Getting the MFP ready to fax
You can connect the printer to equipment such as a telephone, an answering machine, or a computer
modem. If problems occur, see Setup troubleshooting on page72.
Note: The printer is an analog device that works best when directly connected to the wall
jack. Other devices (such as a telephone or answering machine) can be
successfully attached to pass through the printer, as described in the setup steps.
If you want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL, a third-party device
(such as a DSL filter) is required.
You do not need to attach the printer to a computer, but you do need to connect it to a telephone line
to send and receive faxes.
You can connect the printer to other equipment. See the following table to determine the best way to
set up the printer.

using a computer.
