There is a plug installed in the EXT port of the printer. This plug is necessary for the proper functioning of the printer.

Note:

Do not remove the plug. If you remove it, other telecommunications devices in your home (such as telephones

or answering machines) may not work.

Choosing a fax connection

You can connect the printer with equipment such as a telephone, an answering machine, or a computer modem. If

problems occur, see “Setup troubleshooting” on page 43.

Note:

The printer is an analog device that works best when directly connected to the wall jack. Other devices (such

as a telephone or answering machine) can be successfully attached to pass through the printer, as described in the

setup steps. If you want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL, a third-party device (such as a DSL filter) is

required.

You

do not

need to attach the printer to a computer, but you

do

need to connect it to a telephone line to send and

receive faxes.

You can connect the printer to other equipment. See the following table to determine the best way to set up the

printer.
