I need to disable to fax function on my HP OJet 4500

Since 8.1, I've had to re-install the device and all it wants to do is fax. 
I've deleted and re-installed upteen times and it just reloads itself and sets itself as my default printer again.
I don't want to fax.  I seriously need to print. 
Please help fast.
This question was solved.

Hello BuddyBeau,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
The HP Print and Scan Doctor has the ability to fix default printer issues, try running that and see if it fixes the problem with the Officejet 4500.
If it does not help clear up the problem, open Devices and Printers, right click on the fax driver and remove / uninstall it. Once gone, you should be able to then right click the printer and then set it as the default.
If either of those two solutions fail to clear up the default printer settings, let me know the results when you tried both steps and I will look more into this for you.
Cheers,
JERENDS

  • I disabled the fax function on hp 8600 and now want it back.

    I went to fax something and the message says fax disabled see administrator.  I have reinstalled the printer using the CD and the message still comes up.  I cannot even print a test page because all features having to do with the fax says it is disabled.

    Welcome to the forums @Russo1 ,
    I noticed your post about the issues you are having with your Officejet 8600 printer, and I wanted to write you back with a suggestion of mine.
    I would suggest restoring the printer back to factory defaults, which will yes indeed delete the majority of information you have programmed, such as fax contacts and a network connection, if you have the printer on a network. However, this may help the printer get out of the state it's in, and allow you to make changes again, such as run the fax setup and print test pages.
    On the printer, select Setup, Tools, Restore Factory Defaults, Yes, Restart the printer afterwards.
    I hope this helps!
    If the issues continue, give us a call to talk about your printer options with HP!

  • Hp officejet/deskjet 4625 fax function disabled after a factory reset.

    Officejet/Deskjet 4625 Fax function disabled after a factory reset.
    - HP 4625
    - Fax function disabled after a factory reset, fax function disabled on fax machine.
    Good day HP community! I have a problem on my Hp officejet/deskjet 4625 after i did a factory reset. Oh by the way my printer is on a wireless connection setup and its ip address kept on changing and became very annoying so i decided to do the factory reset. After the factory reset i visited a "teach me to how to re-setup the wireless connection for Hp officejet/deskjet 4625" i downloaded the file needed on the installation and followed the steps but I failed. Here is the LINK.
    My installation failed during the "connect the usb cable from the printer to the computer" sequence. I plugged the usb cable waited patiently but after a long 30 minutes wait nothing happened. The full feature installer of the Hp officejet/deskjet 4625(OJ4620**) didnt work for me. Luckily i have a friend that had a  basic installer of the Hp officejet/deskjet 4620(DJ4620**) sent me via e-mail. I wonder what is the difference between OJ4620 and DJ4620 installers were, but thanks to my friend the DJ4620 worked. I finished the installation and the wireless connection setup was successfull!
    Now i can print via usb cable connection, network ssid connection & tru apple products. I just have one problem. My printer's fax function was disabled. I believe that the OJ4620 had an issue on win7 64bit OS, i also believe that the DJ4620 isnt capable on installing the fax function because it was only a basic installer. 
    I tried to search in the internet but to no avail, I cannot find a HP 4620 fax installer either an officejet installer nor a deskjet installer.
    My machines:
    Desktop - 64bit
    Netbook - 64bit
    Macbook Pro
    Macbook Air
    Hp officejet/deskjet 4625
    I badly need help on the fax functions because my small office need it everyday. I hope someone can help me here. Thanks in advance!

    Hello theEGG.
    Thank you for your detailed response. I understand after installing printer you are unable to use your Fax features. Any HP printer full feature software package already comes with the fax features.
    Please uninstall your software. I am going to provide a HP document to help you: Uninstall The Software. After this progress is done please move onto the next step: (This is only for your Windows computers)
    How to clean Temp Folder. In this document there is two ways to clean out the Temp folder. Please choose which option you are conformable with.
    To install the software, please use the:Printer Install Wizard. Make sure you leave the USB cord out of the computer until it props you to insert the USB cord.
    If you have any other questions please let me know.

  • Is it possible to disable Export connections functionality (Connections view) in SQL developer?

    Hi,
    because of some security reasons, there is a need to disable export connections functionality in SQL developer.
    Is it possible to do this somehow?
    Many thanks,
    Dejan

    Not that I know of.
    Even if we did, they are still stored in a file that most of your users would be able to access.
    You can however disable the ability to save passwords.
    And exporting connections now do not include passwords by default, although you can include them if you supply an additional password.

  • Disable most bluetooth functions

    I need to disable all bluetooth functionality other than Human Interface Devices like keyboards and mice/trackpads. Does anyone know of a way to do this? This is for enterprise security on several Macs running OSX 10.9.

    To my knowledge, you cannot selectively disable Bluetooth functions.

  • Need to disable the clearing of browsing history and what is the "about:config" function for it?

    I am working on an Group Policy Administrative template for Wetdog.exe, and it's awesome by the way. Just want to know what function to use (listed in "about:config" url) so i can turn this feature off entirely.
    I don't want my users deleting browsing history, or have any ability to view it either.
    Still, i want the browser to keep at least 30 days of history.
    This is EASILY accomplished in Internet Explorer via GPO, but not so much in Mozilla with wetdog.exe and it's admin templates. I am using Windows Server 2003 enterprise edition R2 on 2 domain controllers, and Windows XP Professional SP3 client workstations with Mozilla 3.6.3 and the latest version of Wetdog.exe and it's admin templates.
    Any help would be much appreciated!!!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == My boss decided that we need to keep browsing history locked out of our existing 700+ workstations ==

    just need to disable the "history" button, the "tools\clear recent history" button, and "tools\options\privacy tab\history"

    It can be annoying, but I think their motivation is good.  They are trying to make things better for their customers and I think they have, even though sometimes it is annoying.  I think it would be nice if they would advise us when the pages are going to be down for maintenance,  In the mean time, you could have another E mail account so you can always get access to your E mail.

  • HP OfficeJet 6310 AIO: Fax Functions

    Would someone be able to provide me with information on the HP OfficeJet 6310 AIO with respect to the fax function. What I need to know is how I may have a cover sheet to write a massage on, as well as view other faxes that I had sent. My former AIO was able to create cover pages of choice and able to view the body of faxes that had been sent.

    Hi AhShang, 
    I would be happy to help you with the fax features you are inquiring about. On the front panel of the printer in the Settings, you can navigate to Tools. In the Tools menu there is an option to Reprint Faxes in Memory. I believe though that this will reprint faxes that have been sent to you as apposed to printing faxes you sent others. 
    I do not see the option the software to create a cover letter but it may be there. I would look in the HP Solution Center to see what you can find. Alternatively, you can create a cover letter using Word or download templates online.
    Take a look at the following website I found using Google; Free Fax Cover Sheets
    Here is a sample of what you will find on that website.
    I hope this helps resolve your inquiry.

    My son is doing online homeschooling. If he is taking a quiz and accidentally hits the delete key to correct a word in his answer the page goes back and he is kicked out of the quiz. I need to disable this function in Safari to protect him from this. Please help.

    HI John,
    That would require remapping. This thread has some links available that may help.
