3 Set up the fax (optional)

This chapter provides instructions for setting up the fax in
a number of different setup configurations.

• Using a dedicated phone line

• Using a shared phone line

• Managing and configuring the fax

• Configuring the answer mode

• Configuring rings to answer

• Changing the answer ring pattern for distinctive
ringing

• Setting the fax header

• Testing the fax setup

For more information about fax features, see the
onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

NOTE: Fax is supported on some models only.

CAUTION: If you do not use the supplied cord to

connect from the telephone wall jack to your device,
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.
If the supplied phone cord is too short, see the onscreen
user guide on the Starter CD for information.

If you do not see your country/region listed in the
following sections, you probably have a serial-type
phone system. If you are unsure which kind of telephone
system you have (serial or parallel), check with your
telephone company.

Countries/regions with parallel­type phone systems

In a parallel-type phone system, you are able to connect
shared telephone equipment to the phone line by using
the “2-EXT” port on the back of the device.

Argentina Australia Brazil
Canada Chile China
Colombia Greece India
Indonesia Ireland Japan
Korea Latin America Malaysia
Mexico Philippines Poland
Portugal Russia Saudi Arabia
Singapore Spain Taiwan
Thailand USA Venezuela
Vietnam

NOTE: If you have a parallel-type phone system,
HP recommends you use the 2-wire phone cord supplied
with the device to connect it to the telephone wall jack.

English

Parallel- vs. serial-type phone systems

Before you begin setting up the device for faxing,
determine which kind of phone system your country/
region uses.

NOTE: The instructions for fax setup differ depending
on whether you have a serial- or parallel-type phone
system.

Countries/regions with serial-type
phone systems

In a serial-type phone system, the connector type on
your shared telephone equipment (modems, phones,
and answering machines) does not allow a physical
connection to the “2-EXT” port on the device. Instead,
all equipment must be connected at the telephone wall
jack.

NOTE: In some countries/regions that use serial-type
phone systems, the phone cord that came with the
device might have an additional wall plug attached to
it. This enables you to connect other telecom devices to
the wall jack where you plug in the device.

Parallel- vs. serial-type phone systems 9

For information on setting up the device for faxing using
a serial-type phone system, see the Fax Configuration
Web site for your country/region.

1. Unplug any telephone devices from the phone jack

where you are connecting the device.

2. Connect the phone cord that came with the device

between the 1-LINE port on the device and the
phone jack.

1-LINE

3. If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service, change

the Answer Ring Pattern setting to the pattern that
has been assigned to your fax number by the
telephone company, for example, double rings or
triple rings.

For information on changing this setting, see the
onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

Dedicated phone line

Use this section if you plan on using the following type
of phone line for the fax:

• Dedicated phone line (no other devices, such as

a phone or answering machine, share the line).

• Dedicated phone line without devices sharing the

line but with a subscription to a distinctive ring
service.

• Private Branch Exchange (PBX) or an Integrated

Services Digital Network (ISDN) line. For more
information about PBX and ISDN lines, see the
onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

NOTE: You cannot receive faxes automatically if you
have a voice mail service at the same phone number
you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually;
this means you must be available to respond in person
to incoming fax calls. If you want to receive faxes
automatically instead, contact your telephone company
to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain
a separate phone line for faxing.

Set up the device to answer incoming calls manually.
Press the Auto Answer button until the light is off.

NOTE: Your device is factory-set to answer all ring
patterns. If you do not set the correct ring pattern
assigned to your fax number by the telephone company,
your device might answer both voice calls and fax calls,
or it might not answer at all.

Shared phone line

If the fax is going to share the phone line with other
devices, such as a phone, answering machine,
computer/computer modem, or caller ID box, or if you
have voicemail service included with your line, you must
follow these instructions to determine how to set up your
fax.

1. Follow the steps for the “Dedicated phone line” on

page 10.

2. Plug additional devices into the 2-EXT port on the

back of the device.

2-EX T

3. Use the following tables to determine the rest of your

fax configuration.

Set up the fax (optional)10

Use the fax setup tables

Use the fax setup tables to assist you in setting up the fax function on your device. To use the tables, follow these
steps:

 Determine how you will use the phone line that your fax machine will be using:

• Voice and Fax (see Table 3-1) • Voice, Fax, and Internet (dial-up) (see Table 3-3)

• Fax and Internet (see Table 3-2) • Voice, Fax, and Internet (DSL) (see Table 3-4)

Once you determine how you want to use the phone line, follow these steps:

 In the first row, determine what other devices will

share the phone line with the all-in-one (phone,
computer, answering machine).

 In the next rows, determine if the phone line has any

special services (voicemail or distinctive ring), and, if the
phone line will be used with a computer, determine if
you have a dial-up or DSL modem.

 The next row provides an example of what your fax

setup might look like in terms of how to connect various
devices to the all-in-one.

 In the last row of the table are numbers that

correspond to the Configuration guideline table on
page 13. Use the Configuration guideline table to help
you set up your all-in-one so that it operates the most
effectively based on the way your all-in-one is set up.

NOTE: You must follow the numbers as they appear in
the last row of each fax setup table. Performing the steps
out of sequence may result in fax setup problems.

ports on your computer. You also need additional phone cords (at least three if your computer has only
one phone port and at least two if your computer has two phone ports).

Before you begin, check your computer to see if it has one or two phone ports:

Computer with one phone port

If your computer has only one phone port, you will need to purchase a parallel splitter (also called a
coupler). A parallel splitter has one RJ-11 port on the front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use
a two-line phone splitter, a serial splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two RJ-11 ports on the front and
a plug on the back. You can purchase a parallel splitter from an electronics store that carries phone
accessories.

1. Connect one end of the phone cord that came with the device to the wall jack and the other end to

the 1-LINE port on the device.

2. Connect one end of a second phone cord to the 2-EXT port on the device and the other end to the

front of the parallel splitter (the end with the single phone port).

3. Connect one end of a third phone cord to the back of the parallel splitter (the end with two phone

ports) and the other end to the computer.

4. Connect one end of a fourth phone cord to the last open port on the parallel splitter and the other

end to a telephone or answering machine. If you are connecting both a telephone and answering
machine, connect the fourth phone cord to the answering machine, and then use a fifth phone cord
to connect the answering machine to the telephone.

NOTE: If you do not connect your answering machine in this way, fax tones from a sending fax
machine might be recorded on your answering machine, and you might not be able to receive
faxes with your device.

Computer with two phone ports

If your computer has two phone ports, complete the following steps to connect the device to the
computer:

1. Connect one end of the phone cord that came with the device to the wall jack and the other end to

the 1-LINE port on the device.

2. Connect one end of a second phone cord to the 2-EXT port on the device and the other end to the

IN port on the computer.

3. Connect one end of a third phone cord to the OUT port on the computer and the other end to a

telephone or answering machine. If you are connecting both a telephone and answering machine,
connect the third phone cord to the answering machine, and then connect the answering machine
to the telephone.

NOTE: If you do not connect your answering machine in this way, fax tones from a sending fax
machine might be recorded on your answering machine, and you might not be able to receive
faxes with your device.

4 Set up Direct Digital Filing for

scanning (optional)

The Direct Digital Filing feature allows you to scan
documents directly to multiple shared folders (up to 10)
on your network. With Direct Digital Filing, you do not
need any scanning software. Also, you do not need to
scan files from your computer and then transfer them to
the designated network folder.

Required information

To set up Direct Digital Filing, you need the following
information:

• The IP address assigned to the all-in-one.

NOTE: The Direct Digital Filing feature is available

with HP Officejet L7600/L7700 all-in-one models that
are connected directly to the network either through a
wireless connection or with an Ethernet cable.

NOTE: Direct Digital Filing does not support Windows
Active Directory.

Direct Digital Filing...
in action!

Recently, a small graphic design firm started to manage
their invoices, contracts, and expense reports
electronically using Direct Digital Filing. Now, instead of
filing invoices and other documents, the office manager
uses the all-in-one to create an electronic copy that is
automatically stored on a computer on the office
network.

When you press the Digital Filing button on the all-in­one control panel for the first time, the IP address is
listed at the end of the instructions that appear on
the display.

• Appropriate privileges on the network.

You must be able to create a folder and change the
access permissions for the folder.

• The name of the computer where the folder is

located.

Setting it up…

The office manager asked one of the office's IT-savvy
employees to set up Direct Digital Filing.

First, the IT-savvy employee
created three separate
folders (named "Invoices",
"Contracts", and "Expense
Reports") on the computer
that would be used to store
the documents.

Then, he changed the
access permissions on
these folders so that the all­in-one could save the files
to the appropriate
directories.

Set up Direct Digital Filing for scanning (optional)16

For information about finding the computer name,
see the documentation for your operating system.

Make sure the folder preferences provide read and
write access.

• The network address for the folder.

Network addresses are usually written in this format:
\\mypc\sharedfolder

• A username and password for the network.

For example, the Windows NT username and
password used to log onto the network.

Step 1: Create and share a folder on the network

NOTE: To use Direct Digital Filing, the folder you are
using must already exist on a computer connected to the
network. You cannot create a folder from the all-in-one
control panel.

1. Create a folder on a computer connected to the

network.

2. Share the folder.

For more information about creating folders on the
network and setting folder preferences, see the
documentation for your operating system.

Step 2: Set up a shortcut to the folder on the network

Links between the all-in-one and the network folder are
called “Direct Digital Filing Speed-dials”. You create and
manage these speed-dials using the embedded Web
server (EWS) for the all-in-one.

NOTE: For more information about using the EWS,
see “Embedded Web server” on page 28 or the
onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

1. Open a supported Web browser (such as Microsoft

Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, Mozilla Firefox,
or Safari) on your computer.

English

Finally, he used the
embedded Web server
(EWS) to set up the
shortcuts (called "speed­dials") for each of these
folders

Trying it out…

After the IT-savvy employee finished setting up Direct
Digital Filing, the office manager decided to create an
electronic copy of an invoice.

First, she loaded the
document in the all-in­one, just like she would if
she were making a copy.

Then, she pressed the
Digital Filing button on
the all-in-one control
panel, and the speed­dials that the IT-savvy
employee had set up in
the EWS appeared on
the display.

Finally, she selected the
"Invoices" option and
pressed the Scan button.

The all-in-one scanned
the document and then
transmitted it directly to
the invoices folder on the
computer.

Step 1: Create and share a folder on the network 17

2. Type the IP address that has been assigned to the all-

in-one. (For more information, see “Required
information”.)

Step 3: Test and use Direct

For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123,

the Starter CD.

Required information

Before installing the device software, you might need to
find out the settings of your network. Obtain the
information from your system administrators,
or complete the following tasks:

• Obtain the network name (SSID) and communication
mode (infrastructure or ad hoc) from the
configuration utility for the network’s wireless access
point (WAP) or the computer’s network card.

• Find out the type of encryption your network uses,
such as Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) or Wi-Fi
Protected Access (WPA).

• Find out the security password or encryption key of
the wireless device.

®

Understanding 802.11 wireless network settings

Network name (SSID)

By default, the device looks for the wireless network
name or Service Set Identifier (SSID) named “hpsetup”.
Your network may have a different SSID.

Communication mode

There are two communication mode options:

Ad hoc: On an ad hoc network, the device is set to ad
hoc communication mode, and communicates directly
with other wireless devices without the use of a wireless
access point (WAP):

All devices on the ad hoc network must:

• Be 802.11 compatible

• Have ad hoc as the communication mode

• Have the same network name (SSID)

• Be on the same subnet and same channel

• Have the same 802.11 security settings

Infrastructure (recommended): On an infrastructure

network, the device is set to infrastructure
communication mode, and communicates with other
devices on the network, whether the devices are wired
or wireless, through a WAP. WAPs commonly act as
routers or gateways on small networks.

Security Settings

English

For the available settings for the device, see the
Network configuration page under “Understanding the
configuration page” in the onscreen user guide on the
Starter CD.

• WPA increases the level of over-the-air data

protection and access control on existing and future
Wi-Fi networks. It addresses all known weaknesses
of WEP, the original native security mechanism in the

802.11 standard.

• WPA2 is the second generation of WPA security;

providing enterprise and consumer Wi-Fi users with
a high level of assurance that only authorized users
can access their wireless networks.

Data encryption:

• Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) provides security by

encrypting data sent over radio waves from one
wireless device to another wireless device. Devices
on a WEP-enabled network use WEP keys to encode
data. If your network uses WEP, you must know the
WEP key(s) it uses.

• WPA uses the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP)

for encryption and employs 802.1X authentication
with one of the standard Extensible Authentication
Protocol (EAP) types available today.

• WPA2 provides a new, encryption scheme,

the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is
defined in counter cipher-block chaining mode
(CCM) and supports the Independent Basic Service
Set (IBSS) to enable security between client
workstations operating in ad hoc mode.

support Windows Active Directory.

5. Close the device’s embedded Web server, and then

disconnect the network cable from the device.

6. Uninstall the device software completely, and then

reinstall the software.

Add hardware addresses to
a wireless access point (WAP)

MAC filtering is a security feature in which a wireless
access point (WAP) is configured with a list of MAC
addresses (also called “hardware addresses”) of devices
that are allowed to gain access to the network through
the WAP. If the WAP does not have the hardware
address of a device attempting to access the network,
the WAP denies the device access to the network. If the
WAP filters MAC addresses, then the device’s MAC
address must be added to the WAP’s list of accepted
MAC addresses.

1. Print the Network configuration page. See “To print

the Network configuration page” on page 28.

Troubleshooting24

The device is not set up correctly on the
network

Make sure that the device is set up properly and
connected to the network. PING the device and make
sure that it is responding.

The network folder has not been set up
correctly

• Make sure the folder is created on the server.
For more information, see the documentation
available for your operating system.

• Make sure the folder name uses only the letters
A through Z (uppercase or lowercase) and the
numbers 1 through 9.

• Some common punctuation marks are also
supported. However, do not use accented or special
characters in the folder name.

• Make sure the folder has been shared and that users
can both read and write to the folder. For more

information, see the documentation available for
your operating system.

• Make sure the folder name is entered in the correct

format in the embedded Web server (EWS) and that
the username and password are entered correctly.
For more information, see the information in the
EWS.

The disk is full

Make sure the server containing the folder has enough
disk space available.

The device cannot create a unique filename
using the assigned prefix and suffix

The device can create up to 9,999 files using the same
prefix and suffix. If you have scanned many files to a
folder, change the prefix.

The filename prefix has not been set up
correctly

Make sure the folder name and filename prefix uses
only the letters A through Z, uppercase or lowercase;
the numbers 1 through 9. Some common punctuation
marks are also supported. However, do not use
accented or special characters in the folder name.
If unsupported characters are used in filename prefixes,
they will not appear correctly when the file is created.

The server name cannot be resolved

Sending to network folder might fail if the server name
provided during setup cannot be resolved to specific IP
addresses. When setting up the Direct Digital Filing
feature, be sure to do the following:

• Try to use fully qualified DNS names.

• Make sure the DNS server is set up correctly on the

device.

TIP: If you have recently changed the DNS settings,
turn off and then turn on the all-in-one.

Solving Direct Digital Filing problems (optional) 25

Solving fax problems (optional)

If you ran a fax test and the test failed, see the test report for possible solutions. For more detailed information, see
the onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.

The device is having problems
sending and receiving faxes

Make sure you use the phone cord that came with the device.

Other equipment that uses the same phone line as the device might be in use. Make sure
extension phones (phones on the same phone line, but not connected to the device) or other
equipment is not in use or off the hook. For example, you cannot use the device for faxing if an
extension phone is off the hook or if you are using a computer dial-up modem to send e-mail or
access the Internet.

If you are using a phone splitter, the splitter could cause faxing problems. Try connecting the
device directly to the telephone wall jack.

Make sure that one end of the phone cord is connected to the telephone wall jack, while the
other end to port labeled “1-LINE” on the back of the device.

Try connecting a working phone directly to the telephone wall jack and check for a dial tone –­if you do not hear a dial tone, please contact your telephone company to check the line.

Make sure you connect the device to an analog phone line, or you cannot send or receive faxes.
To check if your phone line is digital, connect a regular analog phone to the line and listen for a
dial tone. If you do not hear a normal-sounding dial tone, it might be a phone line set up for
digital phones. Connect the device to an analog phone line and try sending or receiving a fax.

The phone line connection might be noisy. Phone lines with poor sound quality (noise) can cause
faxing problems. Check the sound quality of the phone line by plugging a phone into the
telephone wall jack and listening for static or other noise. If you hear noise, turn Error Correction
Mode (ECM) off and try faxing again.

If you are using a digital subscriber line (DSL) service, make sure that you have a DSL filter
connected. Without the filter, you cannot fax successfully.

If you are using either a private branch exchange (PBX) or an integrated services digital network
(ISDN) converter/terminal adapter, make sure the device is connected to the correct port and the
terminal adapter is set to the correct switch type for your country/region.
