Understand paper use  
HP Officejet inks for business are specifically developed for use with HP printheads. Unique ink formulations  
help extend the life of the printheads and enhance reliability. When used with ColorLok® paper, these inks  
provide laser-like color output.  
This product supports a variety of paper and other print media. Paper or print media that does not meet the  
following guidelines might cause poor print quality, increased jams, and premature wear on the product.  
It is possible for paper to meet all of these guidelines and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be  
the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and/or humidity levels, or other variables over  
which Hewlett-Packard has no control.  
CAUTION: Using paper or print media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard's specifications might cause  
problems for the product, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or  
service agreements.  
For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media designed for inkjet printers or multiuse.  
Use paper or print media made for inkjet printers.  
Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands of media because HP cannot  
control their quality.  
NOTE: Based on HP internal testing using a range of plain papers, HP highly recommends using papers with  
the ColorLok® logo for this product. For details, go to www.hp.com/go/printpermanence.  
Use the following guidelines to obtain satisfactory results when using special paper or print media. Set the  
paper type and size in the printer driver to obtain the best results.  
Media type  
Do  
Do not  
Envelopes  
Store envelopes flat.  
Do not use envelopes that are  
wrinkled, nicked, stuck together, or  
otherwise damaged.  
Use envelopes where the seam  
extends all the way to the corner of  
the envelope.  
Do not use envelopes that have  
clasps, snaps, windows, or coated  
linings.  
Labels  
Use only labels that have no exposed  
backing between them.  
Do not use labels that have wrinkles  
or bubbles, or are damaged.  
Use labels that lie flat.  
Do not print partial sheets of labels.  
Use only full sheets of labels.  
Letterhead or preprinted forms  
Use only letterhead or forms  
approved for use in inkjet printers.  
Do not use raised or metallic  
letterhead.

Heavy paper  
Use only heavy paper that is  
approved for use in inkjet printers  
and meets the weight specifications  
for this product.  
Do not use paper that is heavier than  
the recommended media  
specification for this product unless it  
is HP paper that has been approved  
for use in this product.  
Glossy or coated paper  
Use only glossy or coated paper that  
is approved for use in inkjet printers.  
Do not use glossy or coated paper  
designed for use in laser products.  
Using laser printer glossy media can  
result in ink puddling on the page and  
covering the internal parts of the  
product.  
Print on the correct side of this type  
of paper.  
Do not attempt to duplex print on  
this type of paper.  
Printing on the incorrect side of this  
type of paper can lead to puddling  
and product contamination from  
excess ink.  
Duplex printing on this type of paper  
can lead to smearing and product  
contamination.

Set up Save to Network Folder  
Use the following information to configure a Save to Network Folder quick set.  
Use the Save to Network Folder Quick Set Wizard  
Some HP products include driver installation from a software CD. At the end of this installation is an option to  
Setup Scan to Folder and Email. This option opens the setup wizards that are in the HP Embedded Web  
Server (EWS) for the product. The setup wizards include the options for basic configuration.  
To begin, click Save to Network Folder Quick Set Wizard. Follow the instructions on the screen. Click Next to  
advance to the next step in the wizard.  
For more detailed setup information, see the sections that follow to configure this feature through the  
complete set of Save to Network Folder options.  
Set up Save to Network Folder via the HP Embedded Web Server  
1. Open the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS):  
a. From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the Network button to display the IP  
address or host name.  
b. Open a Web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name exactly as it  
displays on the product control panel. Press the Enter key on the computer keyboard. The EWS  
opens.  
2. Click the Scan/Digital Send tab.  
3. On the left navigation menu, click Save to Network Folder Setup link.

NOTE: The Save to Network Folder feature can be minimally configured by selecting this check box  
and not creating a quick set. However, for this basic configuration, the user must enter the destination  
folder information at the control panel for each scan job. A quick set is required to include Save to  
Network Folder metadata.  
5. Under the Quick Sets section, click Add.  
6. On the Set the button location for the Quick Set and options for user interaction at the control panel  
dialog, enter a title and description for the Save to Network Folder quick set. Select the button location

Complete the destination folder settings  
Use the following information to complete the destination folder settings for a shared folder or FTP folder.  
These options are available to set up a network folder using a quick set in the HP Embedded Web Server.  
NOTE: Similar options are available to set up a folder destination from the control panel.  
In the Folder Settings dialog, select one of the following options:  
1. Save to shared folders or FTP folders (Click Add to create a destination folder.)  
2. Save to a personal shared folder  
This option is used in domain environments where the administrator configures a shared folder for  
each user. If this setting applies, Windows or LDAP authentication is required. The personal shared  
folder address is determined by the signed-in user on the product.  
Specify the user’s home folder in the Microsoft Active Directory. Verify that the user knows where  
this home folder is located on the network.  
Users must sign in with Windows at the control panel. If users do not sign in to open the Network  
Folder program, this selection will not show up on the list. This program requires querying the  
network user's account to retrieve the home folder.  
Add Network Folder Path – Save to a standard shared network folder  
UNC folder path: Enter one of the following in this field:  
The fully-qualified domain name (FQDN)  
The IP address of the server  
The FQDN can be more reliable than the IP address. If the server gets its IP address via DHCP, the IP address  
can change.  
With an IP address, the product does not need to use DNS to find the destination server, and therefore, the  
connection might be faster.  
Examples:  
FQDN: \\servername.us.companyname.net\scans  
IP Address: \\16.88.20.20\scans

Custom Subfolder: This option automatically creates a subfolder for a scan in the destination folder. Select a  
format for the subfolder name from the list.  
Restrict subfolder access to user: Select this option to restrict subfolder access to the user who creates the  
scan job.  
Folder Path Preview: Click Update Preview to view the complete folder path for scan jobs.  
Authentication Settings: The authentication settings determine whether to use the credentials of the signed  
in user at the product or to use fixed credentials.  
Use credentials of User: Select this option to use the login credentials for the user, which is typically  
the Windows login. The product user must also have permission on the shared folder for the credentials  
to work.  
Always use these credentials (fixed credentials): Select this option to enter valid credentials for access  
to the shared folder. This option means that anyone with access to the product can send to the folder.  
Windows Domain: Enter the Windows domain name in this field.  
The following information applies for environments that are not on a domain:  
If a shared folder is set to be accessed by everyone, values for a workgroup name (default is  
“Workgroup”), username, and password fields are required to save the quick set. However, it typically  
does not matter what the values are.  
TIP: These fields are available under Authentication Settings using fixed credentials. If the folder is  
in a within a particular user’s folders and not Public, the credentials of that user must be used.  
An IP address might be necessary instead of a computer name. Many home routers do not handle  
computer names well, and there is no Domain Name Server (DNS). In this case, it is best to set up a  
static IP address on the shared PC to alleviate the problem of DHCP assigning a new IP address. On a  
typical home router, this is done by setting a static IP address that is on the same subnet, but outside  
the DHCP address range.  
Add Network Folder Path – Save to an FTP Server  
Specify the following fields to set up an FTP server as the Save To destination.  
FTP Server name  
Port  
FTP Folder Path  
Custom Subfolder (naming convention for subfolder)  
FTP Transfer Mode  
Username and Password  
Click Verify Access to confirm the destination can be accessed. Click OK.  
NOTE: If an FTP site is outside the firewall, a proxy server must be specified under the network settings  
These settings are located in the EWS Networking tab, under the Advanced options.

Send only to folders with read and write access  
Select this option for folders configured for read and write access. This option also supports folder access  
verification, job notifications, and inclusion of user in a subfolder name.  
Verify folder access prior to job start  
Select this check box to force the device to verify folder access before starting a scan job.  
Clear this check box for faster completion of scan jobs. Jobs can fail if the folder is unavailable.  
Allow sending to folders with write-access only  
Select this option for folders configured for write-only access (required for this type of folder).  
NOTE: When this box is checked, the product cannot increment the scan filename. It sends the same  
filename for all scans.  
Select a time-related filename prefix or suffix for the scan filename, so that each scan is saved as a unique  
file, and does not overwrite a previous file. This filename is determined by the information in the File Settings  
dialog in the quick set wizard.

Fax Send Setup  
Fax Dialing Settings  
Configure any of the following settings:  
Menu item  
Description  
Fax Dial Volume  
Use the Fax Dial Volume setting to control the product's dialing volume level when  
sending faxes.  
Dialing Mode  
The Dialing Mode setting sets the type of dialing that is used: either tone (touch-tone  
phones) or pulse (rotary-dial phones).  
Fax Send Speed  
The Fax Send Speed setting sets the modem bit rate (measured in bits per second) of the  
Analog Fax modem while sending a fax.  
Fast (default) — v.34/max 33,600 bps  
Medium — v.17/max 14,400 bps  
Slow — v.29/max 9,600 bps  
Redial Interval  
The Redial Interval setting selects the number of minutes between retries if the number  
dialed is busy or not answering, or if an error occurs.  
NOTE: You might observe a redial message on the control panel when both the Redial  
On Busy and Redial On No Answer settings are set to off. This occurs when the fax  
accessory dials a number, establishes a connection, and then loses the connection. As a  
result of this error condition, the fax accessory performs three automatic redial  
attempts regardless of the redial settings. During this redial operation, a message  
displays on the control panel to indicate that a redial is in progress.  
Redial On Error  
Redial On Busy  
The Redial On Error feature sets the number of times a fax number will be redialed when  
an error occurs during a fax transmission.  
The Redial On Busy setting selects the number of times (0 through 9) the fax accessory  
redials a number when the number is busy. The interval between retries is set by the  
Redial Interval setting.

Menu item  
Description  
Redial On No Answer  
The Redial On No Answer setting selects the number of times the fax accessory redials if  
the number dialed does not answer. The number of retries is either 0 to 1 (used in the  
U.S.) or 0 to 2, depending on the country/region setting. The interval between retries is  
set by the redial interval setting.  
Detect Dial Tone  
Dialing Prefix  
The Detect Dial Tone setting determines whether the fax checks for a dial tone before  
sending a fax.  
The Dialing Prefix setting allows you to enter a prefix number (such as a "9" to access an  
outside line) when dialing. This prefix number is automatically added to all phone  
numbers when dialed.  
General fax send settings  
1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch Administration.  
2. Open the following menus:  
Fax Settings  
Fax Send Settings  
Fax Send Setup  
General Fax Send Settings  
Configure any of the following settings:  
Menu item  
Description  
Fax Number Confirmation  
When the Fax Number Confirmation feature is enabled, the fax number must be entered  
twice to ensure that it was entered correctly. The feature is disabled by default.  
PC Fax Send  
Fax Header  
Use the PC Fax Send feature to send faxes from a PC. This feature is enabled by default.  
Use the Fax Header feature to control whether the header is appended to the top, and  
content is shifted down, or if the header is overlayed on top of the previous header.  
JBIG Compression  
Enabling the JBIG Compression feature can reduce phone-call charges by reducing fax  
transmission time and might be the preferred setting. However, using the JBIG  
Compression feature might cause compatibility problems when communicating with  
some older fax machines, in which case you might need to disable it.  
NOTE: The JBIG Compression feature works only when both the sending and receiving  
machines have this capability.

Menu item  
Description  
Error Correction Mode  
Normally, the fax accessory monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is  
sending or receiving a fax. If the fax accessory detects an error during the transmission  
and the Error Correction Mode setting is on, the fax accessory can request that the error  
portion of the fax be sent again.  
The Error Correction Mode feature is enabled by default. You should turn it off only if  
you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax and if you are willing to accept the  
errors in the transmission and a probable quality reduction in the image. Turning off the  
setting might be useful when you are trying to send a fax overseas or receive one from  
overseas, or if you are using a satellite telephone connection.  
NOTE: Some VoIP providers might suggest turning off the Error Correction Mode  
setting. However, this is not usually necessary.  
Fax Number Speed Dial Matching  
Enabling the Fax Number Speed Dial Matching can help when dialing faxes.  
When you dial a fax number manually, this feature checks the stored speed dial entries  
for a number that matches the number you enter. This can speed the dialing process and  
help you if you do not remember the speed dial entry number for a given fax number.  
If the product finds a matching speed dial entry for the fax number entered manually,  
you can touch Yes to send the fax to that number or have the number added to the fax  
distribution list.

Ringer Volume  
Rings To Answer  
Touch the Ringer Volume drop-down menu and adjust the ringer volume settings.  
The Rings To Answer setting determines the number of times the phone rings before the  
call is answered by the fax accessory.  
NOTE: The default range for the available options for the Rings To Answer setting is  
country/region-specific. The range of possible Rings To Answer options is limited by  
country/region.  
If you experience problems with the fax accessory answering, and the Rings To Answer  
setting is 1, try increasing it to 2.  
Fax Receive Speed  
Touch the Fax Receive Speed drop down menu and select one of the following options:  
Fast (default) — v.34/max 33,600 bps  
Medium — v.17/max 14,400 bps

A “Cartridge is low” or “Cartridge is very low” message displays  
on the product control panel  
Cartridge is low: The product indicates when an ink cartridge level is low. Actual ink cartridge life remaining  
may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable. The  
ink cartridge does not need to be replaced now.  
Cartridge is very low: The product indicates when the ink cartridge level is very low. Actual ink cartridge life  
remaining may vary. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer  
acceptable. The ink cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer  
acceptable.  
Once an HP ink cartridge has reached Very Low, HP’s Premium Protection Warranty on that ink cartridge has  
ended.  
Change the “Very Low” settings  
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 ink cartridge.  
1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch Supplies.  
2. Open the following menus:  
Manage Supplies  
Supply Settings  
Black Cartridge or Color Cartridges  
Very Low Settings  
3. Select one of the following options:  
Select the Stop option to set the product to stop printing when the cartridge reaches the Very Low  
threshold.  
Select the Prompt to continue option to set the product to stop printing when the cartridge  
reaches the Very Low threshold. You can acknowledge the prompt or replace the cartridge to  
resume printing.  
Select the Continue option to set the product to alert you that the cartridge is very low, and to  
continue printing beyond the Very Low setting without interaction. This can result in  
unsatisfactory print quality.  
For products with fax capability  
When the product is set to the Stop or Prompt to continue option, there is some risk that faxes will not print  
when the product resumes printing. This can occur if the product has received more faxes than the memory  
can hold while the product is waiting.  
The product can print faxes without interruption when it passes the Very Low threshold if you select the  
Continue option for the ink cartridge, but print quality might degrade.

the stack, and then return some of the paper to the tray.  
5. Make sure the paper guides in the tray are adjusted correctly for the size of paper. Adjust the guides to  
the appropriate indentation in the tray.

7. If you are printing on heavy, embossed, or perforated paper, use the manual feed feature and feed  
sheets one at a time.  
8. From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch the Trays button. Verify that the  
tray is configured correctly for the paper type and size.

Check ink cartridge status  
Follow these steps to check the estimated life remaining in the ink cartridges if your printed pages have small  
unprinted areas, streaks, or bands.  
1. From the Home screen on the product control panel, scroll to and touch the Supplies button.  
2. The status of all supply items is listed on the screen.  
3. To print or view a report of the status of all supply items, including the genuine HP part number for  
reordering the supply, touch the Manage Supplies button. Touch the Supplies Status button, and then  
touch either the Print or View button.  
4. Check the percent of life remaining for the cartridges and if applicable, the status of other replaceable  
maintenance parts.  
Print quality problems can occur when using an ink cartridge that is at its estimated end of life. The  
supplies status page indicates when a supply level is very low. After an HP supply has reached the very  
low threshold, HP’s premium protection warranty on that supply has ended.  
The ink cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer acceptable.  
Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer acceptable.  
If you determine that you need to replace an ink cartridge or other replaceable maintenance parts, the  
supplies status page lists the genuine HP part numbers.  
5. Check to see if you are using a genuine HP cartridge.  
A genuine HP ink cartridge has the words “HP” or “Hewlett-Packard” on it, or has the HP logo on it. For  
more information on identifying HP cartridges go to www.hp.com/support. Select your country/region.  
Click Troubleshooting. Enter the product name, and then select Search.  
Hewlett-Packard cannot recommend the use of non-HP supplies, either new or remanufactured.  
Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence their design or control their quality. If you are  
using a refilled or remanufactured ink cartridge and are not satisfied with the print quality, replace the  
cartridge with a genuine HP ink cartridge.

Check paper and the printing environment  
Step one: Use paper that meets HP specifications  
Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications.  
Always use a paper type and weight that this product supports.  
Use paper that is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles,  
voids, staples, and curled or bent edges.  
Use paper that has not been previously printed on.  
Use paper that does not contain metallic material, such as glitter.  
Use paper that is designed for use in laser printers. Do not use paper that is designed only for use in  
Inkjet printers.  
Use paper that is not too rough. Using smoother paper generally results in better print quality.  
Step two: Check the environment  
The environment can directly affect print quality and is a common cause for print-quality or paper-feeding  
issues. Try the following solutions:  
Move the product away from drafty locations, such as open windows or doors, or air-conditioning vents.  
Make sure the product is not exposed to temperatures or humidity outside of product specifications.  
Do not place the product in a confined space, such as a cabinet.

Checklist for solving fax problems  
Use the following checklist to help identify the cause of any fax-related problems you encounter:  
Are you using the fax cable supplied with the fax accessory? This fax accessory has been tested with  
the supplied fax cable to meet RJ11 and functional specifications. Do not substitute another fax cable;  
the analog-fax accessory requires an analog-fax cable. It also requires an analog phone connection.  
Is the fax/phone line connector seated in the outlet on the fax accessory? Make sure that the phone  
jack is correctly seated in the outlet. Insert the connector into the outlet until it "clicks."  
NOTE: Verify that the phone jack is connected to the fax port rather than to the network port. The  
ports are similar.  
Is the phone wall jack working properly? Verify that a dial tone exists by attaching a phone to the wall  
jack. Can you hear a dial tone, and can you make or receive a phone call?  
What type of phone line are you using?  
Dedicated line: A standard analog fax/phone line assigned to receive or send faxes.  
NOTE: The phone line should be for product fax use only and not shared with other types of telephone  
devices. Examples include alarm systems that use the phone line for notifications to a monitoring  
company.  
PBX system: A business-environment phone system. Standard home phones and the fax accessory use  
an analog phone signal. Some PBX systems are digital and might not be compatible with the fax  
accessory. You might need an interfacing Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) to connect the fax machine  
to digital PBX systems.  
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where a new call "rolls over" to the next available line when  
the first incoming line is busy. Try attaching the product to the first incoming phone line. The fax  
accessory answers the phone after it rings the number of times set in the rings-to-answer setting.  
Are you using a surge-protection device?  
A surge-protection device can be used between the wall jack and the fax accessory to protect the fax  
accessory against electrical power passed through the phone lines. These devices can cause some fax  
communication problems by degrading the quality of the phone signal. If you are having problems sending or  
receiving faxes and are using one of these devices, connect the product directly to the phone jack on the wall  
to determine whether the problem is with the surge-protection device.  
Are you using a phone company voice-messaging service or an answering machine?  
If the rings-to-answer setting for the messaging service is lower than the rings-to-answer setting for the fax  
accessory, the messaging service answers the call, and the fax accessory cannot receive faxes. If the rings-  
to-answer setting for the fax accessory is lower than that of the messaging service, the fax accessory  
answers all calls.

Does your phone line have a call-waiting feature?  
If the fax telephone line has an activated call-waiting feature, a call-waiting notice can interrupt a fax call in  
progress, which causes a communication error. Ensure that a call-waiting feature is not active on the fax  
telephone line.  
Check fax accessory status  
If the analog-fax accessory does not appear to be functioning, print a Configuration Page report to check the  
status.  
1. From the Home screen, scroll to and touch the Administration button.  
2. Open the following menus:  
Reports  
Configuration/Status Pages  
Configuration Page  
3. Touch the Print button to print the report, or touch the View button to view the report on the screen.  
The report consists of several pages.  
NOTE: The product IP address or host name is listed on the Jetdirect Page.  
On the Fax Accessory Page of the Configuration Page, under the Hardware Information heading, check the  
Modem Status. The following table identifies the status conditions and possible solutions.  
NOTE: If the Fax Accessory Page does not print, there might be a problem with the analog fax accessory. If  
you are using LAN fax or Internet fax, those configurations could be disabling the feature.  
Operational / Enabled1  
Operational / Disabled1  
The analog-fax accessory is installed and ready.  
The fax accessory is installed, but you have not configured the  
required fax settings yet.  
The fax accessory is installed and operational; however, the  
HP Digital Sending utility has either disabled the product fax  
feature or has enabled LAN fax. When LAN fax is enabled, the  
analog-fax feature is disabled. Only one fax feature, either LAN  
fax or analog fax, can be enabled at a time.  
NOTE: If LAN fax is enabled, the Fax feature is unavailable on  
the product control panel.  
Non-Operational / Enabled/Disabled1  
Damaged / Enabled/Disabled1  
The product has detected a firmware failure. Upgrade the  
firmware.  
The fax accessory has failed. Reseat the fax accessory card and  
check for bent pins. If the status is still DAMAGED, replace the  
analog-fax accessory card.  
1
ENABLED indicates that the analog-fax accessory is enabled and turned on; DISABLED indicates that LAN fax is enabled (analog fax is  
turned off).

General fax problems  
The following are some common fax problems.  
The fax failed to send  
JBIG is enabled, and the receiving fax machine does not have JBIG capability.  
Turn off the JBIG setting.  
An Out of Memory status message displays on the product control panel  
The product storage disk is full.  
Delete some stored jobs from the disk. From the Home screen on the product control panel, touch the  
Retrieve from Device Memory button. Open the list of stored jobs or stored faxes. Select a job to delete, and  
then touch the Delete button.  
Print quality of a photo is poor or prints as a gray box  
You are using the wrong page-content setting or the wrong resolution setting.  
Try setting the Optimize Text/Picture option to Photograph setting.  
You touched the Stop button to cancel a fax, but the fax was still sent  
If the job is too far along in the sending process, you cannot cancel the job.  
This is normal operation.  
No fax address book button displays  
The fax address book feature has not been enabled.  
Use the HP MFP Digital Sending Software Configuration utility to enable the fax address book feature.  
Not able to locate the Fax settings in HP Web Jetadmin  
Fax settings in HP Web Jetadmin are located under the device's status page drop-down menu.  
Select Digital Sending and Fax from the drop-down menu.  
The header is appended to the top of the page when the overlay option is enabled  
For all forwarded faxes, the product appends the overlay header to the top of a page.  
This is normal operation.  
A mix of names and numbers is in the recipients box  
Names and numbers can both display, depending on where they are from. The fax address book lists names,  
and all other databases list numbers.  
This is normal operation.

A one-page fax prints as two pages  
The fax header is being appended to the top of the fax, pushing text to a second page.  
To print a one page fax on one page, set the overlay header to overlay mode, or adjust the fit-to-page  
setting.  
A document stops in the document feeder in the middle of faxing  
A jam is in the document feeder.  
Clear the jam, and send the fax again.  
The volume for sounds coming from the fax accessory is too high or too low  
The volume setting needs to be adjusted.  
Adjust the volume in the Fax Send Settings menu and the Fax Receive Settings menu.
