2Listen for a dial tone through the telephone handset.

If you hear a dial tone, then the telephone line and the wall jack are working.

an analog telephone into the port of the printer.

If you do not hear a dial tone, then review Step 1 or see the “Fax troubleshooting checklist” on page 53.

Step 3: Set your fax name and fax number

Your user information includes your name or your company name, your fax number (your fax number is your telephone number, unless you have a dedicated fax telephone line), and the time and date on your fax machine when a transmission is made. This information appears in the header and footer of the faxes that you send.

In some countries, you cannot send a fax without this information. Some fax machines also block faxes without sender information, so make sure that you enter this information in your printer.

> Setup > OK > Fax Setup > OK > Dialing and Sending > OK > Fax Name > OK

2Enter your name or your company name, and then press OK .

4Enter your fax number or your telephone number, and then press OK .

Step 4: Set the printer to receive faxes automatically or manually

If the printer is connected to a dedicated fax line or sharing the line with an answering machine, then you can set the printer to receive faxes automatically. If the printer is sharing the line with a telephone subscribed to voice mail service, then set the printer to receive faxes manually.

1From the printer control panel, navigate to:

> Setup > OK > Fax Setup > OK > Ringing and Answering > OK > Auto Answer > OK
