case H: shared voice/fax line with voice mail
Note: The HP Officejet cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a
voice mail service, so you must be available to respond in person (manually)
to incoming fax calls. If you want to receive faxes automatically instead,
contact your phone company to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to
obtain a separate phone line for faxing.
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 phone company, connect
your HP Officejet as described in this section.
1 Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP Officejet, 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 Officejet.
Caution! If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the
telephone wall jack to your HP Officejet, you probably will not be
able to fax successfully. This special 2-wire cord is different from
the more common 4-wire phone cords you might already have in
your office. For more information about how to tell the difference
between the cords, see
I have difficulties when sending faxes and
when receiving faxes on page 146.
2 Remove the white plug from the port labeled “2-EXT” on the back of your
HP Officejet, and then connect a phone to this port.
3 Press the Answer Mode button on the front panel until TEL appears on the
display.
how to answer fax calls manually
You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or your
HP Officejet cannot receive faxes. For information about how to receive fax calls
manually from your attached phone and from an extension phone, see
