how to choose the right fax setup for your office
Caution! Please refer to how to tell if the following instructions apply to you on page 77 before following any of these instructions.
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any) share the same telephone line with your HP Fax. This is important because you might need to connect some of your existing office equipment directly to your HP Fax, and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax successfully.
To determine the best way to set up the HP Fax in your 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.
Be sure to read and answer the following questions in the order they are presented.
1Do you subscribe to a distinctive ring service through your phone company that provides multiple phone numbers with different ring patterns?
!Yes, I have distinctive ring.
!No.
If you answered “Yes,” proceed directly to case B: faxing with a distinctive ring service on the same line on page 82. You do not need to continue answering questions.
If you answered “No,” please continue answering questions.
Not sure 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 number will have a different ring
2Do you receive voice calls at the same phone number you will use for fax calls on your HP Fax?
!Yes, I receive voice calls.
!No.
Please continue answering questions.
