To set up the product with voice mail

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

NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the product, you might not be able to fax successfully. This special phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your home or office.

2.Turn off the Auto Answer setting.

3.Run a fax test.

You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or the product cannot receive faxes.

Case G: Fax line shared with computer dial-up modem (no voice calls received)

If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a computer dial-up modem connected on this line, set up the HP Photosmart as described in this section.

Since your computer dial-up modem shares the phone line with the HP Photosmart, you will not be able to use both your modem and the HP Photosmart simultaneously. For example, you cannot use the HP Photosmart for faxing if you are using your computer dial-up modem to send an e-mail or access the Internet.
