Setting up your All-In-One  
Set up the All-In-One  
Multiple methods of setup are possible with the All-In-One you have  
purchased. The Setup sheet that came with your All-In-One provides basic  
setup instructions. However, you can also connect your All-In-One with  
equipment, such as a telephone, an answering machine, or a computer  
modem.  
Note: The X6100 Series All-In-One is an analog device that  
works best when directly connected to the wall jack.  
Other devices (such as a telephone or answering  
machine) can be successfully attached to pass through  
the All-In-One, as described in the setup steps. If you  
want a digital connection such as ISDN, DSL, or ADSL,  
a third party device is required.

Preserve the print cartridges  
To ensure the longest life from your print cartridges and optimum  
performance from your All-In-One:  
Keep a new print cartridge in its packaging until you are ready to  
install it.  
Do not remove a print cartridge from the All-In-One except to  
replace, clean, or store it in an airtight container. The print  
cartridges do not print correctly if left exposed for an extended  
period because the ink dries.  
Lexmarks warranty does not cover repair of failures or damage caused by  
a refilled cartridge. We do not recommend use of refilled cartridges.  
Refilling cartridges can affect print quality and cause damage to the  
All-In-One. For best results, use Lexmark supplies.  
Clean the scanner glass  
Clean the scanner glass when ink smudges, fingerprints, or dirt are  
apparent.  
To clean:  
Dampen a clean, lint-free cloth with a non-abrasive cleaning  
solvent.  
Gently wipe the scanner glass clean.  
Note: Make sure all ink or corrective fluid on the document is  
dry before placing the document on the scanner glass.

Using an unsupported line  
The fax modem in your AIO is an analog device and cannot be used on an  
ISDN, DSL, or PBX digital phone service. However, you can connect  
certain devices to your AIO that let you use the fax function in addition to  
these digital phone services.  
To connect without an unsupported line:  
Connect an active telephone cable from the AIO to the telephone wall jack.  
To connect with an unsupported line:  
If you use an ISDN phone service, you can connect to an analog  
telephone port (an R-interface port) on an ISDN terminal adapter.  
For more help and to request an R-interface port, contact the ISDN  
provider.  
If you use a DSL (Digital Subscriber Line) phone service, you can  
connect to a DSL filter or router that will allow for some analog  
(rather than digital) use.  
If you use a PBX phone service, you can install an analog phone  
line for a fax machine.
