English Connecting additional devices Note Depending on the setup of your telephone lines, you can connect additional devices to the telephone line along with the HP LaserJet all-in-one. As a general rule, no more than three devices should be connected to a single telephone line. If too many devices are connected to a single telephone line, one or more of the devices might not detect an incoming call. If this occurs, disconnect one or more of the devices. The HP LaserJet all-in-one device cannot replace a computer modem. It cannot act as a data modem for sending and receiving e-mail, connecting to the Internet, or communicating with other computers. Using a dedicated fax line If you connect the HP LaserJet all-in-one device to a telephone line that is used only for fax calls, you might want to connect the following devices: ● Caller-ID box ● Modem: You can connect a computer modem (external or internal) to the fax line if you want to use the fax line for e-mail or for access to the Internet, but you cannot send or receive faxes while using the line for these purposes. ● Extra telephone: You can connect an extra telephone to the fax line if you want to make outgoing calls on the fax line. You should not connect the following devices: ● Answering machine or computer voicemail: If you use computer voicemail, you must connect a modem (external or internal) to your dedicated voice line. Then, use the dedicated voice line to connect to the Internet and receive voicemail. Note Using a shared telephone line If you connected the device to a telephone line that is shared between fax calls and voice calls, or if you have one telephone line that has two telephone numbers and a ring-pattern service, you might want to connect the following devices: ● Caller-ID box ● Modem: You can connect a computer modem (external or internal) to the shared line if you want to use the shared line for e-mail or for access to the Internet, but you cannot send or receive faxes while using the line for these purposes. ● Extra telephone: You can connect a telephone to the shared line if you want to make or answer voice calls on the shared line. ● Answering machine or computer voicemail: You should connect these devices to the same telephone jack as the device to make sure that the different devices do not interfere with one another. It is possible to connect devices to another telephone jack for the same telephone line (in another room, for example). However, the devices could interfere with faxing and with each other.
