faxing from a DSL line

If you have a digital subscriber line (DSL) service through your phone company,
use the instructions in this section to connect a DSL filter between the telephone
wall jack and your HP Officejet. This filter removes the digital signal that would
block your HP Officejet from communicating properly with the telephone line.

Caution!

If you have a DSL line and you do not connect the DSL

filter, you will not be able to send and receive faxes with your
HP Officejet.

Caution!

If you do not use the supplied cord to connect from the

DSL filter to your HP Officejet, you may not be able to fax
successfully. If you live in one of the countries listed in the table on
page 119, you received a special 2-wire cord. This special 2-wire
cord is different from the more common 4-wire phone cords you
might already have in your office. For more information about how
to tell the difference between the cords, see

I have difficulties when

sending faxes and when receiving faxes

on page 146.
