7. CONNECTING TO A TELEPHONE LINE
If you plan to use a single telephone line connection follow the
instructions below. This is straightforward if your telephone receiver
is connected using modular telephone jacks.
1) Plug one end of the telephone line cord into the back of the fax
machine. Use the TEL LINE socket located farthest to the left.
2) Plug the other end of the cord into the telephone wall jack
socket. Make sure this end clicks into place.
Jacks
If you have the older 4-prong telephone wall jack, you must use a
modular 4-prong adapter (USOC RJAIX). Plug the adapter into the
wall jack and then plug the telephone cord into the adapter, as
shown in the illustration below.
Multi Line Connections
(PBXs)
Most offices use a central telephone system. While it is often
relatively simple to connect the machine to a key system or a PBX
(private branch exchange), we suggest that you contact the company
which installed your telephone system and ask them to connect the
fax machine for you.
It is advisable to have a separate line for the fax machine. You can
then leave the machine in AUTO ANSWER mode to receive faxes
at any time of the day or night.
If the fax machine is to be connected to a multi-line system, ask your
installer to connect the unit to the last line on the system. This will
prevent the unit from being activated each time a telephone call is
received.
