The Printing Mailbox can share the phone jack with your regular telephone.

Our customers tell us simplicity is what makes Presto so special. Because Presto and the Printing Mailbox is a receive-only email service, users do not have the cost and hassles of a computer and Internet account, and do not need to learn to send email or use a keyboard. Most recipients respond to Presto email the way they're most comfortable—with a phone call. Presto makes this easy to do by printing the sender's telephone number on each email we deliver.

Plain 8 1/2 x 11-inch paper is all that's required. The paper tray holds up to 50 sheets—and loading paper takes just seconds. A sample supply of paper is included with the Printing Mailbox. No expensive photo paper is required. The Printing Mailbox comes with an HP 95 Tri-Color Print Cartridge. You can use either an HP 95 or an HP 97 Tri-Color Print Cartridge. These standard print cartridges are available through Presto or at most electronics and office-supply stores.

Step 2—Tap a stack of 8.5 x 11-inch paper (up to 50 pages) on a flat surface to align the edges. Step 3—Insert the stack of paper into the tray and slide it forward until it stops as indicated below. Step 4—Close the top cover. Note: If the paper light continues to blink, check that the top cover is closed properly.
