Set up and use fax

Step 1: Connect the printer to the phone line

English

Before you begin…

Before beginning, be sure you have done the following:

Installed ink cartridges

Loaded A4- or letter-size paper in the tray

Have the telephone cord and adapter (if provided with the printer) ready.

For more information, see the setup poster included in the box with the printer.

1.Using the phone cord provided in the box with the printer, connect one end to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.

Note: You might need to use the adapter provided for your country/region to connect the printer to your telephone wall jack.

Note: If the phone cord that came with the printer is not long enough, purchase a coupler at an electronics store that carries phone accessories to extend the length. You also need another phone cord, which can be a standard phone cord that you might already have in your home or office. For more information, see the user guide.

CAUTION: If you use a phone cord other than the one provided with the printer, you might not

be able to fax successfully. Because phone cords that you might be using in your home or office can be different from the one provided with the printer, HP recommends that you use the phone cord that is provided with the printer.

2.Connect any other telephone equipment. For more information about connecting and setting up additional devices or services with the printer, see the boxes in this section or see the user guide.

Note: If you encounter problems setting up the printer with other equipment or services, contact the telephone company or service provider.

Tip: If you subscribe to a voicemail service on the same phone line that you will use for faxing, you cannot receive faxes automatically. Because you must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, be sure to turn off the Auto Answer feature.

If you want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your telephone company to subscribe to a distinctive ring service or to obtain a separate telephone line for faxing.
