how your hp officejet will answer fax calls
The HP Officejet automatically answers all incoming calls based on the 
Rings to Answer setting. If the call is a fax call, the HP Officejet will receive 
the fax. 
If the call is a voice call, the HP Officejet will create a special ring to 
indicate it is a voice call. You will need to answer the incoming voice call 
using the attached handset. You should not answer voice calls from other 
telephones on the line. The device cannot tell that you picked up the 
extension phone and will keep ringing. You will have to press Cancel on 
the HP Officejet to stop the ringing.
case D: fax line shared with PC modem (no voice calls 
received)
If you have a fax line on which you receive no voice calls, and you also have a 
PC modem connected on this line, connect your HP Officejet as described in this 
section.
Note:
Since your PC modem shares the telephone line with your 
HP Officejet, you will not be able to use both your PC modem and your 
HP Officejet simultaneously. For example, while you are sending and 
receiving faxes, you will not be able to e-mail or access the Internet.
