Connecting to a Phone Line

Compatible Telephone Lines

You can use the printer over standard analogue telephone lines (PSTN = Public Switched Telephone Network) and
PBX (Private Branch Exchange) telephone systems.

You may not be able to use the printer with the following phone lines or systems.

❏ VoIP phone line such as DSL or fiber-optic digital service
❏ Digital phone line (ISDN)
❏ Some PBX telephone systems
❏ When adapters such as terminal adapters, VoIP adapters, splitters, or DSL router are connected between the

telephone wall jack and the printer

Connecting the Printer to a Phone Line

Connect the printer to a telephone wall jack using an RJ-11 (6P2C) phone cable. When connecting a telephone to
the printer, use a second RJ-11 (6P2C) phone cable.

Depending on the area, a phone cable may be included with the printer. If it is included, use that cable.

You may need to connect the phone cable to an adapter provided for your country or region.

Important:

Remove the cap from the EXT. port of the printer only when connecting your telephone to the printer. Do not
remove the cap if you are not connecting your telephone.

In areas where lightning strikes occur frequently, we recommend that you use a surge protector.
