							Changing ring patterns (distinctive ring)
Ring-pattern or distinctive-ring service is available through some local telephone companies. The
service allows you to have more than one telephone number on a single line. Each telephone
number has a unique ring pattern, so that you can answer voice calls and\
 the all-in-one can answer
fax calls.
If you subscribe to a ring-pattern service with your  telephone company, you must set the all-in-one to
answer the correct ring pattern. Not all  regions/countries support unique ring patterns. Contact your
telephone company to determine if this service is available in your region/country.
NOTE If you do not have ring-pattern service  and you change the ring-pattern settings to
something other than the default,  All Rings, the all-in-one might not be able to receive faxes.
The settings are as follows:
●All Rings: The all-in-one answers any calls that come through the telephone line.
● Single
: The all-in-one answers any calls that produce a single-ring pattern.
● Double
: The all-in-one answers any calls that produce a double-ring pattern.
● Triple
: The all-in-one answers any calls that produce a triple-ring pattern.
● Double&Triple : The all-in-one answers any calls that produce a double-ring or triple-ring pattern.

							Changing the rings-to-answer setting
When the answer mode is set to Automatic, the all-in-one rings-to-answer setting determines the
number of times the telephone rings before the all-in-one answers an incoming call.
If the all-in-one is connected to a line that receives both  fax and voice calls (a shared line) and that
also uses an answering machine, you might need to adjust the rings-to-answer setting. The number
of rings-to-answer for the all-in-one must be  greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering
machine. This allows the answering machine to answer  the incoming call and record a message if it
is a voice call. When the answering machine answers the  call, the all-in-one listens to the call and
automatically answers it if it detects fax tones.
The default setting for rings-to-answer is five for the U.S. and Canada, and two for other countries/
regions.
Using the rings-to-answer setting
Use the following table to determine the number of rings-to-answer to use.
Type of telephone lineRecommended rings-to-answer setting

than the answering system. Also see 
Changing ring patterns(distinctive ring) .)

							Sending a fax by dialing from an extension telephone
Occasionally, you might want to dial a fax number from an extension telephone that is connected to
the same line as the all-in-one. For example, if you are sending a fax to a person whose device is in
the manual receive mode, you can precede the fax with  a voice call to let that person know that the
fax is coming.
To send a fax by dialing from an extension telephone
NOTE The telephone must be connected to the telephone  port (the port that is marked with
a telephone icon).
1. Load the document into the automatic document feeder (ADF) input tray.
NOTE You cannot use the flatbed scanner (HP LaserJet 3055/3390/3392 all-in-one)
when sending a fax by dialing from an extension telephone.
2. Pick up the handset of a telephone that is connected to the same line as the all-in-one. Dial the
fax number by using the telephone keypad.
3. When the recipient answers, instruct the  person to start the fax machine.
4. When you hear the fax tones, press  Start Fax, wait until  Connecting  appears on the control-
panel display, and then hang up the telephone.
Changing the detect-dial-tone setting
Normally, the all-in-one begins dialing a fax number immediately. If you are using the all-in-one on
the same line as your telephone, turn on the detect-dial-tone setting. This prevents the all-in-one
from sending a fax while someone is on the telephone.
The factory-set default for  detect dial tone is On for France and Hungary, and  Off for all other
countries/regions.
To change the detect-dial-tone setting
1. On the all-in-one control panel, press  Menu.
2. Use the  < or the  > button to select  Fax setup, and then press 
.
3. Press  > once to select  Fax Send setup , and then press

							Receiving faxes on a shared phone line
You can receive faxes to the all-in-one or to your computer. In general, incoming faxes to the all-in-
one are automatically answered. However, if you change the devices that are connected to the same
telephone line as the all-in-one, you must  change how the all-in-one answers incoming faxes. See
Setting the answer mode for instructions.
Follow the procedures in this section to manage  faxes that are routed to the all-in-one.
To receive faxes when you hear fax tones
If you have a telephone line that receives both fax  and telephone calls, and you hear fax tones when
you answer the telephone, you can start the receiving process in one of two ways:
● If you are close to the all-in-one, press 
Start Fax on the control panel.
● When you answer any telephone connected to the line (an extension telephone) and hear fax
tones, the all-in-one should begin answering the call automatically. If not, press 1-2-3 in
sequence on the telephone keypad (in tone-dialing mode only), listen for fax transmission
sounds, and then hang up.
NOTE
In order for the second method to work, the extension telephone setting must be set
to  YES . See 
Making an extension telephone available to receive faxes  to check or change the
setting.
Making an extension telephone available to receive faxes
With this setting turned on, you can alert the all-in-one  to pick up the incoming fax call by pressing
1-2-3 sequentially on the telephone keypad (in tone-dial mode only). The default setting is  On. Turn
this setting off only if you use pulse dialing or  if you have a service from your telephone company that
also uses the 1-2-3 sequence. The telephone company service does not wor\
k if it conflicts with the
all-in-one.
To make an extension telephone available to receive faxes
1. On the all-in-one control panel, press  Menu.
2. Use the  < or the  > button to select  Fax setup, and then press 
.
3. Use the  < or the  > button to select  Fax Recv. setup , and then press 
.
4. Use the  < or the  > button to select  Extension Phone , and then press 
.
5. Use the  < or the  > button to select  On or  Off, and then press 
 to save your selection.

							Connecting additional devices
Depending on the setup of your telephone lines, you can connect additional devices to the telephone
line along with the HP LaserJet all-in-one.
As a general rule, no more than three devices should be connected to a single telephone line. If too
many devices are connected to a single telephone line, one or more of the devices might not detect
an incoming call. If this occurs, disconnect one or more of the devices.
NOTE The HP LaserJet all-in-one cannot replace a computer modem. It cannot act as a
data modem for sending and receiving e-mail, connecting to the Internet, or communicating
with other computers.
