Streaky prints. Run the Clean Printhead utility from HP printer software — one or two cycles usually fixes minor clogs.
Fax setup issues. The OfficeJet 4632 is a 4-in-1 (print/scan/copy/fax). Confirm an RJ-11 phone line is connected to the LINE port and the fax country/region is set correctly.
ADF feeding crooked. Re-square the document guides snugly against the originals and don't exceed 35 sheets in the ADF.
