how to answer fax calls manually
You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or your HP Officejet cannot receive faxes. For information about how to receive fax calls manually from your attached phone and from an extension phone, see receive a fax manually on page 40.
faxing from a DSL line
If you have a digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your phone company, use the instructions in this section to connect a DSL filter between the telephone wall jack and your HP Officejet. This filter removes the digital signal that would block your HP Officejet from communicating properly with the telephone line.
Caution! If you have a DSL line and you do not connect the DSL filter, you will not be able to send and receive faxes with your HP Officejet.
