Kodak ESP 9 All-in-One printer Using an answering machine with the ESP 9 All-in-One fax If you use an answering machine to retrieve and record messages from telephone callers when you are not available to pick up the handset, you can set up your telephone to work with both the answering machine and the printer. However, because answering machines cannot recognize fax calls or record fax signals for conversion later to a fax printout, care must be taken if you plan to accept fax calls automatically. Before using your printer to accept faxes automatically when you are also using an answering machine, make sure the answering machine is connected correctly to the printer (see the illustrations that follow). Make sure the answering machine is set to answer calls before the printer. See Specifying rings to answer, page 40. Connecting the phone and fax Identify the type of fax connection appropriate for you from the information below, and follow the instructions to configure your printer for sending and receiving faxes. Type of Fax Connections Fax Setup Procedure Multipurpose (broadband) digital telephone systems Connecting the printer to a digital telephone service line, page 37 Standard telephone systems Connecting the printer to a standard telephone line, page 38 Digital subscriber line (DSL) systems Connecting the printer to a digital telephone service line, page 37 Connecting the printer to a digital telephone service line If the telephone line you intend to use for faxing through the All-in-One printer is configured to either an Internet phone service or to a cable phone service, connect your printer to the phone as described below: 1. Disconnect the phone cord from the wall jack that connects your modem to the telephone wall jack and plug it into the port labeled LINE-In on your printer. 2. If you use an answering machine: • Connect your answering machine to the EXT-Out port on the back of your All-in-One printer. CAUTION: The answering machine should be set to a fewer number of rings than the Rings to Answer setting. This will ensure that the answering machine picks up first.
