Make sure that the printer was fully set up before connecting the fax service.

adapter to connect other telecom devices to the same telephone jack the printer is connected to.

Step 1: Identify the phone connection type
Review the following equipment and service types to determine which setup method to use. The method used
depends on the equipment and services already installed on the phone system.
NOTE: The printer is an analog device. HP recommends using the printer on a dedicated analog telephone line.
● Dedicated phone line: The printer is the only piece of equipment or service connected to the phone line
● Voice calls: Voice and fax calls use the same phone line
● Answering machine: An answering machine answers voice calls on the same phone line used for fax calls
● Voice mail: A voice-mail subscription service uses the same phone line as the fax
● Distinctive ring service: A service from the telephone company that allows several phone numbers to be
associated with one phone line, and each number has a dierent ring pattern; the printer detects the ring
pattern assigned to it and answers the call
● Computer dial-up modem: A computer uses the phone line to connect to the Internet through a dial-up
connection
● DSL line: A digital subscriber line (DSL) service from the telephone company; this service might be called
ADSL in some countries/regions
