3 Set up the fax (optional)

This chapter provides instructions for setting up the fax in
a number of different setup configurations.
• Using a dedicated phone line
• Using a shared phone line
• Managing and configuring the fax
• Configuring the answer mode
• Configuring rings to answer
• Changing the answer ring pattern for distinctive
ringing
• Setting the fax header
• Testing the fax setup
For more information about fax features, see the
onscreen user guide on the Starter CD.
NOTE: Fax is supported on some models only.
CAUTION: If you do not use the supplied cord to
connect from the telephone wall jack to your device,
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.
If the supplied phone cord is too short, see the onscreen
user guide on the Starter CD for information.
Parallel- vs. serial-type
phone systems
Before you begin setting up the device for faxing,
determine which kind of phone system your country/
region uses.
NOTE: The instructions for fax setup differ depending
on whether you have a serial- or parallel-type phone
system.
If you do not see your country/region listed in the
following sections, you probably have a serial-type
phone system. If you are unsure which kind of telephone
system you have (serial or parallel), check with your
telephone company.
Countries/regions with parallel-
type phone systems
In a parallel-type phone system, you are able to connect
shared telephone equipment to the phone line by using
the "2-EXT" port on the back of the device.
Argentina Australia
Canada Chile
Colombia Greece
Indonesia Ireland
Korea Latin America
Mexico Philippines
Portugal Russia
Singapore Spain
Thailand USA
Vietnam
NOTE: If you have a parallel-type phone system,
HP recommends you use the 2-wire phone cord supplied
with the device to connect it to the telephone wall jack.
Countries/regions with serial-type
phone systems
In a serial-type phone system, the connector type on
your shared telephone equipment (modems, phones,
and answering machines) does not allow a physical
connection to the "2-EXT" port on the device. Instead,
all equipment must be connected at the telephone wall
jack.
NOTE: In some countries/regions that use serial-type
phone systems, the phone cord that came with the
device might have an additional wall plug attached to
it. This enables you to connect other telecom devices to
the wall jack where you plug in the device.
