How do I set up HP printers in digital phone

environments?

HP printers are designed specically for use with traditional analog phone

services. For a digital phone environment (such as DSL/ADSL, PBX, ISDN, or

FoIP), digital-to-analog lters or converters might be necessary when setting

up the printer for fax.
Note: Depending on the phone company, the printer might not

be compatible with all digital service lines or providers, in all digital
environments, or with all digital-to-analog converters. Contact the phone
company to determine which setup options are best.

Note: When setting up ring pattern detection in a PBX phone system that

has dierent ring patterns for internal and external calls, make sure to dial

the printer fax number using an external number for recording the ring
pattern.

• Solve problems

• Find advanced conguration instructions

• Download software updates

• Join support forums

• Find warranty and regulatory information

• Access mobile printing resources

Wireless network connection (wireless models)

• Verify that the network cable is not connected. The printer cannot connect to a
wireless network when a network cable is connected.

• Verify that the printer and wireless router are turned on and have power. Also
make sure the wireless switch is turned on.

• Verify that the printer is within the range of the wireless network. For most
networks, the printer must be within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point
(wireless router).

• Verify the print driver is installed on the computer.

• Verify that the computer and printer connect to the same wireless network.

• For Mac, verify that the wireless router supports Bonjour.

• Restart the wireless router.

Fax troubleshooting (fax models only)

Verify the physical connection

• Verify that the phone cord is connected to the fax port on the back of the
printer and to the wall jack.

• For an extension phone or other additional device, verify the phone cord is
connected to the telephone port on the back of the printer and to the device.

• If outgoing phone calls fail because no dial tone is detected or the line is busy,

connect to a dierent phone line.

• For Fax over IP service, reduce the Fax Speed, and turn o Error Correction
Mode from the Fax Settings menu on the printer control panel.

Verify the printer fax settings

• To use a voice-mail service from the phone company or service provider, make

sure that the printer Rings to Answer setting is set to be fewer rings than the
telephone answering machine.

• If multiple phone numbers are assigned to the same physical phone line and
the line is shared by multiple devices, make sure that the printer is set to the
correct distinctive ring setting. Use a setting in which the printer answers faxes
and ignores other ring types.

• Conguring the Fax Speed setting to Medium (V.17) or Slow (V.29) can also
improve your ability to send a fax.
