Connect the fax accessory to a phone line

When connecting the fax accessory to a phone line, ensure that the phone line being used for the fax accessory

is a dedicated line that is not used by any other devices. Also, this line should be an analog line because the fax

will not function correctly if it is connected to some digital PBX systems. If you are not sure whether you have an

analog or digital phone line, contact your telecom provider.

NOTE:

HP recommends using the phone cord that comes with the fax accessory to ensure that the accessory

functions correctly.

Follow these instructions to connect the fax accessory to a phone jack.

1.

Locate the phone cord that is included with the fax accessory kit. Connect one end of the phone cord into

the fax accessory phone jack that is on the fax card. Push the connector until it clicks.

CAUTION:

Be sure to connect the phone line to the fax accessory port. Do not connect the phone line to

the LAN port, which is nearer the bottom of the formatter.

2.

Connect the other end of the phone cord into the phone jack on the wall. Push the connector until it clicks

or until it is securely seated. Because

different

types of connectors are used in

different

countries/regions,

the connector might not make an audible click.

Verify fax operation

Check the printer control panel to verify fax operation:

: If the fax icon on the control panel is dimmed, the fax accessory is not installed or not

configured.

When you select the icon, a message prompts you to contact the administrator.

●

FutureSmart 4

: The fax icon on the control panel is available (not dimmed). Select the fax icon to check the

status:
