I have a HP 920 fax. It no longer connects to the phone line. It shows "Off hook" message when trying to start a transmission. Appreciate any suggestions of what the fix could be.

Welcome to HP Forums, this is a great place to get support, find answers and tips.
Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you.
I understand that you are unable to send a fax from your HP 920 fax machine as you get an error message "Phone Off Hook" on the front panel.
This issue could occur if a phone connected to the HP fax (or the same phone line) is using the same phone line as the fax, or a fax handset has been lifted.
Let's go through a few steps to resolve this issue.
And here's the step by step guide for you in the link: Troubleshooting Phone Off Hook Front Panel Messages
Let us know if it is a dedicated phone line for fax or is it a shared phone line with an answering machine.
Let me know how this works.
You have a good day ahead.
