What type of telephone line are you using?

Dedicated line: A unique fax/telephone number assigned to receive or send faxes. The
fax cord should be connected to the device "line" port (the port that is marked with a

icon (HP LaserJet 3015 all-in-one or HP LaserJet 3030 all-in-one) or with an "L" (HP

LaserJet 3380 all-in-one)).

Shared telephone line: A system where both telephone calls and faxes are received or

sent by using the same telephone number and telephone line. A single, standard

telephone line can perform only one function at a time. You cannot send a fax while

talking on the telephone or while connecting to the Internet if you use the same

telephone line for telephone calls and fax jobs.

PBX system: A business-environment telephone system. Standard home telephones

and the HP LaserJet all-in-one devices use an analog telephone signal. Some PBX

systems are digital and might be incompatible with standard telephones and with

devices such as the HP LaserJet all-in-one.

Roll-over lines: A telephone system feature where, when one incoming line is busy, the

next call “rolls over” to the next available line. Try attaching the device to the first

incoming telephone line. The device will answer the telephone after it rings the number

of times that is specified in the device rings-to-answer setting. (See

Changing the rings-

to-answer setting

.)

Distinctive ring service: The telephone company can assign two telephone numbers to

one physical line and assign a distinctive ring pattern to each number. Make sure that

the device is set to respond to the correct distinctive ring pattern that your telephone

service provider assigned to the fax telephone number. (See

Changing ring patterns for

call answering

.) This service is not available in all regions/countries. Make sure that

your telephone company provides this service before changing the setting.
