Cant send a fax.  Every time I try my unit goes through the process of calling but I always get a"no answer"  on the fax log.  I have gone through all of the support options that I am aware of to date and can't fix this.  Maybe it is something simple.  Can anybody help?

Fortunately, there are a number of places to check / adjust.

The  User Guide provides an entire chapter on Fax.

Category Troubleshooting > Topic Fax

Including these two helpful documents:

• Fax Error Code Descriptions
•  Resolving Fax Problems

At least in the USA, you can run the Fax Test:

Test Fax Setup with the HP Fax Test Service

Could be the phone line - ignore this if you are sure that is not the case.  That said, phone lines do fail.

If you are willing to do so - and everything else fails, drag the printer to a different location in your house / office and try a different line.

What else?

Fax requires a "cleaner" line - voice transmission can travel over some very noisy lines - Fax "not-so-much".

Phone company won't care about that unless you are paying extra for clean data line (it is not part of normal phone service).
