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. Using the phone cord supplied in the box with the printer, connect one end 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 supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your

country/region.

If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the printer, you

might not be able to fax successfully. This special phone cord is different from the phone cords

you might already have in your home or office.

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 off that

setting.

NOTE: If you do not turn off 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.
