HP (Hewlett-Packard) C7100 All in One Printer User Manual


 
There are two different ways to set the HP All-in-One 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), as shown below. (A parallel splitter has one RJ-11 port on
the front and two RJ-11 ports on the back. Do not use a 2-line phone splitter, a serial
splitter, or a parallel splitter which has two RJ-11 ports on the front and a plug on
the back.)
Example of a parallel splitter
If your computer has two phone ports, set up the HP All-in-One as described below.

To set up the HP All-in-One 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 HP All-in-
One.
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 HP All-in-One.
