If you have a separate phone line on which you receive no voice calls, and you have no
other equipment connected on this phone line, set up the HP All-in-One as described in
this section.

To set up the HP All-in-One with a separate fax line

1.

Using the phone cord supplied in the box with the HP All-in-One, connect one end to
your telephone wall jack, then connect the other end to the port labeled 1-LINE on
the back of the HP All-in-One.

NOTE:

If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the telephone wall

jack to the HP All-in-One, 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 on the Auto Answer setting.

3.

(Optional) Change the Rings to Answer setting to the lowest setting (two rings).

4.

Run a fax test.

When the phone rings, the HP All-in-One will answer automatically after the number of
rings you set in the Rings to Answer setting. Then it will begin emitting fax reception
tones to the sending fax machine and receive the fax.
