Step 2: Determine the type of phone line (dedicated or
shared)
If you have determined that you use a parallel-type
phone system, determine if the HP Officejet/Officejet
Pro device will have its own phone line (dedicated
phone line) or if it will share the phone line with another
device (shared phone line).
If you are going to connect another device to the
HP Officejet/Officejet Pro device, you will need to
change settings such as how many rings to allow before
picking up, whether you have a distinctive ring service,
and whether to automatically answer the phone line.
NOTE:
You cannot receive faxes automatically if you
have a voice mail service at the same phone number
you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes manually;
this means you must be available to respond in person
to incoming fax calls. If you want to receive faxes
automatically instead, contact your telephone company
to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a
separate phone line for faxing.
To change the Auto Answer setting, see the electronic
user guide available on the computer after installing the
software.

Dedicated phone line
Use this section if you plan on using the following type
of phone line for the fax:

Dedicated phone line without devices sharing the
line but with a subscription to a distinctive ring
service.
•
Private Branch Exchange (PBX) or an Integrated
Services Digital Network (ISDN) line. For more
information about PBX and ISDN lines, see the
electronic user guide available on the computer

Unplug any telephone devices from the phone jack
