Faxing FAQ

If I skipped the fax setup initially, do I need to run the installer again to set up the fax?

You do not need to run the installer again. You can set up and configure the fax through the fax software that was installed with the printer software.

1Connect the printer to the telephone line. For more information, see “Setting up the printer to fax” on page 63.

2Configure the fax settings using the fax software. To access the fax software:

For Windows users a Click or Start.

bClick All Programs or Programs, and then select the printer program folder from the list.

cClick Printer Home > Fax >Set up the printer to fax. The Fax Setup Wizard opens.

dRun the wizard. Make sure you select the correct telephone service and connection. The wizard configures optimal fax settings based on your connection.

For Macintosh users

aFrom the Applications folder in the Finder, or from the Finder desktop, double-click the printer folder.

bDouble-click Printer Settings, and then configure the fax settings.

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.
