chapter 16 Before you can answer fax calls manually, you must change the Rings to Answer setting to No Answer as described in set number of rings before answering on page 61. For information on how to receive fax calls manually from your attached phone and from an extension phone, see receive a fax manually on page 63. case D: fax line shared with PC modem (no voice calls received) If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a PC modem connected on this line, connect your HP PSC as described in this section. Note: Since your PC modem shares the telephone line with your HP PSC, you will not be able to use both your PC modem and your HP PSC simultaneously. For example, while you are sending and receiving faxes, you will not be able to send/receive e-mail or access the Internet.

fax setup
Before you can answer fax calls manually, you must change the Rings to Answer
setting to No Answer as described in
set number of rings before answering
on
page 61. For information on how to receive fax calls manually from your
attached phone and from an extension phone, see
receive a fax manually
on
page 63.
case D: fax line shared with PC modem (no voice calls
received)
If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a
PC modem connected on this line, connect your HP PSC as described in this
section.
Note:
Since your PC modem shares the telephone line with your HP PSC,
you will not be able to use both your PC modem and your HP PSC
simultaneously. For example, while you are sending and receiving faxes,
you will not be able to send/receive e-mail or access the Internet.
1
Remove the white plug from the port labeled “2-EXT” on the back of your
HP PSC.
2
Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your PC
modem) to a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone
wall jack and plug it into the port labeled “2-EXT” on the back of your
HP PSC.
3
Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP PSC, connect one
end to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port
labeled “1-LINE” on the back of your HP PSC.
Caution!
If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the
telephone wall jack to your HP PSC, you probably will not be able
to fax successfully. This special 2-wire cord is different from the
more common 4-wire phone cords you might already have in your
office. For more information about how to tell the difference
between the cords, see
I have difficulties when sending faxes and
when receiving faxes
on page 220.
