Title: Cordless Phone Users Beware this All in One
Review: I just purchased the MP830, replacing an old HP Officejet T45. I have one phone line in the house, and a cordless phone base station connected to the MP830 for use in my office. When the home phone rings with ANY VOICE CALL, you HAVE TO ANSWER IT ON THE PHONE CONNECTED TO THE MP830 or else the MP830 continues to ring and click over the phone line then picks up and starts a handshake over your conversation. You can only use one base station in the house, and it MUST be the one with the answering machine, and it must be connected to the MP830. Tech service says the only solution is to set the fax to Manual so it doesn't answer, or purchase the DRPD service from your phone company. My 7 year old HP answered automatically with no intervention, and picked up faxes automatically regardless of whether the answering machine had them or if someone physically answered.
