Print by email
After you have enabled Web Services, you can print to your printer by email. You can find the printer's email
address from the front panel: press , then . Then send the file you want to print to that email
address as an attachment.
In this way, you can print from anywhere with an Internet connection, without needing any printer driver.
There are a few limitations that you should bear in mind:
●
The attached files to be printed must be in PDF, JPEG, or TIFF formats.
●
The maximum file size is 10 MB, but your email server may have a lower limit.
●
Files are printed in the original document size (at 100% scale), in normal quality, in color, and normally
in portrait orientation (some printers may offer autorotation)..
Print from a computer using a printer driver
This is the traditional way of printing from a computer. The correct printer driver must be installed on the
computer, and the computer must be connected to the printer by network.
When the printer driver has been installed and the computer is connected to the printer, you can print from a
software application by using the application's own Print command and selecting the correct printer.
NOTE: When first printing, Windows automatically searches for the printer driver on the Internet (if the
computer is connected to the Internet). This means that you do not need to search for the driver yourself.
However, this process will install the driver without the rest of the software. Therefore, we recommend
installation using the DVD (or the install package that you can download from HP's website) so that all of the
printer software is installed.
Advanced print settings
The rest of this chapter explains the various print settings that you can use when printing with a printer
driver, the Embedded Web Server or the HP Utility. These methods offer a relatively large number of settings
in order to satisfy all requirements.
TIP: In general you are recommended to use the default settings unless you know that they do not meet
your requirements.
TIP: If you intend to reuse a particular group of settings repeatedly, you can save those settings under a
name of your own choice and recall them later. A saved group of settings is known as a 'quick set' in the
Windows printer driver, and as a 'preset' in the Embedded Web Server.
Job storage and PIN printing
Job storage allows jobs to be stored and then printed when required. It also provides features for setting
print jobs as private, with a personal identification number (PIN). To access job storage features, open the
printer’s Properties, and then select Printing Preferences. Click the Job storage tab, where the following
job-storage features are available:
●
Print and Store: After a job has printed, it is stored in the printer; more copies can then be printed from
the front panel.
●
Print and Delete: Once printed, the job is automatically removed from the printer.
●
Retrieve from Front Panel (Personal Job): Use the personal job printing feature to specify that a job
cannot be printed until you release it from the printer's front panel.
