4 Connect the phone cord to the port labelled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
You might need to connect the phone cord to your country/region adapter.
5 Computer with modem
6 Answering machine
7 Telephone (optional)
To set up the printer on the same phone line as a computer with two phone ports
1. Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the printer.
2. Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your computer dial-up modem) to
a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone wall jack and plug it into the port labeled
2-EXT on the back of the printer.
3. Unplug your answering machine from the telephone wall jack, and connect it to the port labeled "OUT"
on the back of the computer (the computer dial-up modem).
4. Connect one end of the phone cord to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port
labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
NOTE: You might need to connect the phone cord to your country/region adapter.
5. (Optional) If your answering machine does not have a built-in phone, for convenience you might want to
connect a phone to the back of your answering machine at the "OUT" port.
NOTE: If your answering machine does not let you connect an external phone, you can purchase and
use a parallel splitter (also known as a coupler) to connect both the answering machine and telephone to
the printer. You can use standard phone cords for these connections.
6. If your modem software is set to receive faxes to your computer automatically, turn o that setting.
NOTE: If you do not turn o the automatic fax reception setting in your modem software, the printer
cannot receive faxes.
7. Turn on the Auto Answer setting.
8. Set your answering machine to answer after a low number of rings.
9. Change the Rings to Answer setting on the printer to the maximum number of rings supported by the
product. (The maximum number of rings varies by country/region.)
10. Run a fax test.
When the phone rings, your answering machine answers after the number of rings you have set, and then
plays your recorded greeting. The printer monitors the call during this time, "listening" for fax tones. If
incoming fax tones are detected, the printer emits fax reception tones and receives the fax; if there are no fax
tones, the printer stops monitoring the line and your answering machine can record a voice message.
If you encounter problems setting up the printer with optional equipment, contact your local service provider
or vendor for further assistance.
