To set up the HP All-in-One with a distinctive ring service

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

NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the HP All-in-One, 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 on the Auto Answer setting.

3.Change the Distinctive Ring setting to match the pattern that the telephone company assigned to your fax number.

NOTE: By default, the HP All-in-One is set to answer all ring patterns. If you do not set the Distinctive Ring to match the ring pattern assigned to your fax number, the HP All-in-One might answer both voice calls and fax calls or it might not answer at all.

4.(Optional) Change the Rings to Answer setting to the lowest setting (two rings).

5.Run a fax test.

The HP All-in-One will automatically answer incoming calls that have the ring pattern you selected (Distinctive Ring setting) 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 E: 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 (or voice mail) on this phone line, set up the HP All-in-One as described in this section.
