Essentially, you don't fix it; at this writing, HP Smart does not include regular Fax.

 

Options available on your printer available are either already displayed on your HP Smart Homepage or are listed in Personalize Tiles (and can be switched "ON" to show on the Homepage).

 

Examples

HP_Smart_W10_Start_Screen_1HP_Smart_W10_Start_Screen_1

 

HP_Smart_W10_Personalize_Tiles_1HP_Smart_W10_Personalize_Tiles_1

 

 

The only "fax" option available with HP Smart, where it is available, is the mobile fax subscription service.

Reminder:  Mobile Fax is NOT regular fax that comes free on printers that natively support the Fax function.
