Shared line with external modem (Case ADGI)

If you connected the HP OfficeJet to a shared phone line (receives
both voice and fax calls) that also has an external modem connected
to it, then use this connection diagram.

Connect your external modem to the HP OfficeJet. Find the
phone cord that goes from the back of your external modem to a
wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the wall jack and plug it into
either of the two ports on the back of the HP OfficeJet labeled,
“To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem.”

Important:

If your external modem’s software is set to automati-

cally receive faxes to your computer, turn off that setting; if you
don’t, your HP OfficeJet will not be able to receive faxes prop-
erly.

Connect your phone to the HP OfficeJet. Connect the cord
from your phone to either of the two ports on the back of the HP
OfficeJet labeled, “To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem.”

With this setup, you will need to

receive faxes manually

; the HP

OfficeJet will NOT answer incoming calls automatically.

To

receive a fax manually: When the phone rings, pick it up and
listen for fax tones; if you hear fax tones, press the START button
on the HP OfficeJet, then hang up the phone.

Refer to “Manually

receiving faxes” on page 3-8 for more information.

Continue with Step “8. Install the Software - REQUIRED!”
