HP Photosmart 3110 All-in-One Printer - Manual (Page 42)

To set up your HP All-in-One with a shared voice/fax line
1.
Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP All-in-One, connect one
end to your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled "1-
LINE" on the back of your HP All-in-One.
Note If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone
wall jack to your HP All-in-One, 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, see
The phone cord that came with my HP All-in-One is not long
enough for information on extending it.
2. Do one of the following, depending on your phone system:
–
If you have a parallel-type phone system, remove the white plug from the
port labeled "2-EXT" on the back of your HP All-in-One, and then connect a
phone to this port.
– If you have a serial-type phone system, you might plug your phone directly to
the telephone wall jack.
3. Now you need to decide how you want the HP All-in-One to answer calls,
automatically or manually:
–
If you set up the HP All-in-One to answer calls automatically, it answers all
incoming calls and receives faxes. Your HP All-in-One will not be able to
distinguish between fax and voice calls in this case; if you suspect the call is
a voice call, you will need to answer it before the HP All-in-One answers the
call. To set up the HP All-in-One to answer calls automatically, change the
Auto Answer setting to On .
– If you set up the HP All-in-One to answer faxes manually, you must be
available to respond in person to incoming fax calls or your HP All-in-One
cannot receive faxes. To set up the HP All-in-One to answer calls manually,
change the
Auto Answer setting to Off .
For information on changing this setting, see Set the answer mode .
4. Run a fax test. For information, see Test your fax setup .
If you pick up the phone before the HP All-in-One answers the call and hear fax tones
from a sending fax machine, you will need to answer the fax call manually. For
information, see
Receive a fax manually .
Case F: Shared voice/fax line with voice mail
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you also
subscribe to a voice mail service through your telephone company, set up your HP All-
in-One as described in this section.
Note You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service
at the same phone number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes
manually; this means you must be available to respond in person to incoming
fax calls. If you want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your
telephone company to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a
separate phone line for faxing.
