how to tell if the instructions in this chapter apply to you

The fax setup instructions in this chapter are intended for parallel-type telephone systems, which are most common in the countries/regions listed in the following table.

Check the table on the next page to see if you are located in one of the listed countries/regions:

If your country/region is listed, use the instructions in this chapter to complete your fax setup.

If your country/region does not appear in this list, you probably have a serial-type telephone system and you should not use the connection instructions in this chapter. In a serial-type telephone system, connect all other telephone equipment (modems, phones, and answering machines) directly to your telephone wall jack. If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (parallel or serial), check with your telephone company.
