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, lets 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.
