A Digital Subscriber Line splits your r egular telephone line into two channels: voice and Internet . Telephone and fax
signals travel through the voice channel, and Internet signals pass through the other channel. This way, you can use
the same line for analog voice calls (including faxi ng) and digital Internet access.
To minimize interference between the two chan nels and ensure a quality connectio n, you need to install a DSL filter
for the analog devices (fax mach ine, telephone, answering machine) i n your network. Interference causes noise and
static on the telephone, failed and poor qualit y faxes for the printer, and slow Int ernet connection on your computer.
To install a filter for the printer:
1Connect the line port of the DSL filter to the wall jack.
2Connect a telephone cable from the port on the back of the printer to the phone port on the DSL filter.
3To continue using a computer for Internet access, connect the computer to the DSL HPN port on the DSL filter.
