Setting up Faxing on my OF3830

[KitKat1644]

I am a little technologically challenged, so looking for someone with patience to deal with someone like me.

I purchase this printer/fax/scanner over a year ago and very disappointed that it does not do what I thought it would do - or it seems that way.

I need to fax some important paperwork and really trying to figure out how this works.  I do not have a landline, but I do have a mobile phone that can take pictures of what I need to send, unless there is a way I can scan the documents to my computer and send the document by fax.  So, I am lost, first of all, to my options as follows:

Can I send a fax from my computer, which is hardwired to my OJ3830 without a landline? or

Do I have to send a fax from my mobile phone?

Unfortunately, your answer will result in next steps questions.

Thanks for any information anyone can share.

Hi @KitKat1644,

I'd like to help!

You will not be able to use the fax feature without a landline connection.

Alternatively, you can use the mobile e fax option to send a fax, refer to- Send Faxes with the HP Smart App

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
