HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium e-All-in-One - N911n

What is the correct number to test a fax send/receive?

I am using [content removed] per HP'S site.

But it will not answer.

 

Please advise.

 

  Thanks;

Hi @Greensboro,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you are trying to test a fax send/receive with your HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium E-All-In-One (N911n), you can use a couple of methods:

 

HP Fax Test Number:

  • United States: Try faxing to 1-888-HP-FAXME (1-888-473-2963). This is HP's dedicated fax test number and should help you verify if your fax machine is working correctly.

Ensure that:

  • Your phone line is properly connected and functional.
  • The fax machine is properly set up and configured.
  • Your fax machine’s settings are correctly adjusted for your location and phone service.

If the fax test number doesn’t answer, there might be an issue with your fax line or the machine itself.

 

Refer to this document: Test fax setup with the HP Fax Test Service | HP® Support

 

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
