(DSL might be called ADSL in your country/region.)

PBX: A private branch exchange (PBX) phone system.

ISDN: An integrated services digital network (ISDN) system.

HP printers are designed specifically for use with traditional analog phone services. If
you are in a digital phone environment (such as DSL/ADSL, PBX, or ISDN), you might
need to use digital-to-analog filters or converters when setting up the printer for faxing.

NOTE: HP does not guarantee that the printer will be compatible with all digital
service lines or providers, in all digital environments, or with all digital-to-analog
converters. It is always recommended that you discuss with the telephone company
directly for the correct setup options based on their line services provided.
