Connecting To An Analog Telephone Line; Connecting To A Dsl Service - Lexmark X925 User Manual

Notes:
•
The printer is an analog device that works best when directly connected to the wall outlet. Other equipment
(such as a telephone or answering machine) can be successfully attached to pass through the printer, as described
in the setup steps.
•
If you want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL, then a third-party device (such as a DSL filter) is
required. Contact your DSL provider for a DSL filter. The DSL filter removes the digital signal on the telephone
line that can interfere with the ability of the printer to fax properly.
•
You do not need to attach the printer to a computer, but you do need to connect it to an analog telephone line
to send and receive faxes.
