To set up the HP Photosmart on the same phone line as a computer with two phone ports

1.Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the HP Photosmart.

2.Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your computer dial-up modem) to a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone wall jack and plug it into the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the HP Photosmart.

3.Connect a phone to the "OUT" port on the back of your computer dial-up modem.

NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the HP Photosmart, 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.

5.If your modem software is set to receive faxes to your computer automatically, turn off that setting.

NOTE: If you do not turn off the automatic fax reception setting in your modem software, the HP Photosmart will not be able to receive faxes.
