• Connect your PC-modem to the Sony IJP-V100. Find the
phone cord that goes from the back of your computer (your PC-
modem) to a wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the wall Jack and
plug it into either of the two ports on the back of the Sony IJP-
V100 labelled, “To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem.”
Important: If your PC-modem’s software is set to automatically
receive faxes to your computer, turn off that setting; if you don’t,
your Sony IJP-V 100 will not be able to receive faxes properly.
• Connect your answering machine to the Sony UP-V100.
Connect the phone line from your answering machine to either of
the ports labelled, “To Phone, Answering Machine, or Modem” on
the back of the Sony IJP-V 100.
Important: Set your answering machine to answer calls after 4 or
fewer rings, and make sure your outgoing greeting message is no
longer than 30 seconds. If you don’t, you may not receive faxes
properly.
• Connect your phone to your answering machine. If your
answering machine doesn’t have an attached phone handset, con­
nect the cord from your phone to the back of your answering
machine.
The main benefits of connecting a phone in this situation are I) In
case you need to send a fax (press START) while having a conver­
sation with someone who must receive their faxes manually, and
2) For the convenience of having a phone close by to make and
receive voice calls.
