Faxing Choosing a fax connection To determine the best way to set up the scanner, see the following table. Notes: • The scanner is an analog device that works best when directly connected to the wall outlet. • If you want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL, then a third-party device (such as a DSL filter) is required.
Faxing Connecting to a DSL service If you subscribe to a DSL service, then contact the DSL provider to obtain a DSL filter and telephone cord, and then follow these steps to connect the equipment: Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the scanner to the scanner LINE port . Connect the other end of the telephone cable to the DSL filter.
Faxing Connecting to a distinctive ring service A distinctive ring service may be available from your telephone service provider. This service allows you to have multiple telephone numbers on one telephone line, with each telephone number having a different ring pattern. This may be useful for distinguishing between fax and voice calls.
Faxing For some countries or regions, a telephone line adapter is included in the box. Use this adapter to connect an answering machine, telephone, or other telecommunications equipment to the printer. Connect one end of the telephone cable that came with the scanner to the scanner LINE port Connect the other end of the telephone cable to the adapter, and then connect the adapter to the active telephone wall jack.
