Case F: Shared voice/fax line with voice mail
If you receive both voice calls and fax calls at the same phone number, and you also
subscribe to a voice mail service through your telephone company, set up your HP All-
in-One as described in this section.
Note
You cannot receive faxes automatically if you have a voice mail service
at the same phone number you use for fax calls. You must receive faxes
manually; this means you must be available to respond in person to incoming
fax calls. If you want to receive faxes automatically instead, contact your
telephone company to subscribe to a distinctive ring service, or to obtain a
separate phone line for faxing.
