How come my received fax fax Fax?

I can fax sent out... How to fix get fax from the direction opposite?

Hello

Looks like you are able to send faxes and not able to receive it, try the following steps and check:

Also answering these questions that would help us to provide the best solution:

1. What is the brand and model of the fax you are using?

2. what exactly happens when you try to receive a fax?

3. were there any changes made to the computer before the question?

How you can receive faxes depends on the question of if your computer is connected to a fax modem or a fax server.

If your computer is connected to a fax server, you don't need to take action to receive a fax. Instead, whenever your computer is connected to the network, new faxes are automatically sent to your Windows Fax and Scan Inbox. If you use a top or an external fax modem, you must choose how to receive faxes. Take these steps if you are using a top or an external fax modem.

  • RECEIVE FAXES AUTOMATICALLY

    I have a HP 7520 and configured in automatic response.  At this current time, I have to be in front of my 7520 push the button I agree or I do not receive the fax.  How to I receive faxes automatically without being present.  I leave my printer on 24/7.

    help and thanks

    I also ran a TEST FAX and got all passes and verified that the AUTO ANSWER is ON.

    Hello BobW664719,

    Welcome to the HP Forums! I understand that you can not receive faxes automatically using your Photosmart 7520.

    It depends on what kind of additional devices that you have on your phone line, and the settings are correct in your printer. This includes the following:

    -You have an answering machine? If so, please list the rings how this feature has.

    -Do you have a distinctive pattern of the ring?

    -Do you have an internet service on this phone line?

    Make sure that you disable the Mode of fixed error on your printer. It of in your settings Menu, Fax Menu, then advance Setup.

    Impatience on your part.

  • How to configure my Mac (OSX Lion) to receive faxes directly from my HP Officejet 6500 +.

    I have a Mac OS x Lion and a HP Officejet 6500 +. I would like to save incoming faxes directly to my computer, rather than having the 6500 to print them. I installed the driver of HP6500 on Mac: print and outgoing fax jobs. Using the configuration Print & Scan on Mac System Preferences, I can select the Officejet 6500 fax, click on "receive options" and turn on "receive faxes on this computer": I got him to answer after 1 ring and save faxes to an appropriate folder.

    The problem is that the incoming faxes even print directly on the 6500 and are not registered on the computer.

    I tried following the instructions on the manual for 6500 located here: http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c02519721.pdf but the indications on page 57 for the implementation using the HP tell me to select the "applications" icon in the toolbar and it isn't here.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

    Well, this got me half way there, thank you.

    Once you have installed the software which recommends ShlomiL, then you must enable the option Archive digital as described, which won't be available unless the device is physically connected via a USB cable. Wireless is not an option. The value "Digital Fax archiving" 'Save to Folder' and then choose a folder that is accessible in writing-world. The folder must be specific for incoming and used faxes for anything else! The 'Notification of incoming Fax' value to what you want.

    Then go into the front panel of the 6500 and disable printing fax. (There is an option buried under "base set up the fax / Fax HP Digital")

    Finally, create an automator workflow that automatically prints any picture of new place in the folder of incoming faxes created there are two steps. Set it to print on a printer laserjet cheap rather than ink-jet 6500 ridiculously expensive. (Or skip this step if you're ok with not having a copy of incoming faxes).

    You can ignore the options useful and well-designed integrated on your Apple about "receive faxes on this computer". HP only plays nice with that.

    I still hate the HP, but at least now I didn't spend $35 for a new inkjet cartridge every two weeks.

    Hi Yoon Choy Loo,

    Thanks for posting in Microsoft Communities.

    After your description, I understand that you need help setting up the windows 8 in order to send and receive faxes. Let me help you with it.

    2. The Fax Configuration Wizard starts. Click Next.
    3. On the sender information page, type the information that you want to appear on your fax cover page. You don't have to fill in all the boxes. Then, click Next.
    4. The Fax Configuration Wizard displays the Select Device page to send or receive faxes. If you want to be able to receive incoming faxes, check the box to receive.

    5. On the page of the Subscriber Identification (TSID), type the information you want in the TSID box. In general, it is a company name or your name and fax number. Click Next.

This number allows you to confirm that you send the fax to the right recipient. The CSID is usually the same as the TSID. Click Next.
    7. In the Routing Options page, choose whether you want to automatically print a fax. If you do not automatically print incoming faxes, they will be available in the Fax Console. Select Print on check box if you want each fax that you receive to be automatically printed. Then, click Next.

    9. The Fax Configuration Wizard closes and opens a Windows security alert. If you are prompted, click on unlock.

    1. Open the document, Web page, or e-mail to fax.

    5. On the recipient information page, type the name of the recipient in the box to type the recipient fax number in the fax number box. If you want to send the fax to more than one recipient, type the recipient information in the appropriate boxes, and then click Add. The recipient appears in the list and the areas are cleared so that you can enter additional information about the recipient. When you have finished adding recipients, click Next.

  • HP Laser Jet MFP M127fw Pro: How can I enable send/receive faxes "On" or "OFF"?

    I just bought and installed an HP Laser Jet MFP M127fw Pro and I am really impressed so far! However, I can't figure out how to activate the fax answer simply 'on' or 'off', which is my preferred way of handling. Any suggestions? Thank you!

    Hey @BWC3,

    Welcome to the Forum from HP Support.

    I understand that you're looking to configure the settings of your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw fax.  I would like to help.

    Here's what I recommend:

    • In the front panel of your printer, press Setup key
    • Touch Fax Setup
    • Touch basic settings
    • Tap Answer Mode
    • Here you can choose either Manual or Automatic.  'Manual' selected you are essentially turning the fax answer capacity off and "Automatic" would naturally be the setting 'on '.

    Let me know if you need help - I'm always happy to help you.

    Have a great weekend!

  • How can I return the sent and received faxes in the fax in Windows 7 program?

    Hello

    Here are the details.  I had some computer repairs and fax sent and received files were gone.    From a previous post here, I found the sent and received faxes on one stored hard drive in C:\programdata\microsoft\windowsNT.  I looked at them and they were all there.  The thing that is missing is something that can list the fax sent and received in the program so that they are.

    I tried the fax software and items sent and received were still missing.

    Thus, the data is there but not accessible from the program.

    What I am doing wrong?

  • How can I send faxes directly to the computer?

    I have an Officejet Pro 8500 a HP all-in-one.  My computer operating system is windows Vista home and the printer is connected wireless to my home network.  I want to know how to send a fax received from the printer directly to the computer without having to print on paper first.  Occasionally, my printer working ink or for any other reason, I'm not going to want to print a paper copy of a received fax.  I may still need to read the fax.  I wish I could print the faxes in my computer so I can read and print the latter if necessary. Thanks for the help. Jim

    Ah, I finally found!  It's an option under HP digital fax on the control panel of the product.  Thus, for some reason, the process with my printer was very complicated:

    1. I tried to configure digital facsimile from the control panel of the product.  He ordered me to use the software on the computer that comes with the printer; as well;

    2. I tried this software.  But the software I had installed my printer do not have an option for digital Fax, so;

    3. I went to the product HP digital fax option control panel that directed me to the built-in web server, therefore;

    4. I opened the built-in web server. But although this software has options for HP digital fax it doesn't have an option to stop printing paper, so;

    5. I had to go back to the product digital HP Fax option control panel and find the option to disable fax print it!

    Of course, at almost every step along the way that I should try to set up the printer, and then understand why it didn't work the way I wanted to and then go on the support forum, read page after page of messages, return to the printer, try various "solutions" online, then go back to forums, etc, etc. etc.  It seems that HP could do a much better job in the design of its product interface software so that customers did not have to spend as much time find answers to simple questions.
