Connect the fax accessory to a phone line

When connecting the fax accessory to a phone line, ensure that the phone line that is being used for
the fax accessory is a dedicated line that is not used by any other devices. In addition, 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.

1.

Locate the phone cord that is included in the fax accessory kit. Connect one end of the phone
cord to the fax-accessory phone jack on the formatter. Push the connector until it clicks.

CAUTION

Be sure to connect the phone line to the fax-accessory phone jack , which is

near the bottom of the formatter. Do not connect the phone line to the HP Jetdirect LAN
port, which is closer to the top of the formatter.

2.

Connect the other end of the phone cord to 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.
