HP C309 - Manual (Page 34)

There are two different ways to set up the HP Photosmart 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). Refer to the Electronic Help for specific setup instructions.
• If your computer has two phone ports, set up the HP Photosmart as described below.

port
To set up the product on the same phone line as a computer with two phone ports
1. Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the product.
2. Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your computer
dial-up modem) to a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone wall
jack and plug it into the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the product.
3. Connect a phone to the "OUT" port on the back of your computer dial-up modem.
4. Using the phone cord supplied in the box with the product, connect one end to your
telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back
of the product.
NOTE: If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall
jack to the product, 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.
