no other office equipment (or voice mail) on  this phone line, set up the device as
described in this section.

2Use the phone cord supplied in the box with the device to connect to
the 1-LINE port
3Telephone (optional)
To set up the device with a shared voice/fax line
1. Using the phone cord supplied in the box  with the device, connect one end to your
telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the
back of the device.
NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall
jack to the 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.
2. Do one of the following:
• If you have a parallel-type phone system, remove the white plug from the port
labeled 2-EXT on the back of the device,  and then connect a phone to this port.
• If you have a serial-type phone system,  you might plug your phone directly on
top of the device cable which has a wall plug attached to it.

3.Now you need to decide how you want  the device to answer calls, automatically or
manually:
• If you set up the device to answer calls  automatically, it answers all incoming
calls and receives faxes. The device will not be able to distinguish between fax
and voice calls in this case; if you suspect  the call is a voice call, you will need
to answer it before the device answers the call. To set up the device to answer
calls automatically, turn on the  Auto Answer setting.
• If you set up the device to answer faxes  manually, you must be available to
respond in person to incoming fax calls or the device cannot receive faxes. To
set up the device to answer calls manually, turn off the  Auto Answer setting.
4. Run a fax test.
If you pick up the phone before the device  answers the call and hear fax tones from a
sending fax machine, you will need to answer the fax call manually.
Case F: Shared voice/fax line with voice mail
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you also
subscribe to a voice mail service through your telephone company, set up the device
as described in this section.
NOTE: You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service at
the same phone number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually;
this means you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls. If you
want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your telephone company to
subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a separate phone line for faxing.

phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your
home or office.
2. Turn off the  Auto Answer  setting.
3. Run a fax test.
You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or the device cannot
receive faxes. You must initiate the manual fax before voicemail picks up the line.
Case G: Fax line shared with computer modem (no voice calls received)
If you have a fax line on which you  receive no voice calls, and you also have a
computer modem connected on this line, set up the device as described in this section.
NOTE: If you have a computer dial-up modem, your computer dial-up modem
shares the phone line with the device. You will  not be able to use both your modem
and the device simultaneously. For example, you cannot use the device for faxing
while you are using your  computer dial-up modem to send an e-mail or access the
Internet.

If you use your phone line for both  fax and telephone calls, use these instructions to
set up your fax.
There are two different ways to set up  the device with your computer based on the
number of phone ports on your computer.  Before you begin, check your computer to
see if it has one or two phone ports.
• If your computer has only one phone  port, you will need to purchase a parallel
splitter (also called a coupler), as shown below. (A parallel splitter has one RJ-11
port on the front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use a two-line phone
splitter, a serial splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two RJ-11 ports on the front
and a plug on the back.)

set up the device to answer calls manually, turn off the  Auto Answer setting.
8. Run a fax test.
NOTE: If your computer has two telephone ports on the back, you do not need to
use a parallel splitter. You can plug the telephone into the “OUT” port on the
computer dial-up modem.
If you pick up the phone before the device  answers the call and hear fax tones from a
sending fax machine, you will need to answer the fax call manually.

otherwise you will experience noise when making voice calls.
2. Using the phone cord supplied in the box  with the devices, connect one end to the
DSL filter, then connect the other end to the  port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the
device.
NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord  to connect from the DSL filter to

To set up the device with a shared voice/fax line with answering machine
1.Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the device.
2. Unplug your answering machine from the telephone wall jack, and connect it to the
port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the device.
NOTE: If you do not connect your answering machine directly to the device,
fax tones from a sending fax machine might be recorded on your answering
machine, and you probably will not be able to receive faxes with the device.
3. Using the phone cord supplied in the box  with the device, connect one end to your
telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the
back of the device.
NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall
jack to the 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.
4. (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 device. You can
use standard phone cords for these connections.
5. Turn on the  Auto Answer  setting.
6. Set your answering machine to answer after a low number of rings.
7. Change the  Rings to Answer  setting on the device to the maximum number of
rings supported by your device. (The maximum number of rings varies by country/
region.)
8. 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 device monitors the call during
this time, listening for fax tones. If incoming fax tones are detected, the device emits
fax reception tones and receives the fax; if there are no fax tones, the device stops
monitoring the line and your answering machine can record a voice message.
Case J: Shared voice/fax line with computer modem and answering machine
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you also
have a computer modem and answering machine connected on this phone line, set up
the HP device as described in this section.
