Are you using a telephone-line splitter?

A telephone-line splitter is a device used to split two or more telephone lines from the same

jack. Confusion can result from the existence of two different kinds of splitters. Parallel

splitters (also called “T” splitters) split a single line into two equal jacks, allowing two devices

to be plugged into the same line.
Line1/Line 2 splitters provide two unique telephone line outlets from a single jack with two

unique telephone numbers (two telephone lines are connected to a single jack). A Line1/

Line2 splitter must be used if you have a fax line and a voice line that are controlled by the

same jack. See

for

instructions.
Not all splitters are compatible with the device, and not all regions/countries support the use

of splitters.

Note

Hewlett-Packard does not recommend using parallel, or “T”, splitters with the device,

because they can degrade the quality of the telephone signal. If you need to attach a

second device to the telephone line along with the device, plug the second device into the

device “telephone” port (the port that is marked with a telephone icon). See
