Unable to fax from Mac OS X 10.6 but otherwise C7280 works fine

Dear HP,
I have a C7280 connected to our LAN via RJ45 and to a phone line using the provided cord. It works fine as a stand alone fax to send and receive faxes. However, when I try to fax from my Mac (OS 10.6.8) with the most current drivers, it doesn't connect to the telephone line and only prints a couple of garbled pages on the printer. When I run a fax test from the front panel it passes all tests. I can't think of anything else to try so I am hoping you have a solution.

Hello JohnF377, and welcome to the HP Forums.
I see you are running into fax issues.  I would like to help.
I would recommend utilizing this document on Digital Fax to Mac.
Good luck and please let me know the results of your troubleshooting steps. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

    Hi @JediTiger,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums. I see you are running into some fax issues with you HP Officejet 8600 since upgrading to the Mac Yosemite 10.10 Operating system. Please go ahead and get started below:

    • Click uninstall.

    4. Click OK to confirm the reset.

  • Faxing from mac

  • How to fax from mac?

    How to fax from Mac? I have Epson Artisan 810 All in one (Print,fax,scan and copy)

    Generally speaking all such features are now integrated in OS X's Print dialog.
    File > Print, choose your printer and select "Send Fax" from the dropdown menu:
    Fill in the fax number and click Add to add it to the destination list:
    ... then click Print and your print / fax will dial the phone and send the fax.

  • I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM using serial port. It works fine. I then send a request for 512 bytes and my "read" goes into loop condition, no bytes are delivered and system is lost

    I pull fiftyfour bytes of data from MicroProcessor's EEPROM using serial port. It works fine. I then send a request for 512 bytes and my "read" goes into loop condition, no bytes are delivered and system is lost

    Hello,
    You mention that you send a string to the microprocessor that tells it how many bytes to send. Instead of requesting 512 bytes, try reading 10 times and only requesting about 50 bytes at a time.
    If that doesn�t help, try directly communicating with your microprocessor through HyperTerminal. If you are not on a Windows system, please let me know. Also, if you are using an NI serial board instead of your computer�s serial port, let me know.
    In Windows XP, go to Start, Programs, Accessories, Communications, and select HyperTerminal.
    Enter a name for the connection and click OK.
    In the next pop-up dialog, choose the COM port you are using to communicate with your device and click OK.
    In the final pop
    -up dialog, set the communication settings for communicating with your device.
    Type the same commands you sent through LabVIEW and observe if you can receive the first 54 bytes you mention. Also observe if data is returned from your 512 byte request or if HyperTerminal just waits.
    If you do not receive the 512 byte request through HyperTerminal, your microprocessor is unable to communicate with your computer at a low level. LabVIEW uses the same Windows DLLs as HyperTerminal for serial communication. Double check the instrument user manual for any additional information that may be necessary to communicate.
    Please let me know the results from the above test in HyperTerminal. We can then proceed from there.

    Hey kbert73
    I would do a transfer of purchases from the phone and not sync. If you sync then it will want to start over and sync music that is on the MacBook Pro. If you want to transfer the music, check out the article below that will give you multiple options on how to move. I have also provided on how to sync with multiple computers.

    When I upgraded my iMac to Lion I can no longer connect the iPad 2 to WiFi.  It gives me a message unable to search for WiFi.  Before the upgrade to Lion it worked fine.  What gives?

    Could there be a setting I need to adjust in the iPad2?  When I try to turn on WiFi and enter the name of the WiFi that I have established, including the security type and the password, I get the message "Could not scan for wireless networks."  Is there a setting in iCloud or other location that needs to be changed?

  • The enter key is not working in firefox but it has working fine in chrome and IE so please help me to rid out from this.

    The enter key is not working in firefox but it has working fine in chrome and IE so please help me to rid out from this.

    Hello gokulaan, '''try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

  • I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    I copied several MOV files to a CD. When I play them from the CD the video is fine but the audio works fine for the first few seconds then stops (using Qicktime Player 7.7.1.  Everything works fine if I use VLC Media Player. Does anyone have any idea why?

    My purpose for copying to a CD or DVD is so that I can make copies and send to friends and relatives. What is the best way to get these files on a CD/DVD with the right codecs?
    The easiest thing to do is to simply tell your friends and relatives to copy the files to their local hard drive before playing them. Your basic problem is that data discs have a limited real time transfer rate. Since you say VLC plays the files fine, I might suspect its player is likely buffering the data while the QT 7 Player is not.
    Data discs made for playback directly from the CD or DVD are normally encoded using MPEG-4/AVC (H.264) video with AAC audio. This is a modern codec which has specific settings to re-package the data (i.e., must be encoded using the multipass option and then select the "optimize for CD/DVD" option).
