m1522nf mfp fax not showing on the HP device manager

Use "hp-sendfax" command in the terminal.
If it doesn't work type hp-check on the terminal and paste the ouput here.

By using the hp-sendfax i got the following output:

Note: hp-check can be run in three modes:
1. Compile-time check mode (-c or --compile): Use this mode before compiling the
HPLIP supplied tarball (.tar.gz or .run) to determine if the proper dependencies
are installed to successfully compile HPLIP.
2. Run-time check mode (-r or --run): Use this mode to determine if a distro
supplied package (.deb, .rpm, etc) or an already built HPLIP supplied tarball
has the proper dependencies installed to successfully run.
3. Both compile- and run-time check mode (-b or --both) (Default): This mode
will check both of the above cases (both compile- and run-time dependencies).

As of now we don't support fax for this printer. we will let you know about support in future

What?

I own on of this printer and I have been able to use the fax from the PC from years. But hp-setup no does not detect the fax. It seems that fax support for this printer has been "dropped". Please, could you clarify that?

Try setting fax-type = 4 in /usr/share/hplip/data/models.dat file in the section [hp_laserjet_m1522nf_mfp] and try running command hp-setup to setup the fax queue and check if this option is working for you.

Yes, it works now. The related bug has been solved.

Thanks for your prompt response.
