What is a splitter and what type of splitter should I use?

If there are limited wall jacks in your home or limited ports on your adapter, then you can use a phone splitter. A splitter splits the telephone signal and allows you to connect multiple devices to the wall jack. It has two or more ports where you can plug the devices. Do not use a line splitter.

To make sure that you are using the correct splitter, plug an analog telephone into the splitter and then listen for a dial tone.

What is my fax number?

In most cases, your telephone number is also your fax number. If you subscribe to the Distinctive Ring Pattern Detection (DRPD) service offered by telephone companies, then your fax number is the number that you assigned to the printer. Make sure that you enter the correct distinctive ring pattern for that number in the fax software or in the Fax Setup menu of the printer control panel.

If you have more than one telephone line, then make sure that you enter the number for the line on which the printer is connected.

What is my dialing prefix?

The dialing prefix is the number or series of numbers that you press before you can dial the actual fax number or telephone number. If the printer is an office setting or in a private branch exchange, this can be a specific number that you need to press so you can make a call outside the office. This can also be a country code or an area code that you need to enter if you are sending faxes outside of town. This can be very useful if you frequently send faxes to the same country or area. When you set the dialing prefix in the utility, you do not need to press the number or series of numbers every time you dial the fax number or telephone number. The printer automatically inputs the prefix every time you dial.

You can enter up to 8 characters as your dialing prefix. The valid characters are the numbers 0-9 and the characters

#and *. If you are using the fax software to enter the dial prefix, then you may also include the characters period, comma, star, pound, plus, minus, and parenthesis.

When do I need to set Auto Answer to On?

Set Auto Answer to On if you want the printer to receive faxes automatically.

If the printer is connected to the same telephone line with an answering machine, then you must set Auto Answer to On so that you can receive both your voice calls and your faxes. Make sure that the answering machine is set to pick up on fewer rings than the rings set in the printer. This lets the other devices pick up the voice calls first. If an incoming call is a fax, the printer can detect fax signals on the line and takes the call.

How many rings should I set?

If the printer is sharing a line with an answering machine, then set the printer to pick up on the greater number of rings. Because you have only one line, there is no way of distinguishing a voice call from an incoming fax. You can set the number of rings so that the answering machine takes the voice calls and the printer takes the incoming faxes. If you set the other devices to pick up on fewer rings, then the devices pick up calls first, and your voice calls are received. If a call is a fax, then the printer can detect it and will take over the call.

If the printer is on a dedicated fax line, then you may set the printer to pick up on any number of rings that you want.
