Use the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP PSC

1Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP PSC, connect one end to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled “1-LINE” on the back of your HP PSC.

Caution! If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to your HP PSC, you probably will not be able to fax successfully. This special 2-wire cord is different from the more common 4-wire phone cords you might already have in your office. For more information about how to tell the difference between the cords, see I have difficulties when sending faxes and when receiving faxes on page 220.

2Change the Answer Ring Pattern setting to the pattern that has been assigned by the phone company to your fax number—for example, double rings or triple rings.

For information about how to change this setting, see change the answer ring pattern (distinctive ringing) on page 71.

Note: Your HP PSC is factory-set to answer all ring patterns. If you do not set the correct ring pattern assigned by the phone company to your fax number, your HP PSC might answer both voice calls and fax calls or it might not answer at all.

3(Optional) Change the Rings to Answer setting to 1 ring or 2 rings.

For information on how to change this setting, see set number of rings before answering on page 61.

how your hp psc will answer fax calls

Your HP PSC will automatically answer incoming calls that have the ring pattern you selected (Answer Ring Pattern setting) and after the number of rings you selected (Rings to Answer setting). Then it will begin emitting fax reception tones to the sending fax machine and receive the fax.

case C: shared voice/fax line

If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you have no other office equipment on this phone line, connect your HP PSC as described in this section.
