HP Color LaserJet CM4730 Multifunction Printer series - Manual (Page 194)

Analog fax
When the analog fax accessory is installed, the MFP can function as a standalone fax machine.
The HP Color LaserJet CM4730f MFP, HP Color LaserJet CM4730fsk MFP, and HP Color LaserJet
CM4730fm MFP models come with a fax accessory already installed. For the HP Color LaserJet
CM4730 MFP (base model), you can order this accessory as an option. See
Part numbers for
information about ordering the analog fax accessory. The Analog Fax Accessory 300 Fax Guide and
the Analog Fax Accessory 300 Send Fax Driver Guide are located on the MFP software CD or at
http://www.hp.com/go/mfpfaxaccessory300 .
Connect the fax accessory to a phone line
When connecting the fax accessory to a phone line, ensure that the phone line being used for the fax
accessory is a dedicated line that is not used by any other devices. Also, this line should be an analog
line because the fax will not function correctly if it is connected to some digital PBX systems. If you are
not sure whether you have an analog or digital phone line, contact your telecom provider.
NOTE HP recommends using the phone cord that comes with the fax accessory to ensure that
the accessory functions correctly.
Follow these instructions to connect the fax accessory to a phone jack.
1. Locate the phone cord that is included with the fax accessory kit. Connect one end of the phone
cord into the fax accessory phone jack that is on the formatter. Push the connector until it clicks.
CAUTION Be sure to connect the phone line to the fax accessory port, which is located in
the center of the formatter. Do not connect the phone line to the HP Jetdirect port, which is
nearer the bottom of the formatter.
2. Connect the other end of the phone cord into the phone jack on the wall. Push the connector until
it clicks or until it is securely seated. Because different types of connectors are used in different
countries/regions, the connector might not make an audible click.
