Connecting Various Lines

If the connection is incorrect, the machine cannot send/receive faxes. Connect the machine correctly.

Important

Do not connect fax machines and/or telephones in parallel (US and Canada only).

If two or more fax machines and/or telephones are connected in parallel, the following problems may

occur and the machine may not operate properly.

If you pick up the handset of the telephone that is connected in parallel during fax transmission

or reception, the fax image may be corrupted or a communication error may occur.

Such services as Caller ID, etc. may not operate properly on the telephone.

If you cannot avoid parallel connections, set the receive mode to TEL priority mode, understanding

that the above problems may occur. You will only be able to receive faxes manually.

Basic Connection

Make sure that the machine is turned off, connect one end of supplied telephone line cable to the

telephone line jack near the "LINE" mark of the machine, then connect the other end to the telephone line

jack on the wall or to the telephone line jack of the xDSL splitter.

When you connect the telephone to the machine, make sure that the machine is turned off, connect one

end of the modular cable to the external device jack near the "EXT." mark of the machine, then connect the

other end to the telephone line jack of the telephone.

Important

Be sure to connect the telephone line before the machine is turned on.

If you connect the telephone line when the machine is turned on, turn the machine off and disconnect

the power plug. Wait for 1 minute then connect the telephone line and power plug.

Note

Refer to Rear View for the position of the telephone line jack and the external device jack.

adapter to the external device jack.
