Connecting additional equipment
Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the printer, and then connect a phone to this port.
If you are connecting additional equipment, such as a dial-up computer modem or a telephone, you will need to purchase a parallel splitter. A parallel splitter has one RJ-11 port on the front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use
a 2–line phone splitter, a serial splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two
RJ-11 ports on the front and a plug on the back.
Note: If you subscribe to a DSL/ADSL service, connect to the DSL/ ADSL filter to the parallel splitter, and then use the HP-provided telephone cord to connect the other end of the filter to the 1-Line port on the printer. Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the printer, and then connect a telephone set or telephone answering machine to the 2-EXT port. Next, connect the second port of the parallel splitter to the DSL/ADSL modem which is connecting to the computer.
