What Type Of Phone Line Are You Using; Are You Using A Phone-Line Splitter; Are You Using A Surge-Protection Device; Are You Using A Phone Company Voice-Messaging Service Or An Answering Machine - HP LaserJet 300 Manual De Instrucciones

What type of phone line are you using?

Roll-over lines can cause problems with the fax accessory's ability to
Note
receive faxes. Using roll-over lines with this product is not
recommended.

Are you using a phone-line splitter?

Parallel or "T" phone-line splitters should not be used with the fax
accessory because they can degrade the quality of the phone signal.

Are you using a surge-protection device?

A surge-protection device can be used between the wall jack and the
fax accessory to protect the fax accessory against electrical power
passed through the phone lines. These devices can cause some fax
communication problems by degrading the quality of the phone
signal. If you are having problems sending or receiving faxes and are
using one of these devices, connect the fax accessory directly to the
phone jack on the wall to determine whether the problem is with the
surge-protection device.
Are you using a phone company
voice-messaging service or an
answering machine?
If the rings-to-answer setting for the messaging service is lower than
the rings-to-answer setting for the fax accessory, the messaging
service answers the call, and the fax accessory is not able to receive
faxes. If the rings-to-answer setting for the fax accessory is lower
than that of the messaging service, the fax accessory answers all
calls, and no calls are routed to the messaging service.

Dedicated line: A standard fax/phone number assigned to
receive or send faxes.
PBX system: A business-environment phone system. Standard
home phones and the fax accessory use an analog phone signal.
Some PBX systems are digital and may not be compatible with
the fax accessory. You need to have access to a standard analog
phone line to be able to send and receive faxes.
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where a new call "rolls
over" to the next available line when the first incoming line is
busy. Try attaching the fax accessory to the first incoming phone
line. The fax accessory will answer the phone after it rings the
number of times set in the rings-to-answer setting. (See "Setting
rings-to-answer" on page 42.)
