Scenario 4: Digital telephone service through a cable provider

Setup 1: Printer is connected directly to a cable modem

Follow this setup if you normally connect your telephone to a cable modem.

To connect:

1

Connect one end of a telephone cable to the port of the printer.

2

Connect the other end of the cable to the port labeled Phone Line 1 or Phone Port on the cable modem.

The port labeled Phone Line 2 or Fax Port is not always active. You may need to pay extra to your cable provider if
you want to activate the second phone port.

3

Remove the protective plug from the

port of the printer, and then connect the telephone to the port.

Tips for this setup:

•

To make sure that the phone port on the cable modem is active, plug an analog telephone into the phone port, and
then listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, then the port is active.

•

If you need two phone ports for your devices but do not want to pay extra, then do not plug the printer into the
second phone port. You can use a phone splitter. Plug the phone splitter into the Phone Line 1 or Phone Port , and
then plug the printer and telephone into the splitter.

Make sure you use a phone splitter, not a line splitter. To make sure that you are using the correct splitter, plug an
analog telephone into the splitter and then listen for a dial tone.
