Connecting additional equipment
Remove the white plug from the port labeled 2-EXT on the back of the printer, and
then connect a phone to this port.
If you are connecting additional equipment, such as a dial-up computer
modem or a telephone, you will need to purchase a parallel splitter. A
parallel splitter has one RJ- 1 1 port on the front and two RJ- 1 1 ports on the
back. Do not use a 2–line phone splitter, a serial splitter, or a parallel
splitter which has two RJ- 1 1 ports on the front and a plug on the back.
Note: If you subscribe to a DSL/ADSL service, connect to the DSL/ADSL filter to the
parallel splitter, and then use the HP-provided telephone cord to connect the other
end of the filter to the 1-Line port on the printer. Remove the white plug from the port
labeled 2-EXT on the back of the printer, and then connect a telephone set or telephone
answering machine to the 2-EXT port. Next, connect the second port of the parallel
splitter to the DSL/ADSL modem which is connecting to the computer.

connected to the printer
• Checks that the phone cord is plugged
into the correct port

how to fix the problem and rerun the test.
For additional troubleshooting
information, see "Problems setting up the
printer" on page 22.
