HP Officejet 6500 - Manual (Page 109)

TIP: You can also use the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or HP Fax Setup Utility (Mac
OS X) to help you quickly set up some important fax settings such as the answer
mode and fax header information. You can access the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows)
or HP Fax Setup Utility (Mac OS X) through the software you installed with the device.
After you run the Fax Setup Wizard (Windows) or HP Fax Setup Utility (Mac OS X),
follow the procedures in this section to complete your fax setup.
This section contains the following topics:
• Set up faxing (parallel phone systems)
• Serial-type fax setup
Set up faxing (parallel phone systems)
Before you begin setting up the device for faxing, determine which kind of phone system
your country/region uses. The instructions for fax setup differ depending on whether you
have a serial- or parallel-type phone system.
•
If you do not see your country/region listed in the table below, you probably have a
serial-type phone system. In a serial-type phone system, the connector type on your
shared telephone equipment (modems, phones, and answering machines) does not
allow a physical connection to the "2-EXT" port on the device. Instead, all equipment
must be connected at the telephone wall jack.
NOTE: In some countries/regions that use serial-type phone systems, the phone
cord that came with the device 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 device.
You might need to connect the supplied phone cord to the adapter provided for
your country/region.
• If your country/region is listed in the table below, 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
device.
NOTE: If you have a parallel-type phone system, HP recommends you use the
2-wire phone cord supplied with the device to connect it to the telephone wall jack.
