(also called a coupler). Refer to the Electronic Help for specific setup instructions.

7 Use the phone cord supplied in the box with the HP Photosmart to connect to the "1-LINE"

port

To set up the product on the same phone line as a computer with two phone ports

Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the product.

Find the phone cord that connects from the back of your computer (your computer
dial-up modem) to a telephone wall jack. Disconnect the cord from the telephone wall
jack and plug it into the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the product.

Unplug your answering machine from the telephone wall jack, and connect it to the
“OUT” port on the back of your computer modem.
This allows a direct connection between the HP Photosmart and your answering
machine, even though the computer modem is connected first in line.

NOTE:

If you do not connect your answering machine in this way, fax tones from

a sending fax machine might be recorded on your answering machine, and you
might not be able to receive faxes with the product.
