1. Setting Up Shared line with external modem and computer voicemail (Case ADFI) If you connected the HP OfficeJet to a shared phone line (receives both voice and fax calls) that also has an external modem and computer voicemail, then use this connection diagram. Phone optional, Computer with External but recommended voicemail feature modem Telephone wall jack q Connect your external modem to the HP OfficeJet. Find the phone cord that goes from the back of your external modem to a wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the wall jack and plug it into either of the two ports on the back of the HP OfficeJet labeled, "To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem." Important: If your external modem's software is set to automatically receive faxes to your computer, turn off that setting; if you don't, your HP OfficeJet will not be able to receive faxes. q Connect your computer voicemail phone cord to the HP OfficeJet. Locate the phone cord that goes from the back of your computer to a wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the wall jack and plug it into either of the two ports on the back of the HP OfficeJet labeled, "To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem." Important: Set your voicemail software to answer calls after 4 or fewer rings, and make sure your outgoing greeting message is no longer than 30 seconds. If you don't, you may not receive faxes. q Connect your phone to your computer voicemail. Connect the cord from your phone to the back of your computer voicemail. q After you install the software in Step 8, and answer the Setup Wizard questions for this connection case, here's how you'll automatically receive faxes with the HP OfficeJet: Your computer voicemail will pick up the call after the number of rings you've set, then the HP OfficeJet will "listen" while voicemail plays its greeting. If the HP OfficeJet detects fax tones, it will cut off the voicemail and receive the fax. If you don't connect your computer voicemail phone cord directly to the HP OfficeJet as described here, you may not receive your faxes properly. q Continue with Step "8. Install the Software - REQUIRED!" 1-21
