Connecting a Telephone Line

This section describes how to connect a telephone cable for fax transmissions.

The telephone line connection method varies depending on your environment. Connect the telephone cable that suits your environment by referring to the illustrations in this manual.

Note

  • Always use the telephone cable which comes with the machine. Using another telephone cable may cause a malfunction.

  • If a fax transmission or reception fails, set [Super G3] to [OFF].

  • You cannot connect an ISDN line directly. To connect, use a terminal adapter (TA) and connect to the LINE connector of the machine.

  1. Plug one end of the included telephone cable (a) into the LINE connector (b) of the machine and the other end into a public line (analog) (c).

    Note

    A telephone that is connected to the machine is called an external telephone.

    Note

    • Only one telephone can be connected to the machine.

    • Do not connect the telephone to the machine in parallel. If you connect the telephone to the machine in parallel, the following problems occur, resulting in the machine not functioning correctly.

      • If you pick up the handset of the telephone that is connected in parallel while the machine is sending or receiving a fax, the fax image may be corrupted or a communication error may occur.

      • If the incoming call is a voice call, the telephone may ring late or stop halfway, and if the incoming call is a fax, the machine may not be able to receive the fax.

    • If you connect a telephone with the fax function, disable the fax function of the telephone (disable fax reception) before using.
