Help with setting up Office fax and phone line

Please can someone help me ???

In the office I have a desktop pc which we run a broadband internet connection to , a KODAK all in one printer with fax..and I want to connect a landline ?

Where would I connect the land line to - have googled a bit and thought the answer was maybe to connect the phone line into the back of the KODAK printer but the phone connection does not fit there ?

I/m sure its easy but I can/t do it :(:(:(

    Maybe the exact printer model will help, though there should be a cable in the box

  • OK - its a KODAK2170 all in one .

    I have looked at the link above - I know I am probably being a bit stupid but should the phone be plugged into the modem or the pc ? I have the fax line up and running but just want to add a landline on the same number ?

    Thanks for any help :)

    Neither! If the Ext Out socket on the rear of the All-In-One is not suitable for your phone cable, then you need an adapter like this here to plug into your ADSL filter. Both the phone and the All-In-One plug into the adaptor.
