fax setup
1 Using the phone cord supplied in the box with your HP PSC, 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 PSC.
Caution! If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the
telephone wall jack to your HP PSC, you might 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 145.
2 Remove the white plug from the port labeled “2-EXT” on the back of your
HP PSC, and then connect a phone to this port.
3 Change the Rings to Answer setting to No Answer using the instructions in
set up your hp psc to answer fax calls manually on page 60.
how to answer fax calls manually
You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or your
HP PSC cannot receive faxes. For information on how to receive fax calls
manually from your attached phone and from an extension phone, see receive a
fax manually on page 61.
case I: shared voice/fax line with PC modem and voicemail
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, use a
PC modem on the same phone line, and also subscribe to a voicemail service
through your phone company, connect your HP PSC as described in this section.
Note: The HP PSC cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a
voicemail service, therefore, you must be available to respond in person to
incoming fax calls manually. If you want to receive faxes automatically
instead, contact your phone company to subscribe to a distinctive ringing
service, or to obtain a separate phone line for faxing.
