Select the correct fax setup for your home or office
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any) share the
same phone line with the printer. This is important because you might need to connect some of
your existing office equipment directly to the printer, and you might also need to change some fax
settings before you can fax successfully.
1. Determine if your telephone system is serial or parallel. See
Set up faxing (parallel phone
systems).
a. Serial-type telephone system—See Serial-type fax setup.
b. Parallel-type telephone system—Go to step 2.
2. Select the combination of equipment and services sharing your fax line.
DSL: A Digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your telephone company. (DSL
might be called ADSL in your country/region.)
PBX: A private branch exchange (PBX) phone system or an integrated services digital
network (ISDN) system.
Distinctive ring service: A distinctive ring service through your telephone company
provides multiple telephone numbers with different ring patterns.
Voice calls: Voice calls are received at the same phone number you use for fax calls on
the printer.
Computer dial-up modem: A computer dial-up modem is on the same phone line as the
printer. If you answer Yes to any of the following questions, you are using a computer
dial-up modem:
Do you send and receive faxes directly to and from your computer software
applications through a dial-up connection?
Do you send and receive email messages on your computer through a dial-up
connection?
Do you access the Internet from your computer through a dial-up connection?
