HP Officejet Pro 8600+ e-all-in-one printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

My HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer works flawlessly, but it has one annoying issue.  When I print out fax confirmation reports, all it shows are zeros, where the date time is supposed to be.  My computer knows what date and time it is, and my printer is wirelessly connected to the computer.  Why doesn't the printer know what date and time it is?  My computer is a DELL Inspiron 5567 Laptop, running Windows 10 Pro - 64 bit.

Betty, All of the date/time fields were indeed blank, but not anymore thanks to you.  I was looking for that menu under the fax settings, since the only time I would notice the missing date/time was on fax confirmation reports.  Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.
