HP Officejet Pro 8500 - Manual (Page 140)

• If you are using a PBX phone system, dial the number for an outside line before
dialing the fax number.
• Make sure you use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to
the device. If you do not, you might not be able to fax successfully. This special
phone cord is different from the phone cords you might already have in your home
or office. If the supplied phone cord is too short, you can purchase a coupler from
your local electronics store and extend it.
You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for
your country/region.
If you encounter problems setting up the device with optional equipment, contact your
local service provider or vendor for further assistance.
Case D: Fax with a distinctive ring service on the same line
If you subscribe to a distinctive ring service (through your telephone company) that
allows you to have multiple phone numbers on one phone line, each with a different
ring pattern, set up the device as described in this section.
