Set up HP Digital Fax

With HP Digital Fax, the printer automatically receives faxes and saves them directly to a network

folder (Fax to Network Folder) or forwards them as email attachments (Fax to Email).

NOTE: You can configure HP Digital Fax to use either Fax to Network Folder or to use Fax to Email.

You cannot use both at the same time.

Received faxes are saved as TIFF (Tagged Image File Format) or PDF files.

CAUTION: HP Digital Fax is available for receiving black-and-white faxes only. Color faxes are

printed instead of being saved.
