To set up the printer with voice mail
1. Using the phone cord supplied in the box with the printer, connect one end to your telephone
wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on the back of the printer.
You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your country/
region.
NOTE: You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your
country/region.
If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall jack to the printer, 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.
2. Turn off the Auto Answer setting.
3. Run a fax test.
You must be available to respond in person to incoming fax calls, or the printer cannot receive faxes.
You must initiate the manual fax before voicemail picks up the line.
If you encounter problems setting up the printer with optional equipment, contact your local service
provider or vendor for further assistance.
Case G: Fax line shared with computer modem (no voice calls received)
If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a computer modem
connected on this line, set up the printer as described in this section.
NOTE: If you have a computer dial-up modem, your computer dial-up modem shares the phone line
with the printer. You cannot use both your modem and the printer simultaneously. For example, you
cannot use the printer for faxing while you are using your computer dial-up modem to send an email
or access the Internet.
