Scenario 4: Digital telephone service through a cable provider
Setup 1: Printer is connected directly to a cable modem
Follow this setup if you normally connect your telephone to a cable modem.
Tips for this setup:
•
Connect the printer to the port labeled
Phone Line 1
or
Phone Port
on the cable modem. The port labeled
Phone Line 2
or
Fax Port
is not always active. You may need to pay extra to your cable provider if you want to
activate the second phone port.
•
To make sure that the phone port on the cable modem is active, plug an analog telephone into the phone port,
and then listen for a dial tone. If you hear a dial tone, then the port is active.
•
If you need two phone ports for your devices but do not want to pay extra, then do not plug the printer into the
second phone port. You can use a phone splitter. Plug the phone splitter into the
Phone Line 1
or
Phone
Port
, and then plug the printer and telephone into the splitter.
Note:
Make sure you use a phone splitter,
not
a line splitter. To make sure that you are using the correct splitter,
plug an analog telephone into the splitter and then listen for a dial tone.
