times after the printer is set up and in use. Leaving one or more cartridge slots empty for an extended period may lead to print quality problems and possibly damage the printhead. If you have recently left a cartridge out of the printer for an extended period, or if you have had a recent paper jam, and have noticed poor print quality, clean the printhead. For more information, see Clean the printhead.
For more information, see: Check the estimated ink levels Cause: The ink cartridges might have insufficient ink. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
###### Solution 3: Check the paper loaded in the input tray
Solution: Make sure the paper is loaded correctly and that it is not wrinkled or too thick.
For more information, see: Load media Cause: The paper was loaded incorrectly, or it was wrinkled or too thick. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
###### Solution 4: Check the paper type
Solution: HP recommends that you use HP papers or any other paper type with ColorLok technology that is appropriate for the printer. All papers with the ColorLok logo are independently tested to meet high standards of reliability and print quality, and produce documents with crisp, vivid color, bolder blacks and dry faster than ordinary plain papers.
Always make sure the paper you are printing on is flat. For best results when printing images, use HP Advanced Photo Paper.
Store specialty media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the
paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag. This prevents the photo paper from curling.
NOTE: For this issue, there is not a problem with your ink supplies. Therefore, replacing the ink cartridges is not necessary.
| | |---|
For more information, see: Select print media Cause: The wrong kind of paper was loaded in the input tray. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.
| | |---|
NOTE: On some computer screens, colors might appear differently than they do when printed on paper. In this case, there is nothing wrong with the printer, print settings, or ink cartridges. No further troubleshooting is required.
For more information, see: Select print media Cause: The print settings were set incorrectly. If this did not solve the issue, try the next solution.

If defects are seen on the Print Quality Diagnostic report, follow the steps below:
Cause: Print quality problems can have many causes: software settings, a poor image file, or the printing system itself. If you are unhappy with the quality of your prints, a Print Quality Diagnostic page can help you determine if the printing system is working correctly.
If prompted, choose your country/region, and then click Contact HP for information on calling for technical support.

Cause: There was a problem with the printhead.
##### Printhead maintenance
If you are experiencing problems with printing, you might have a problem with the printhead. You should perform the procedures in the following sections only when directed to do so for resolving print quality issues.
Performing the aligning and cleaning procedures unnecessarily can waste ink and shorten the life of the cartridges.
This section contains the following topics:
###### Clean the printhead
If your printed output is streaked or has any incorrect or missing colors, the printhead might need to be cleaned.
There are two stages of cleaning. Each stage lasts about two minutes, uses one sheet of paper, and uses an increasing amount of ink. After each stage, review the quality of the printed page. You should only initiate the next phase of cleaning if the print quality is poor.
If print quality still seems poor after you complete both stages of cleaning, try aligning the printer. If print quality problems persist after cleaning and aligning, contact HP support. For more information, see HP support.
| | |---|
NOTE: Cleaning uses ink, so clean the printhead only when necessary. The cleaning process takes a few minutes. Some noise might be generated in the process. Before cleaning the printhead, make sure you load paper. For more information, see Load media.
Not turning the printer off correctly can cause print quality problems. For more information, see Turn off the printer.
###### To clean the printhead from the control panel

###### Step 2: Make sure that the printer is connected to your network
If your printer is not connected to the same network as your computer, you cannot use the printer over the network. Follow the steps described in this section to find out if your printer is actively connected to the correct network.
| | |---|
NOTE: If your wireless router or Apple AirPort Base Station is using a hidden SSID, your printer cannot automatically detect the network.
###### A: Make sure the printer is on the network
|Network Status|• If the Network Status is Ready, the printer is actively connected to a network.
• If the Network Status is Offline, the printer is not connected to a network. Run the Wireless Network Test using the instructions at the beginning of this section, and then follow any recommendations.
| |---|---| |URL|The URL shown here is the network address assigned to the printer by your router. You need this to connect to the embedded web server (EWS).|
For information about connecting the printer to a wireless network, see Set up the printer for wireless communication.
###### B: Check to see if you can access the EWS
After you establish that the computer and the printer both have active connections to a network, you can verify if they are on the same network by accessing the printer's EWS. For more information, see Embedded web server.
###### To access the EWS
| |
|---|
NOTE: If you are using a proxy server in your browser, you might need to disable it to access the EWS.
###### Step 3: Check to see if the firewall software is blocking communication
If you cannot access the EWS and are sure both the computer and printer have active connections to the same network, the firewall security software might be blocking communication. Temporarily turn off any firewall security software running on your computer and then try to access the EWS again. If you can access the EWS, try using the printer (for printing).
If you are able to open the EWS and use your printer with the firewall turned off, you need to reconfigure your firewall settings to allow the computer and printer to
communicate with each other over the network. For more information, see Configure your firewall software to work with the printer.
If you are able to access the EWS, but are still unable to use the printer even with the firewall turned off, try enabling the firewall software to recognize the printer. For more information, see the documentation provided with your firewall software.
###### Step 4: Make sure the printer is online and ready
If you have the HP software installed, you can check the printer’s status from your computer to see if the printer is paused or offline, preventing you from using it. To check the printer’s status, follow the instructions for your operating system:
Windows
Mac OS X
If you can use the printer after performing the steps above but find that the symptoms persist as you continue to use the printer, your firewall might be interfering. For more information, see Configure your firewall software to work with the printer
If you still cannot use the printer over the network, continue to the next section for additional troubleshooting help
###### Step 5: Make sure the wireless version of the printer is set as the default printerdriver (Windows only)
If you install the HP software again, the installer might create a second version of the printer driver in your Printers or Printers and Faxes or Devices and Printers folder. If
you have difficulties printing or connecting to the printer, make sure the correct version of the printer driver is set as the default.
###### 1. Click Start, and then click Printers or Printers and Faxes or Devices andPrinters.
####### 2. Determine if the version of the printer driver in the Printers or Printers andFaxes or Devices and Printers folder is connected wirelessly:a. Right-click the printer icon, and then click Properties, Document Defaults,
or Printing Preferences.
b. On the Ports tab, look for a port in the list with a checkmark. The version of the printer driver that is connected wirelessly has HP network re-discovery port monitor as the Port description, next to the checkmark.
####### 3. Right-click the printer icon for the version of the printer driver that is connectedwirelessly, and select Set as Default Printer.
| | |---|
NOTE: If there is more than one icon in the folder for the printer, right-click the printer icon for the version of the printer driver that is connected wirelessly, and select Set as Default Printer.

If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (serial or parallel), check with your telephone company. This section contains the following topics:
Select the correct fax setup for your home or office To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any) share the same phone line with the printer. This is important because you might need to connect some of your existing office equipment directly to the printer, and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax successfully.
| | |---|
NOTE: If your home or office setup is not described in this section, set up the printer as you would a regular analog phone. Make sure you use the phone cord supplied in the box to connect one end to your telephone wall jack and the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer. If you use another phone cord, you might experience problems sending and receiving faxes. You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your country/ region.

######### To set up the printer with a separate fax line
| | |---|
NOTE: You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your country/region. If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the printer, you might not be able to fax successfully. This special phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your home or office.
When the phone rings, the printer answers automatically after the number of rings you set in the Rings to Answer setting. The printer begins emitting fax reception tones to the sending fax machine and receives the fax.
###### Case B: Set up the printer with DSL
If you have a DSL service through your telephone company, and do not connect any equipment to the printer, use the instructions in this section to connect a DSL filter between the telephone wall jack and the printer. The DSL filter removes the digital signal that can interfere with the printer, so the printer can communicate correctly with the phone line. (DSL might be called ADSL in your country/region.)
| | |---|
NOTE: If you have a DSL line and you do not connect the DSL filter, you cannot send and receive faxes with the printer.

This special phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your home or office. As only one phone cord is supplied, you might need to obtain additional phone cords for this setup.
###### Case C: Set up the printer with a PBX phone system or an ISDN line
If you are using either a PBX phone system or an ISDN converter/terminal adapter, make sure you do the following:
| |
|---|
NOTE: Some ISDN systems allow you to configure the ports for specific phone equipment. For example, you might have assigned one port for telephone and Group 3 fax and another port for multiple purposes. If you have problems when connected to the fax/phone port of your ISDN converter, try using the port designated for multiple purposes; it might be labeled "multi-combi" or something similar.
| | |---|
NOTE: Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is set to "on" by default. The call waiting tone interferes with any fax transmission, and you cannot send or receive faxes with the printer. Refer to the documentation that came with your PBX phone system for instructions on how to turn off the call-waiting tone.
If you encounter problems setting up the printer with optional equipment, contact your local service provider or vendor for further assistance.
###### Case D: Fax with a distinctive ring service on the same line
If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service (through your telephone company) that allows you to have multiple phone numbers on one phone line, each with a different ring pattern, set up the printer as described in this section.
###### Back view of the printer

| | |---|
NOTE: By default, the printer is set to answer all ring patterns. If you do not set the Distinctive Ring to match the ring pattern assigned to your fax number, the printer might answer both voice calls and fax calls or it might not answer at all.
TIP: You can also use the Ring Pattern Detection feature in the printer’s control panel to set distinctive ring. With this feature, the printer recognizes and records the ring pattern of an incoming call and, based on this call, automatically determines the distinctive ring pattern assigned by your telephone company to fax calls. For more information, see Change the answer ring pattern for distinctive ring.
If you encounter problems setting up the printer with optional equipment, contact your local service provider or vendor for further assistance.
###### Case E: Shared voice/fax line
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you have no other office equipment (or voice mail) on this phone line, set up the printer as described in this section.

If the printer is connected to a network, the test page displays details about the network settings.
######### To print the wireless test page
Guidelines for ensuring wireless network security The following information can help you keep your wireless network and wireless printer secure from unauthorized use. For more information, visit www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting. This section contains the following topics:
Overview of security settings To help improve the security of the wireless network and prevent unauthorized access, the printer supports many common types of network authentication, including WEP, WPA, and WPA2.
Add hardware addresses to a wireless router (MAC filtering) MAC filtering is a security feature in which a wireless router or wireless access point is configured with a list of hardware addresses (also called "MAC addresses") of devices that are allowed to gain access to the network through the router.
If the router filters hardware addresses, then the printer's hardware address must be added to the router’s list of accepted hardware addresses. If the router does not have the hardware address of a printer attempting to access the network, the router denies the printer access to the network.
CAUTION: This method is not recommended, however, because your MAC addresses can easily be read and falsified by unwanted users outside your network.
######### To add hardware addresses to a wireless router or wireless access point
| | |---|
NOTE: The printer maintains separate hardware addresses for the Ethernet connection and for wireless connection. Both hardware addresses are listed on the printer’s network configuration page.
| |
|---|
NOTE: For more information about using the configuration utility, see the documentation provided with the router or wireless access point.
Other wireless security guidelines To keep the wireless network secure, follow these guidelines:
###### Guidelines for reducing interference on a wireless network
The following tips will help reduce the chances for interference in a wireless network:
Change basic network settings The control panel options enable you to set up and manage a wireless connection and to perform a variety of network management tasks. This includes viewing the network settings, restoring the network defaults, turning the wireless radio on and off, and changing the network settings. This section contains the following topics:
View and print network settings You can display a summary of the network settings on the printer control panel or the HP software that came with the printer. You can print a more detailed network configuration page, which lists all of the important network settings such as the IP address, link speed, DNS, and mDNS. For more information, see Understand the network configuration page.
Turn the wireless radio on and off The wireless radio is on by default, as indicated by the blue light on the front of the printer. In order to stay connected to a wireless network, the radio must stay on. However, if your printer is connected to a wired network or you have a USB connection, the radio is not used. In this case you might want to turn the radio off.
#### Change advanced network settings
CAUTION: Network settings are provided for your convenience. However, unless you are an advanced user, you should not change some of these settings (such as the link speed, IP settings, default gateway, and firewall settings).
This section contains the following topics:
Set link speed You can change the speed at which data is transmitted over the network. The default is Automatic.
###### View IP settings
To view the IP address of the printer:
Change IP settings The default IP setting for the IP settings is Automatic, which sets the IP settings automatically. However, if you are an advanced user, you might want to manually change settings such as the IP address, subnet mask, or the default gateway.
CAUTION: Be careful when manually assigning an IP address. If you enter an invalid IP address during the installation, your network components cannot connect with the printer.
###### Reset network settings
To reset the administrator password and network settings
| | |---|
NOTE: Print the network configuration page and verify that the network settings have been reset. For more information, see Understand the network configuration page.
Change advanced network settings 201
Uninstall and reinstall the HP software If your installation is incomplete, or if you connected the USB cable to the computer before prompted by the HP software installation screen, you might need to uninstall and then reinstall the HP software that came with the printer.
