Basic operation
Attaching an optional handset
You may purchase an optional handset for your fax machine. Here is how to attach
the handset.
1
Using a Phillips-head screwdriver, attach the handset cradle to the left
side of your machine, using the screws included with the cradle.
2
Plug one end of the handset cord (it’s curled) into the
PHONE
1 jack on the rear
side of your machine.
3
Plug the other end of the handset cord into the jack on the handset. If con-
nected to a phone line, your fax machine is now “off-hook.”
Note: The handset has a small “flash” button which you can press while
holding the handset, putting the fax machine back “on-hook” until you
can hang up the handset properly in step 4.
4
Place the telephone handset onto the handset cradle. The cradle will press the
handset’s “flash” button, hanging up the handset.
Attaching a second phone
Want to attach a second phone (even a cordless model!) to your fax machine, so they
can share the same phone jack? No problem.
Before we go further, let’s explain the idea. You’re plugging the second phone’s
phone line into your machine’s
PHONE
2 jack, not the wall phone jack. In such a
setup, only your machine connects to the wall. The second phone receives phone sig-
nals through your machine.
Now, let’s proceed…
1
If your second phone is already plugged into a wall phone jack, disconnect it
from that jack. Hold onto the phone plug; you’ll need it in step 2.
Note: Of course, if your second phone is a model which requires
AC
power, as
is true for the base of a cordless phone, don’t unplug it from its
AC
power jack!
2
Using the plug mentioned in step 1, plug the phone cable from your second
phone into the
PHONE
2 jack on the left side of your fax machine.
