Your PaperJet 300 has three reception modes for  
receiving faxes and telephone calls.  
If a voice caller wants to send a fax.  
If the caller wants to send a fax after your

replace the handset.  
To set reception mode

handset. The display shows RECEIVING.  
Mode  
Press Mode to display the current setting.  
Repeated presses will switch between the  
options MANUAL RECEIVE, AUTO RECEIVE  
and WITH ANS MACHINE. The mode  
displayed is the one that is set.  
With answer machine  
Set this mode when you connect an answering  
machine to your PaperJet 300. Your answering  
machine will automatically take voice messages and  
PaperJet 300 will take faxes.  
Auto receive  
Your PaperJet 300 answers each call after 5 rings  
and receives faxes automatically. If the call is a voice  
call, the phone will ring again for a further 5 rings  
(secondary ringing) and you can answer the call by  
picking up the handset. If you do not answer, the  
machine will try to receive the call as a fax. During  
secondary ringing the caller will hear a beep every  
2 seconds to reassure them that the line is active.  
When your PaperJet 300 rings it will wait for the  
answering machine to take the call. If there are fax  
tones or no incoming voice message it will  
automatically try to receive a fax. Remember, it is  
advisable to say in your outgoing message that the  
caller can send a fax after the tone.  
You can adjust the number of rings your machine  
gives. See ‘Optional Settings’, page 41.  
If the answering machine is switched off, your  
PaperJet 300 will answer the call after 7 rings. Your  
answering machine should be set to answer after  
less than 7 rings, see Connecting an answering  
machine, page 30.  
If you are using your PaperJet 300 as a fax machine  
only, we recommend that you switch the second set  
of rings off. See ‘Optional Settings’, page 41.  
Receiving faxes into the memory  
If you accidentally answer a fax call.  
If you run out of paper or the ink cartridge is empty,  
your PaperJet 300 will automatically store incoming  
faxes into the memory. The memory can store up to  
20 pages of the standard letter, see page 60.  
If you pick up the handset and you hear fax tones,  
simply press the Start button, replace the handset and  
the fax will be received.

This happens if the fax is too large for the  
PaperJet 300 to handle. Pages received  
before the memory became full will be  
printed but, you will need to ask the sender  
to re-fax the pages you have not received.  
Very detailed pages or photos may need to  
be sent singly.  
Power failure while a fax is stored in the  
memory:  
If the power fails and a document is stored

Power Save mode  
To reduce the printing area  
The power save feature reduces power consumption  
from 6W to 2W while your PaperJet 300 is lying idle.  
If someone is trying to send you a fax that  
is longer than the paper you are printing on,  
your PaperJet 300 will try to receive it over  
2 pages. You can reduce the printing area in  
order to compress the fax onto a single page.  
Power save is switched off when you receive your  
machine.  
You can switch power save on and off by changing  
the feature setting 13, see list on page 42. The power  
save setting will switch on about 5 minutes after the  
last button has been pressed or the last call was  
received. The display shows POWER SAVE.  
All faxes are reduced. Your PaperJet 300  
has been originally set to 90% of the original  
size, but incoming faxes can be switched  
between 90%, 84% or 70%. You must re-set  
the reduction again to change it back.  
Power save will automatically switch off again, when  
a button is pressed, the handset is lifted or a new  
call is received.

Wiping the print nozzles and  
contacts  
Using a clean damp area of the cloth, gently  
wipe the entire gold covered area, on the  
back of the cartridge, from one side to the  
other, as shown.  
If the print quality does not improve after purging  
the nozzles, the contacts may be dirty or there may  
be dried ink on the nozzles.

Remove the print cartridge from the  
machine, see "To replace an empty ink  
cartridge" on page 51.  
Dampen a clean cloth with water.  
To dissolve any dried ink, hold a damp  
cloth against the nozzles for about 3  
seconds and wipe gently. To avoid mixing  
colours, wipe from one side to the other,  
in one direction as shown.  
Gently wipe dry.  
Ensure cartridge is dry before replacing in  
the machine.  
Allow the nozzles to dry.
