HP Officejet J5740 All-in-One Printer - Manual (Page 43)

There are two different ways to set the HP All-in-One with your computer based on the
number of phone ports on your computer. Before you begin, check your computer to see
if it has one or two phone ports.
• If your computer has only one phone port, you will need to purchase a parallel splitter
(also called a coupler), as shown below. (A parallel splitter has one RJ-11 port on the
front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use a 2-line phone splitter, a serial
splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two RJ-11 ports on the front and a plug on the
back.)

• If your computer has two phone ports, set up the HP All-in-One as described below.
