Answering machine: An answering machine that answers voice calls at the same phone number you use for fax calls on the device.

Voice mail service: A voice mail subscription through your telephone company at the same number you use for fax calls on the device.

3.From the following table, choose the combination of equipment and services applicable to your home or office setting. Then look up the recommended fax setup. Step-by-step instructions are included for each case in the sections that follow.

NOTE: If your home or office setup is not described in this section, set up the device as you would a regular analog phone. Make sure you use the phone cord supplied in the box to connect one end to your telephone wall jack and the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the device. If you use another phone cord, you might experience problems sending and receiving faxes.

You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your country/region.
