NOTE: If the phone communication is serial in your country (such as Germany, Sweden, Denmark,
Austria, Belgium, Italy, France, and Switzerland), you must remove the blue plug from the righ t
connector ( ), and insert the supplied yellow terminator for your fax to work correctly. You will not

What if I Have a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL)?
DSL delivers digital data to a computer through a telephone line. Your Dell Photo AIO Printer
964 is designed to work with analog data. If you are faxing over a telephone line connected to a
DSL modem, install a DSL filter to avoid interference with the analog fax modem signal.
1Connect the DSL filter to an active telephone line.
2Connect the printer directly to the output of the DSL filter.
NOTE: Do not install any splitters between the DSL filter and the printer. Contact your DSL service
provider if you need more help.
