Snow Leopard only hintIf you use the HP Color LaserJet 2840 All-In-One printer and are unable to Fax through it in Snow Leopard, here is a possible solution.

Faxing used to work fine with this device in 10.5 (Leopard), but the CUPS drivers built in to Snow Leopard for it don't support faxing correctly. So the working 10.5 drivers from HP are the place to begin.

It should be working normally again at this point.

[crarko adds: I haven't tested this one. Snow Leopard did break a few multi-function printers and I wonder if a similar fix could be found for others.]
