Owners manual

NOTE: In some countries/regions that use serial-type phone systems, the phone cord that came with
the printer might have an additional wall plug attached to it. This enables you to connect other telecom
devices to the wall jack where you plug in the printer.
You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for your country/region.
●
If your country/region is listed, you probably have a parallel-type telephone system. In a parallel-type
phone system, you are able to connect shared telephone equipment to the phone line by using the "2-
EXT" port on the back of the printer.
NOTE: If you have a parallel-type phone system, HP recommends you use the 2-wire phone cord
supplied with the printer to connect it to the telephone wall jack.
If you are unsure which kind of telephone system you have (serial or parallel), check with your telephone
company.

Select the correct fax setup for your home or office
To fax successfully, you need to know what types of equipment and services (if any) share the same phone
line with the printer. This is important because you might need to connect some of your existing office
equipment directly to the printer, and you might also need to change some fax settings before you can fax
successfully.
