My HP 7210 will not recieve faxes, it shows error 244.

I've seen this many times before, when a customer / account gets a new fax machine, or is using a different fax machine. All the other faxes go through without a hitch, except for these. If fax machines become a couple generations apart / 10 years, they won'
t communicate sufficiently enough to make the fax hand shake and the Fax fails to go through.

Hi; Receiving to Memory Temporarily You can enable memory receiving feature temporarily. Received faxes will not be printed automatically.

1. Press [ON/OFF] to select <AUTO PRINT OFF>.
2. ??? The fax starts receiving documents in memory.
3. ??? To cancel, press [ON/OFF] again.
4. ??? When <AUTO PRINT OFF> is cancelled, received faxes will be printed automatically.

good luck

Are you connected to a VOIP line for your fax?
A VOIP line can come from a company like Vonage or your local cable co.

If so:

Unfortunatly, faxing over VOIP (Internet) is not always successful. You might want to talk to your VOIP provider if they have a solution.

If not:

Are you trying with the same fax to send and recieve? Some traditional fax machines have probles connecting to fax modems, which is what you have in an Office Jet.
Try having someone else send you a fax and try sending to another number. Otherwise, you might have a defective fax modem.

These are typical comm errors, try installing a line filter and turn the ecm mode to off and the fax speed to medium.

Hi,
Here is the answer to your question.

Error code 244 can mean any of the following things: :

1. You or the person sending the fax pressed the STOP key , causing the session to stop before completion.

2. The fax machine on the other end determined that there is an incompatibility with your machine and the one you are sending to and stopped the fax session.

To fix this you can try the following things. Try them one at a time, and if they don't work, place them back the way they where before you changed it.

• Make sure the fax machine you are sending to can accept and use polling.
• Select a slower "receive" speed.
• Enable or disable the ECM setting.

Error Code: 232

1. Can mean that a communication failure has happened between the two machines.

2. It may also mean that the user of the FAX machine you are sending to has pressed the STOP key

3. If call waiting is enabled, it may cause this error. Disable call waiting on your phone line, if you have a fax machine connected to it. The click or beep on the line that indicates you have a incoming call, can STOP a fax session.

4. Another cause of this error code is that the power was interrupted to the machine you are attempting to send a fax to.

Things you can do to solve this problem: Try them one at a time, and if they don't work, place them back the way they where before you changed it.

• Try disableing ECM. However, this may reduce the quality of your faxes.
• Ask the person you are sending the fax to to set the machine to receive at a slower speed.
• Try the fax again at a different time, incase it is a problem with the phone line.
• If you phone lines are old, or there is static on the line it may cause trouble sending a fax.If this is the case you will need to contact your local phone company or whoever is responsible for servicing your phone lines.
  

It seeme the fax no you are trying to send fax does not receive fax in higher speed or might be it is a older fax machine than the one you have.
Try reducing the fax speed on your machine and trun off ECM mode.

Press Menu / Setup> Press the right arrow key till you see advance fax setup> and press Ok> Again press the right arrow key to locate fax speed> and press Ok> and reduce fax speed to slow> Press Ok. and cancell to come back to the main screen.
To disaable ECM mode>
Press Setup .
Press the Down arrow repeatedly until Advanced Fax Setup displays.
Press OK .
Press the Down arrow until Error Correction Mode displays.
Press OK .
Press the Right arrow > until either OFF or ON displays.
Press OK .
Send another fax to verify that the ECM is enabled or disabled.

Good Luck

The error 244 results from a fax machine communicating and trying to 'Poll" your fax. (receive information you have loaded into the fax memory for all to receive) The error comes in when your fax has no information or is not set up to be polled.

Look in your menu for the "ECM" setting on the printer menu. If this error is getting persistent change the ECM setting to the opposite of what it is set now. More than likely your fax will say ECM=On, change to off.

If you have problems locating where the ECM section is, print a "settings report" or "printer menu".

Hope that helps you.

(05) Would you, please, SEND a fax from the machine that blank faxes are being received from to a different recipient on a different fax machine all together, please?

This will enable us to pin down which machine is really experiencing the issue.

Thank you

When I send a fax I have a dial tone and the fax feeds through, I hear the other end answer it says it is sending and then I get the printed page that says: "A communication error occurred during the fax transmission."

ERROR 346 The remote machine has failed to respond to a fax command from the local machine because the connection was interrupted. These errors can occur if the phone lines in the area are old or if noise is present (static on the phone line). Other reasons could be power outages and other power-related problems.
