@lmassa583, Welcome to HP Support Community,

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

The HP Envy 7645, like many other HP printers, typically requires a traditional landline to send and receive faxes. However, if you plan to disconnect your landline, there are alternative methods you can consider to send faxes:

Mobile Faxing through the HP Smart App:

• You can use the HP Smart app, which offers a Mobile Fax feature that allows you to send documents via fax over the internet. This doesn't require your printer to be connected to a phone line.
• Download and set up the HP Smart app on your mobile device via 123.hp.com.
• Use the Mobile Fax feature in the app to send faxes directly from your mobile device.

Online Fax Services:

• There are numerous online fax service providers that allow you to send and receive faxes through email or a web platform.
• These services typically require a subscription or pay-per-fax fee but eliminate the need for a phone line.

Connecting to VoIP or Digital Services:

• While traditional faxing requires a standard phone line, some users have had success using VoIP services with the appropriate setup and equipment.
• It's important to note that the quality and reliability might vary compared to a traditional landline.
