Set up faxing for the device 
After completing all the steps in the getting started guide, use the instructions in this
section to complete your fax setup. Keep your getting started guide for later use.
In this section, you will learn how to set up the device so that faxing works successfully
with equipment and services you might already have on the same phone line.

							TIP:You can also use the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or HP Fax Setup Utility
(Mac OS) to help you quickly set up some important fax settings such as the
answer mode and fax header information. You can access the Fax Setup Wizard
(Windows) or HP Fax Setup Utility (Mac OS) through the software you installed
with the device. After you run the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or HP Fax Setup
Utility (Mac OS), follow the procedures in this section to complete your fax setup.
This section contains the following topics:
•
Set up faxing (parallel phone systems)
•
Serial-type fax setup
Set up faxing (parallel phone systems)
Before you begin setting up the device for faxing, determine which kind of phone
system your country/region uses. 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 table below, you probably have a
serial-type phone system. 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.
• If your country/region is listed in the table below, you probably have a parallel-type
telephone system. 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.
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.

Choose the correct fax setup for your home or office
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any)
share the same phone line with the device. This is important because you might need
to connect some of your existing office equipment directly to the device, and you might
also need to change some fax settings before you can fax successfully.
To determine the best way to set up the device in your home or office, first read
through the questions in this section and record your answers. Next, refer to the table
in the following section and choose the recommended setup case based on your
answers.
Make sure to read and answer the following questions in the order they are presented.
1.Do you have a digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone
company? (DSL might be called ADSL in your country/region.)
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to 
Case B: Set up the device with DSL. You
do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered No, continue answering questions.
2.Do you have a private branch exchange (PBX) phone system or an integrated
services digital network (ISDN) system?
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to 
Case C: Set up the device with a PBX
phone system or an ISDN line. You do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered No, continue answering questions.

							3.Do you subscribe to a distinctive ring service through your telephone company that
provides multiple phone numbers with different ring patterns?
If you answered Yes, proceed directly to 
Case D: Fax with a distinctive ring service
on the same line. You do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered No, continue answering questions.
Are you unsure if you have distinctive ring? Many phone companies offer a
distinctive ring feature that allows you to have several phone numbers on one
phone line.
When you subscribe to this service, each phone number will have a different ring
pattern. For example, you can have single, double, and triple rings for the different
numbers. You might assign one phone number with a single ring to your voice
calls, and another phone number with double rings to your fax calls. This allows
you to tell the difference between voice and fax calls when the phone rings.
4.Do you receive voice calls at the same phone number you will use for fax calls on
the device?
Continue answering questions.
5.Do you have a computer dial-up modem on the same phone line as the device?
Are you unsure if you use a computer dial-up modem? If you answer Yes to any of
the following questions, you are using a computer dial-up modem:
• Do you send and receive faxes directly to and from your computer software
applications through a dial-up connection?
• Do you send and receive e-mail messages on your computer through a dial-up
connection?
• Do you access the Internet from your computer through a dial-up connection?
Continue answering questions.
6.Do you have an answering machine that answers voice calls at the same phone
number you will use for fax calls on the device?
Continue answering questions.
7.Do you subscribe to a voice mail service through your telephone company at the
same phone number you will use for fax calls on the device?
After you have completed answering the questions, proceed to the next section to
select your fax setup case.
Select your fax setup case
Now that you have answered all the questions about the equipment and services that
share the phone line with the device, you are ready to choose the best setup case for
your home or office.
From the first column in the following table, choose the combination of equipment and
services applicable to your home or office setting. Then look up the appropriate setup
case in the second or third column based on your phone system. Step-by-step
instructions are included for each case in the sections that follow.
If you have answered all the questions in the previous section and have none of the
described equipment or services, choose None from the first column in the table.

							NOTE:If your home or office setup is not described in this section, set up the
device as you would a regular analog phone. Make sure you use the phone cord
supplied in the box to connect one end to your telephone wall jack and the other
end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the device. If you use another phone
cord, you might experience problems sending and receiving faxes.
