    Our hp 3050 all-in-one no longer communicates with my computer and incoming faxes no longer print. The HP ToolboxFX program won't start up, either.

Make sure you check to see how many rings the machine is set to answer on. For some reason, mine came set to 5 rings. Most fax machines stop trying before that. I set mine to 2 rings and viola!

Hello,

Please make sure the machine is set for auto-receive in machine set up and make sure the phone cord is plugged into the line jack on the machine. If this machine is not on a dedicated phone line the machine (rings) should be set to pick up before the answering machine does.

HP 3050 Laser Jet: I can receive faxes but can not send fax? Help

Hello !
You need to reset fax settings first, go to the "Service" under the printers Main Menu and click on "Restore Defaults"
And then set the following settings under Fax Setup > Fax Receive Setup :

Answer Mode: Automatic
Rings to Answer: 2
Distictive Ring: All Rings

Now go to "All faxes" and change this settings:

Error correction : OFF
Fax Speed: Medium v.17

If you are using a digital line it would be a good idea installing a filter for the line

Hope this works

Distorted copy quality in the sent faxes

Make sure the rollers that pull the paper through are clean and that the glass is also clean. Clean the rollers with a cloth dampened with alcohol.
