Shared line with distinctive ring (Case B)
If you connected the HP OfficeJet to a phone line that uses a
distinctive ring service through your telephone company, use this
connection diagram.
The distinctive ring telephone service, which is unavailable in many
areas, allows you to have 2 or 3 phone numbers on the same phone
line. Each number has a ring with a different pattern so you can tell
the difference between incoming calls.
For more detailed information on setting up Distinctive Ring, refer to
“Using Distinctive Ring” on page 3-21.
● 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.”
Important: If you have an answering machine for receiving voice
calls on this phone line (different phone number), set it to answer
after 3 or more rings. If you don’t, your HP OfficeJet will not be
able to receive your fax calls.
Important: If you have an internal modem or an external modem
on this phone line (different phone number), turn off the setting in
the modem’s software that automatically receives faxes to your
computer; if you don’t, your HP OfficeJet will not be able to
receive faxes properly.
