Forward faxes to another number

You can set up the printer to forward your faxes to another fax number. All faxes are forwarded in

black and white, regardless of how they were originally sent.
HP recommends that you verify the number you are forwarding to is a working fax line. Send a test

fax to make sure the fax machine is able to receive your forwarded faxes.
