How do I retrieved stored faxes? No, seriously. CM4540

[BWB8771]

Because of the number of junk faxes we receive, I have the CM4540 emailing ("archiving" in HP parlance) me a copy of the fax, and storing the original, rather than printing it out immediately.

When the odd fax arrives that I actually do want printed-out, I can find no way -either via web or printer control panel- to access the stored fax. If I print to the unit from a workstation and opt to store the job instead of printing, I can see that stored job, but no faxes.

Help!

Re: How do I retrieved stored faxes?

Thank you for taking the time to post that information.

I'm looking for a method to print selected faxes, and not the junk ones. Alternatively, if I were able to selectively delete the store junk faxes, I would be able to use the scheduled printing approach.

I may be wrong, but I don't know if it is capable of doing that. Maybe you should consider getting a the analog fax guide?

Re: How do I retrieved stored faxes? CM4540

Per your suggestion, I obtained and perused the "HP LaserJet Analog Fax Accessory 500 Fax Guide" and, while it does contain some pertinent information, it does not describe any means for me to accomplish my goal.

Thank you for your input.

Then it probably can't be done
