Print to the standard output bin
The standard output bin collects paper face-down, in the correct order. Use this bin for most print jobs,
including transparencies. To use the standard output bin, be sure that the rear output bin is closed. To
avoid jams, do not open or close the rear output bin while the product is printing.
The standard output bin holds up to 250 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) paper.
Print to the rear output bin
The product always prints to the rear output bin if it is open. Paper that is printed to this bin will exit
face-up, with the last page on top (reverse order).
The rear output bin holds up to 50 sheets of 75 g/m
2
(20 lb) paper.
Printing from Tray 1 to the rear output bin provides the straightest path. Opening the rear output bin
might improve performance with the following items:

(32 lb)
To open the rear output bin, grasp the handle at the top of the bin. Pull the bin down to a 45° angle,

HP policy on non-HP supplies
Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of non-HP toner cartridges, either new or
remanufactured.
NOTE: For HP printer products, the use of a non-HP toner cartridge or a refilled toner cartridge does
not affect either the warranty to the customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However, if
product failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP toner cartridge or refilled toner
cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to service the product for the
particular failure or damage.
ENWW HP policy on non-HP supplies 27
HP anticounterfeit Web site
Go to www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit when you install an HP toner cartridge and the control-panel
message says the cartridge is non-HP. HP will help determine if the cartridge is genuine and take steps
to resolve the problem.

The supplies status page indicates that a non-HP supply is installed.
You are experiencing a high number of problems with the toner cartridge.
The cartridge does not look like it usually does (for example, the packaging differs from
HP packaging).

Print when a toner cartridge is at estimated end of
life
Black cartridge is low: The product indicates when a toner cartridge level is low. Actual toner
cartridge life remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print
quality is no longer acceptable. The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now.
Black cartridge is very low: The product indicates when the toner cartridge level is very low.
Actual toner cartridge life remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install
when print quality is no longer acceptable. The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now
unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.
Once an HP toner cartridge has reached “very low”, HP’s Premium Protection Warranty on that toner
cartridge has ended.
You can change the way the product reacts when supplies reach the Very Low state. You do not have
to re-establish these settings when you install a new toner cartridge.

You can enable or disable the default settings at any time, and you do not have to re-enable them
when you install a new toner cartridge.

prompt you to replace the toner cartridge. You can acknowledge the prompt and continue
printing. A customer configurable option on this product is "Prompt to Remind Me in 100
pages, 200 pages, 300 pages, 400 pages, or never." This option is provided as a customer
convenience and is not an indication these pages will have acceptable print quality.
When the product is set to the Stop option, there is some risk that faxes will not print after the new
cartridge is installed if your product has received more faxes than the memory can hold while stopped.
ENWW Print when a toner cartridge is at estimated end of life 29
When the product is set to the Prompt option, there is some risk that faxes will not print after the new
cartridge is installed if your product has received more faxes than the memory can hold while the
product is waiting for the prompt to be acknowledged.
Once an HP toner cartridge has reached Very Low, HP’s Premium Protection Warranty on that toner
cartridge has ended. All print defects or cartridge failures incurred when an HP toner cartridge is used
in Continue at very low mode will not be considered to be defects in materials or workmanship in the
toner cartridge under the HP Toner Cartridge Warranty Statement.

HP Universal Print Driver (UPD)
The HP Universal Print Driver (UPD) for Windows is a single print driver that gives you instant access to
virtually any HP LaserJet product, from any location, without downloading separate drivers. It is built on
proven HP print driver technology and has been tested thoroughly and used with many software
programs. It is a powerful solution that performs consistently over time.
40 Chapter 4 Print ENWW
The HP UPD communicates directly with each HP product, gathers configuration information, and then
customizes the user interface to show the product’s unique, available features. It automatically enables
features that are available for the product, such as two-sided printing and stapling, so you do not need
to enable them manually.
For more information, go to www.hp.com/go/upd.
UPD installation modes
Traditional mode To use this mode, download UPD from the Internet. Go to www.hp.com/go/
upd.
Use this mode if you are installing the driver for a single computer.
It operates with a specific product.
If you use this mode, you must install UPD separately for each computer and
for each product.
Dynamic mode To use this mode, download UPD from the Internet. Go to www.hp.com/go/
upd.
Dynamic mode allows you to use a single driver installation, so you can
discover and print to multiple networked HP products in any location.
Use this mode if you are installing UPD for a workgroup.
Do not use this mode for USB-connected products.

Scan by using other software
If you install the full product software, the product is TWAIN-compliant and Windows Imaging
Application (WIA)-compliant. If you install the minimum product software, the product is WIA-compliant.
The product works with Windows-based programs that support TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant
scanning devices.
While you are in a TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant program, you can gain access to the scanning
feature and scan an image directly into the open program. For more information, see the Help file or
the documentation that came with your TWAIN-compliant or WIA-compliant software program.
Scan from a TWAIN-compliant program (Windows)
Generally, a software program is TWAIN-compliant if it has a command such as Acquire, File
Acquire, Scan, Import New Object, Insert from, or Scanner. If you are unsure whether the
program is compliant or you do not know what the command is called, see the software program Help
or documentation.
When scanning from a TWAIN-compliant program, the HP Scan software program might start
automatically. If the HP Scan program starts, you can make changes while previewing the image. If the
program does not start automatically, the image goes to the TWAIN-compliant program immediately.
Start the scan from within the TWAIN-compliant program. See the software program Help or
documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
Scan from a WIA-compliant program (Windows)
WIA is another way to scan an image directly into a software program. WIA uses Microsoft software
to scan, instead of the HP Scan software.
Generally, a software program is WIA-compliant if it has a command such as Picture/From
Scanner or Camera in the Insert or File menu. If you are unsure whether the program is WIA-
compliant, see the software program Help or documentation.
Start the scan from within the WIA-compliant program. See the software program Help or
documentation for information about the commands and steps to use.
-Or-
From the Windows control panel, in the Cameras and Scanner folder (located inside the
Hardware and Sound folder for Windows Vista and Windows 7), double-click the product icon.
This opens the standard Microsoft WIA Wizard, which enables you to scan to a file.

Use fax on a DSL, PBX, or ISDN system
HP products are designed specifically for use with traditional analog phone services. They are not
designed to work on DSL, PBX, ISDN lines, or VoIP services, but they work with the proper setup and
equipment.
NOTE: HP recommends discussing DSL, PBX, ISDN, and VoIP setup options with the service provider.
The HP LaserJet product is an analog device that is not compatible with all digital phone environments
(unless a digital-to-analog converter is used). HP does not guarantee that the product will be compatible
with digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.
DSL
A digital subscriber line (DSL) uses digital technology over standard copper telephone wires. This
product is not directly compatible with those digital signals. However, if the configuration is specified
ENWW Use fax 129
during DSL setup, the signal can be separated so that some of the bandwidth is used to transmit an
analog signal (for voice and fax) while the remaining bandwidth is used to transmit digital data.
NOTE: Not all faxes are compatible with DSL services. HP does not guarantee that the product will
be compatible with all DSL service lines or providers.
A typical DSL modem employs a filter to separate the higher frequency DSL modem communication
from lower frequency analog phone and fax modem communication. It is often necessary to use a filter
with analog phones and analog fax products that are connected to a telephone line used by a DSL
modem. The DSL service provider usually provides this filter. Contact the DSL provider for more
information or for assistance.
PBX
The product is an analog device that is not compatible in all digital phone environments. Digital-to-
analog filters or converters may be needed for faxing functionality. If faxing issues occur in a PBX
environment, it might be necessary to contact the PBX provider for assistance. HP does not guarantee
that the product will be compatible with digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.
Contact the PBX provider for more information and for assistance.
ISDN
The product is an analog device that is not compatible in all digital phone environments. Digital-to-
analog filters or converters may be needed for faxing functionality. If faxing issues occur in an ISDN
environment, it might be necessary to contact the ISDN provider for assistance. HP does not guarantee
that the product will be compatible with ISDN digital environments or digital-to-analog converters.
Use fax on a VoIP service
Voice over internet protocol (VoIP) services are often not compatible with fax machines unless the
provider explicitly states that it supports fax over IP services.
If the product experiences problems getting a fax to work on a VoIP network, verify that all cables and
settings are correct. Decreasing the fax-speed setting might allow the product to send a fax over a VoIP
network.
If the VoIP provider offers a "Pass through" mode for the connection, that will offer better fax
performance on VoIP. Also if the provider has "comfort noise" added to the line, fax performance can
be enhanced if this feature is not enabled.
If faxing problems continue, contact the VoIP provider.
Fax memory contents are retained when there is a loss of power
The flash memory protects against data loss when a power failure occurs. Other fax devices store fax
pages in either normal RAM or short-term RAM. Normal RAM immediately loses data when power is
lost, while short-term RAM loses data about 60 minutes after a power failure occurs. Flash memory can
maintain its data for years without power applied.

Schedule a fax to be sent later
Use the product control panel to schedule a fax to be sent automatically at a future time to one or more
people. When this procedure is completed, the product scans the document into memory and then
returns to the Ready state.
NOTE: If the product cannot transmit the fax at the scheduled time, that information is indicated on
the fax error report (if that option is turned on) or recorded in the fax activity log. The transmittal might
not be initiated because the fax-sending call is not answered, or because a busy signal stops the redial
attempts.
If a fax has been scheduled to be sent at a future time but it requires updating, send the additional
information as another job. All faxes that are scheduled to go to the same fax number at the same time
are delivered as individual faxes.
