that feature does not display in the HP Solution Center.
Tip If the HP Solution Center on your computer does not contain any icons,
an error might have occurred during the software installation. To correct this,
use the Control Panel in Windows to completely uninstall the HP Image Zone
software; then reinstall the software. For more information, see the Setup
Guide that came with your HP All-in-One.

Contents, Index, and Search tabs
The Contents, Index, and Search tabs enable you to find any topic in the HP Image
Zone Help.
●Contents
The Contents tab provides a top-down view of the topics in the Help, similar to
the table of contents in a book. This is a useful way to find all the information
provided about a single feature, such as printing photos.

●Search
The Search tab enables you to search the entire Help system for specific words,
such as "borderless print".
Tip If any of the words you are entering are fairly common (such as
"print", in the "borderless print" example), you might want to place
quotation marks around the combination of words for which you are
searching. This limits your search so that the results are more relevant to
the information you need. Instead of returning all topics that contain either
the word "borderless" or the word "print", the search will only return topics
that contain the phrase "borderless print".

After entering your search criteria, click List
Topics to view all the Help topics that contain
the words or phrases you entered. The results
are listed in a three-column table. Each row
contains the topic Title, the Location in the Help
where the topic is contained, and the Rank,
assigned based on its relevance to your search
criteria.
By default, the results are sorted by Rank, so that the topic containing the most
instances of your search criteria is at the top of the list. You can also sort the
results by the topic's Title or Location, by clicking the table heading for that
column. To view the contents of a topic, double-click that row in the results table.

phone system your country/region uses. The instructions for setting up your HP All-inOne for faxing differ depending on whether you have a serial- or parallel-type phone
system.
●If you do not see your country/region listed in the table below, you probably have
a serial-type phone system. 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 your HP All-in-One.
Instead, all equipment must be connected at the telephone wall jack.
●If your country/region is listed in the table below, you probably have a paralleltype telephone system. 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 HP All-in-One.
Note If you have a parallel-type phone system, HP recommends you use
the 2-wire phone cord supplied with your HP All-in-One to connect the
HP All-in-One to the telephone wall jack.

If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (serial or parallel), check
with your telephone company.
Choose the right 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 your HP All-in-One. This is important because you
might need to connect some of your existing office equipment directly to your HP All-

in-One, and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax
successfully.
To determine the best way to set up the HP All-in-One in your home or office, first
read through the questions in this section and record your answers. Next, refer to the
table in the following section and choose the recommended setup case based on your
answers.
Make sure to read and answer the following questions in the order they are presented.
1.Do you have a digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone
company? (DSL might be called ADSL in your country/region.)
❑
Yes, I have DSL.
❑
No.
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case B: Set up your HP All-in-One with
DSL. You do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.
2.Do you have a private branch exchange (PBX) phone system or an integrated
services digital network (ISDN) system?
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case C: Set up your HP All-in-One with
a PBX phone system or an ISDN line. You do not need to continue answering
questions.
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.
3.Do you subscribe to a distinctive ring service through your telephone company
that provides multiple phone numbers with different ring patterns?
❑
Yes, I have distinctive ring.
❑
No.
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to Case D: Fax with a distinctive ring
service on the same line. You do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered No, please continue answering questions.
Are you unsure if you have 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 phone number will have a different ring
pattern. For example, you can have single, double, and triple rings for the
different numbers. You might assign one phone number with a single ring to your
voice calls, and another phone number with double rings to your fax calls. This
allows you to tell the difference between voice and fax calls when the phone rings.
4.Do you receive voice calls at the same phone number you will use for fax calls on
your HP All-in-One?
❑
Yes, I receive voice calls.
❑
No.
Please continue answering questions.
5.Do you have a computer modem on the same phone line as your HP All-in-One?
❑
Yes, I have a computer modem.
❑
No.

programs through a dial-up connection?
–Do you send and receive e-mail messages on your computer through a dial-
up connection?
–Do you access the Internet from your computer through a dial-up connection?
Please continue answering questions.
6.Do you have an answering machine that answers voice calls at the same phone
number you will use for fax calls on your HP All-in-One?

of rings you set in the Rings to Answer setting. Then it will begin emitting fax
reception tones to the sending fax machine and receive the fax.
Case B: Set up your HP All-in-One with DSL
If you have a DSL service through your telephone company, use the instructions in
this section to connect a DSL filter between the telephone wall jack and your HP All-inOne. The DSL filter removes the digital signal that can interfere with your HP All-inOne, so the HP All-in-One can communicate properly 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 will
not be able to send and receive faxes with your HP All-in-One.

Case C: Set up your HP All-in-One 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:
●If you are using either a PBX or an ISDN converter/terminal adaptor, connect the
HP All-in-One to the port that is designated for fax and phone use. Also, make
sure that the terminal adapter is set to the correct switch type for your country/
region, if possible.
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.
●If you are using a PBX phone system, set the call waiting tone to "off".
Note Many digital PBX systems include a call-waiting tone that is set to
"on" by default. The call waiting tone will interfere with any fax
transmission, and you will not be able to send or receive faxes with your
HP All-in-One. Refer to the documentation that came with your PBX
phone system for instructions on how to turn off the call-waiting tone.
●If you are using a PBX phone system, dial the number for an outside line before
dialing the fax number.
●Make sure you use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to
your HP All-in-One. If you do not, 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 phone cord
that came with my HP All-in-One is not long enough for information on extending it.
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 your HP All-in-One as described in this section.
