terminal adapter is set to the correct switch type for your country/region, if possible. For more

information, see Case C: Set up the printer with a PBX phone system or an ISDN line

on page 212.

If the printer shares the same phone line with a DSL service, the DSL modem might not be

grounded correctly. If the DSL modem is not grounded correctly, it can create noise on the

phone line. Phone lines with poor sound quality (noise) can cause faxing problems. You can

check the sound quality of the phone line by plugging a phone into the telephone wall jack and

listening for static or other noise. If you hear noise, turn off your DSL modem and completely

remove power for at least 15 minutes. Turn the DSL modem back on and listen to the dial tone

again.

NOTE: You might notice static on the phone line again in the future. If the printer stops sending

and receiving faxes, repeat this process.

If the phone line is still noisy, contact your telephone company. For information on turning your

DSL modem off, contact your DSL provider for support.

If you are using a phone splitter, this can cause faxing problems. (A splitter is a two-cord

connector that plugs into a telephone wall jack.) Try removing the splitter and connecting the

printer directly to the telephone wall jack.
