a. Set the Auto Answer option.

•Turn it on if you want the HP Photosmart to answer calls automatically.

•Turn it off if you want to respond to incoming calls in person.

b. Run a fax test.

3.Plug your phone into the telephone wall jack.

4.Do one of the following, depending on your phone system:

•If you have a parallel-type phone system, remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the HP Photosmart, and then connect a phone to this port.

•If you have a serial-type phone system, you might plug your phone directly on top of the HP Photosmart cable which has a wall plug attached to it.
