Scenario 2: Digital Subscriber Line (DSL )A Digital Subscriber Line splits your regula r telephone line into two channels: voic e and Internet. Tele phone and fax
signals travel through the voice channel, and Internet signals pass through the other channel. This way, you can use
the same line for analog voice cal ls (including faxes) and dig ital Internet access.
To minimize interference between the two channels an d ensure a quality connection, you need t o install a DSL filter
for the analog devices (fax machine, teleph one, answering machine) in your network. Interference causes noise a nd
static on the telephone, failed and poor quality faxes for the printer, and slow Internet connec tion on your computer.
To install a filter for the printer:
1Connect the line port of the DSL filter to the wall jack.
2Connect a telephone cable from the port on the back of the printer to the phone port on the DSL filter.
3To continue using a computer for Internet access, connect the computer to the DSL HPN port on the DSL filter.
4To connect a telephone to the printer, remove the protective plug from the port of the printer and then connect
the telephone to the port.
