Printer drivers  
When you installed the product software, you selected one of the following printer drivers:  
PCL 6 driver: Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the products features. Unless  
complete backward compatibility with previous PCL drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL  
6 driver is recommended.  
PCL 5e driver: Use the PCL 5e driver if you need print results to look consistent with those from  
older HP LaserJet printers. Certain features (FastRes 1200, ProRes 1200, and 300 dpi) are not  
available in this driver. (Do not use the PCL 5e driver provided with this printer with older printers.)  
PS driver: Use the PostScript (PS) driver for compatibility with PS needs. Certain features  
(manual duplexing, printing booklets, watermarks, and printing more than four pages per sheet)  
are not available with this driver.  
Note  
The product automatically switches between PS emulation and PCL printer languages depending  
on the driver you have selected. PS emulation emulates Adobe® PostScript Level2. PostScript is a  
registered trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated. For information about accessing your printer  
Understanding print quality settings  
Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style in which the  
graphics are printed. You can also use the print quality settings to optimize the print quality for a  
specific media type. See Optimizing print quality for media types for more information.

You can change the settings in the printer properties to accommodate the types of jobs you are  
printing. The following settings are available depending on the printer driver you are using:  
Best Quality (ProRes 1200): This prints at 1200 dpi (dots per inch) and provides the best  
print quality.  
Faster Printing (FastRes 1200): The resolution is rendered differently so that the job can  
print faster. This is the default setting.  
1200 dpi  
600 dpi  
300 dpi  
Custom: This prints the same as the Faster Printing setting, but you can change the scale  
patterns.  
EconoMode (Save Toner): Text is printed using less toner. This setting is useful when you  
are printing drafts.  
Note  
Changing the resolution can change the formatting of your text.  
To temporarily change print quality settings  
To change the print quality settings only for the current software applications use, access the  
properties through the Print Setup menu in the application you are using to print. See Changing  
settings from your computer for more information.  
To change print quality settings for all future jobs  
You can access print quality settings by selecting Printers from the Windows Start menu, then  
accessing the properties for the product. The settings are on the Finishing tab (Windows) under  
Print Quality settings in the printer properties. To view the details of each setting, click Details. For  
Macintosh OS 9.1 select the Imaging Options screen.  
To enable EconoMode (save toner)  
An excellent way to extend the life of your print cartridge is by using EconoMode. EconoMode  
uses substantially less toner than normal printing. The printed image is lighter, but it is adequate  
for printing drafts or proofs.  
To enable EconoMode, access the printer properties. On the Finishing tab (Windows) or the  
Imaging Options screen (Macintosh OS 9.1) under Print Quality, select EconoMode. For

Scanner resolution and color  
If you are printing a scanned image or copying an image and the quality is not as you expected,  
you might have selected a resolution or color setting in the copier/scanner software that does not  
match your needs. Resolution and color affect scanned and copied images in the following ways:  
Image clarity  
Texture of gradations (smooth or rough)  
Scan and copy time  
File size  
Resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi) while color, grayscale, and black and white define the  
number of colors possible. You can adjust the scanner hardware resolution up to 600 dpi. The  
software has the ability to perform an interpolated resolution up to 9600 dpi. You can set color and  
grayscale at 1 bit (black and white) or 8 bit (256 levels of gray) to 24 bit (true color).  
The resolution and color guidelines table lists simple tips that you can follow to meet your scanning  
and copying needs.  
76 6 Scanning  
EN  
       
Note  
Note  
Setting the resolution and color to a high value can create large files that take up disk space and  
slow the scanning or copying process. It is important that you first determine how you are going to  
use the scanned image.  
Color and grayscale images achieve the best resolution when scanned from the flatbed scanner  
rather than the ADF.

Receiving faxes  
You can receive faxes to the product or to your computer. In general, incoming faxes to the product  
are automatically answered; however, if you change which devices are connected to the same  
phone line that the product is connected to, you will need to change how the product answers  
incoming faxes. See Changing how the product answers incoming faxes for instructions. Follow  
the procedures in this section to manage faxes routed to the product.  
To receive faxes when you hear fax tones  
If you have a phone line that receives both fax and phone calls, and you hear fax tones when you  
answer the phone, you can start the receiving process in one of two ways:  
If you are close to the product, press fax/send on the control panel.  
When you answer any phone connected to the line (an extension phone) and hear fax tones,  
the product should begin answering the call automatically. If not, press 1-2-3 in sequence on  
the telephone keypad, listen for fax transmission sounds, and then hang up.  
Note  
For the second method to work, the extension phone setting must be set to Yes. See Enabling an  
extension phone to check or change the setting.  
To reprint a fax  
If you want to reprint a fax because the print cartridge was empty or if the fax printed on the wrong  
type of media, you can try to reprint it. The actual number of faxes stored for possible reprinting is  
determined by the available memory. The most recent fax prints first; the oldest fax prints last.  
These faxes are continuously stored, and reprinting them does not clear them from memory. To  
clear these faxes from memory, see Deleting faxes from memory.  
EN  
Receiving faxes 85

To block or unblock fax numbers  
If there are people or businesses from whom you do not want to receive faxes, you can block up to  
30 fax numbers using the control panel. When you block a fax number and someone from that  
number sends you a fax, the display panel indicates the number is blocked, the fax does not print,  
and the fax is not saved in memory. Faxes from blocked fax numbers appear in the fax activity log  
with a discardeddesignation. You can unblock blocked fax numbers individually or all at one time.

Receiving faxes to your computer  
To receive faxes to your computer, you must enable the receive to PC setting in the software (see  
the product software Help). If you have a phone line receiving both fax and voice calls (a shared  
line) and an answering machine or computer voicemail on the line, you must turn off the answering  
machine or voicemail to receive faxes to the computer. If you do not, either the answering system  
answers all calls, or the PC fax program does. Because of this limitation, most users choose to  
receive faxes to the product.

About speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes  
You can store frequently dialed fax numbers or groups of fax numbers as one-touch keys,  
speed-dial codes, or group-dial codes.  
In the products phone book, there are a total of 275 codes available that can be used for  
speed-dial codes and group-dial codes. For example, if you program 225 of the codes as  
speed-dials, the remaining 50 can be used for group-dials.  
See the following procedures for more information about how to use speed-dial codes, one-touch  
keys, and group-dial codes:  
To program speed-dial codes and one-touch keys  
Speed-dial codes 1 through 9 are also associated with their corresponding one-touch keys on the  
control panel. The one-touch keys can be used for speed-dial or group-dial codes. A maximum of  
50 characters can be entered for a single fax number.  
Note  
Speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes are more easily programmed from the  
software. For instructions on programming speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes

To program a one-touch key for alternate long distance  
If you use an alternate long distance carrier, you can program a one-touch key to dial the services  
access number before a fax number. When you need to use this one-touch key, press it, enter the  
fax number, and press fax/send. Both the access number and the fax number are then dialed  
together. If the access number is used almost every time you dial a fax, it might be easier to  
program the access number as a dialing prefix (see Inserting a dial prefix for more information).  
Note  
Speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes are more easily programmed from the  
software (not available in Windows 95). For instructions on programming speed-dial codes,  
one-touch keys, and group-dial codes using the product software, see the product software Help.  
Use this procedure if the access number has more than 10 characters or if you only occasionally  
use the access number.

When you are finished entering the access number, press pause/redial. A pause at the end of  
the string tells the product not to dial this number until you dial the fax number.  
Continue with steps 7 through 10 of To program speed-dial codes and one-touch keys.  
Managing group-dial codes  
If you send information to the same group of people on a regular basis, you can program a  
group-dial code to simplify the task. Any available speed-dial codes can be programmed with  
group-dial codes. Group-dial codes using numbers 1 through 9 are also associated with the  
corresponding one-touch key on the control panel. Any individual can be added to a group. All  
group members must have programmed speed-dial codes or one-touch keys assigned to them  
before being added to the group-dial code.  
Use these instructions to manage your group-dial codes:  
Note  
Speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes are more easily programmed from the

Using fax forwarding  
You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to another fax number. When the fax arrives at  
your product, it is stored in memory. Then your product dials the fax number you have specified  
and sends the fax. If it cannot forward a fax because of an error (for example, the number is busy)  
and repeated attempts to redial are unsuccessful, your product will print the fax.  
If the product runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it will terminate the incoming fax and only  
forward the pages and partial pages already stored in memory.  
When using this feature, the product must be the one receiving faxes (not the computer) and the  
answer mode must be set to Automatic (see Changing how the product answers incoming faxes).

Changing rings-to-answer  
When the answer mode is set to automatic, the products rings-to-answer setting determines the  
number of times the phone rings before an incoming call is answered.  
If the product is connected to a line receiving both fax and voice calls (a shared line) with an  
answering machine, you may need to adjust the rings-to-answer. The number of rings-to-answer  
for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows  
the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice call.  
When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically  
answers it if it detects fax tones.  
Refer to the fax guide that came with your product to determine the default and recommended  
rings-to-answer settings for your country or region.

than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine or voicemail. If it is not, the product will be unable  
to receive fax calls.

Changing answer ring patterns  
If you subscribe to ring pattern service with your telephone company, you can enable the product  
to detect ring patterns. If you do not have ring pattern service, and you change this setting, the  
product will not be able to receive faxes.  
What is ring pattern service?  
Ring pattern service, such as distinctive ring, is available from some local telephone companies. It  
allows you to have two or three phone numbers on one line. This costs less than paying for two or  
three separate lines. Each of the phone numbers has a different ring pattern. Ring patterns allow  
you to answer voice calls and allow the product to answer fax calls.  
How do I get the service?  
Call your local telephone company to check the availability and to subscribe. The service might not  
be available in all areas. Also, your telephone company might use a different name for this service.  
If ring pattern service is available and you choose to subscribe to it, remember the following:  
Determine which ring pattern is used for phone calls and which is used for fax calls.  
Make sure the telephone company assigns the correct ring pattern to the fax number. The  
product ignores other ring patterns.  
How will I know if it is working?  
After product installation is complete, ask someone you know to send you a fax. Make sure you  
provide the correct fax number.  
To change answer ring patterns  
Note  
Do not change the all rings default setting if you do not have ring pattern service from your telephone  
company. If you do not have ring pattern service and you change this setting, the product might not  
be able to receive faxes.

not emit a fax signal during fax transmissions. At the time of this publication, these silent-model fax  
machines represented very few of the fax machines in use. The default setting is Off. It should be  
changed only if you regularly receive faxes from someone with an older-model fax machine.

Changing autoreduction settings for incoming faxes  
If the fit to page option is on, the product automatically reduces long faxes to fit on the products  
default paper size (up to a 75% reduction), for example from legal to letter size.  
If the fit to page option is turned off, long faxes print at full size on multiple pages.  
If you have the stamp received faxes option on, you may want to turn autoreduction on also. This  
reduces the size of incoming faxes just slightly and prevents the page stamp from forcing a  
received fax page onto two pages.  
Note  
Make sure the paper size setting matches the size of paper loaded in the paper input tray. To change  
the default paper size, see Changing the default paper size.

Normally, the product monitors the signals on the telephone line while it is sending or receiving a  
fax. If the product detects an error signal during the transmission and the error correction setting is  
on, the product can request that a portion of the fax be resent.  
You should only turn error correction off if you are having trouble sending or receiving a fax, and  
you want to accept the errors in the transmission. Turning the setting off might be useful when you

Installing the network software  
After you have successfully connected the HP LaserJet 3300 series product to your network, you  
should install or reinstall the software that came with the product. The software must be installed  
to take full advantage of the product features and to enable networked printing from each PC.  
Note  
If you are using a previously purchased HP Jetdirect print server, do not install the software that  
came with it. Use the software that came with your HP LaserJet 3300 series product.  
See the getting started guide that came with the product for complete instructions on installing the  
software.  
Using the embedded web server  
Each HP Jetdirect 310x print server contains an embedded web server that you can access  
through a compatible web browser on an intranet. The embedded web server provides access to  
configuration and management pages for the print server and the attached printer. The networking  
pages provide access to status and configuration information on the HP Jetdirect 310x print  
server.  
You can use the embedded web server to perform the following tasks:  
Monitor the status of the printer and the print server  
Make configuration changes to the print server to customize it for your network  
Link to HPs web site  
Scan images over the network without installing the HP LaserJet 3300 series product software  
Prerequisites  
Computers with the TCP/IP protocol installed can use the embedded web server to monitor and  
configure the printers networked with an HP Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on  
the product CD-ROM to set this up.  
Before you can use the embedded web server, you must configure an IP address for the HP  
Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on the product CD-ROM to configure the IP  
address.  
Optionally, you can use BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration  
Protocol) to automatically configure the IP address over the network each time the print server is  
turned on.  
Compatible web browsers  
If you use Windows 9x, or NT 4.0, the embedded web server works with the following browsers:  
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.01, or 5.5  
Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1  
If you use Windows 2000, ME, or XP, the following browsers are supported:  
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or 5.5  
Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1  
If you use Mac OS 8.6 and later, or 9.0, the following browsers are supported:

3
Run a supported web browser.  
Enter the IP address of the print server as the URL. The print servers home page displays.  
Click the Help link on the web page for more information.  
Note  
If you change the IP address and other parameters, the connection to the embedded web server  
closes. To re-establish a connection, use the new IP address as the URL. Also, some computer  
setups may no longer work.  
Using HP Web JetAdmin  
HP Web JetAdmin is a printer installation and management application for intranets. You can  
obtain this software from HP Customer Care online at http://www.hp.com/support/net_printing.  
Hewlett-Packard recommends that you use HP Web JetAdmin version 6.5 or later for operation  
with the print servers embedded web server.  
Using BOOTP  
This section describes how to configure the print server using Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)  
services on servers in some operating systems. BOOTP is used to download network  
configuration data from a server to the HP Jetdirect print server over the network.  
For BOOTP, the downloaded configuration data may also identify a file containing extended  
configuration data. The HP Jetdirect print server downloads this file using TFTP. This TFTP  
configuration file may be located on the BOOTP server or on a separate TFTP server.  
Automatically downloading configuration data has the following benefits:  
Ease of HP Jetdirect print server configuration. Complete network configuration can be  
automatically downloaded each time the print server is powered on.  
Ease of configuration management. Network configuration parameters for the entire network  
can be in one location.  
Enhanced configuration control of the print server. Configuration by other methods is limited to  
select parameters.  
When the print server is powered on, it broadcasts requests that contain its hardware address. A  
server daemon searches servers for configuration data with a matching hardware address, and if  
successful, sends the corresponding configuration data to the print server as a reply.  
The factory-default state of the HP Jetdirect print server is to request its configuration data using  
BOOTP requests first, and if no BOOTP reply is received, then to request its configuration data  
using DHCP requests.  
Note  
If the print server and the BOOTP, TFTP, or DHCP server are located on different subnets, IP  
configuration may fail unless the routing device supports BOOTP Relay(allows the transfer of  
requests between subnets).  
114 8 Networking  
EN  
           
Setting up the BOOTP server  
Note  
For systems using NIS (Network Information Service):  
If your server uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP service before  
performing the BOOTP configuration steps. Refer to your system documentation.  
The procedure to set up the DHCP server depends on the operating system on that system. (It  
may be a system other than those using the HP Jetdirect print services.)  
Windows 2000 or NT servers:  
On Windows NT or 2000 server systems, use the Microsoft DHCP utilities to set up print server  
configuration through BOOTP.  
When you use the Windows NT DHCP procedure (with the finite lease duration and adding a  
reservation in step 8), the resulting service will respond to BOOTP requests as well as to  
DHCP requests from the print server. See Windows NT Procedure.  
When you use the Windows 2000 DHCP procedure, the resulting service will respond to  
BOOTP requests when you select BOOTP only or Both in step 11d. See Windows 2000  
These systems may require third-party software for TFTP support.  
UNIX servers:  
A BOOTP server running UNIX must be set up with the BOOTP daemon bootpd, and must be set  
up with the /etc/bootptab configuration file. The configuration data in the /etc/bootptab file must be  
properly entered. See Bootptab file entries.  
TFTP is used to obtain additional configuration data from a configuration file on a TFTP server.  
This file is specified in the bootptab file; see the T144 tag. See Bootptab file entries.  
NetWare BOOTP servers:  
For setup of NetWare BOOTP servers, refer to your NetWare documentation.  
Bootptab file entries  
The following is an example of an /etc/bootptabfile entry for an HP Jetdirect print server:

Using DHCP  
The procedure to set up the DHCP server depends on the operating system on that system. (It  
may be a system other than those using the HP Jetdirect print services.)  
UNIX servers:  
For instructions on setting up DHCP on UNIX systems, see the bootpd man page.  
On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration file dhcptab may be located in the /etc  
directory. Since HP-UX presently does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for  
its DHCP implementations, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to infinite.  
This ensures that the print server IP addresses remain static until dynamic name services are  
provided.  
Windows NT 4.0 servers:  
You will set up a pool of IP addresses that the server can assign or lease to a requester.  
Note  
Note  
To avoid problems resulting from IP addresses that change, HP recommends that all print servers  
be assigned IP addresses with infinite leases or reserved IP addresses.  
Windows NT Procedure  
In addition to the general steps provided here, see also the instructions supplied with your DHCP  
software.

Double-click the DHCP Manager icon to open this window.  
Select Server and select Server Add.  
Type the server IP address, then click OK to return to the DHCP Manager window.  
In the list of DHCP servers, click on the server you have just added, then select Scope and  
select Create.  
6
Select Set up the IP Address Pool. In the IP Address Pool section, set up the IP address  
range by entering the beginning IP address in the Start Address box and entering the ending  
IP address in the End Address box. Also enter the subnet mask for the subnet to which the IP  
address pool applies. The starting and ending IP addresses define the end points of the  
address pool assigned to this scope.  
Note  
If desired, you can exclude ranges of IP addresses within a scope.  
7
In the Lease Duration section, select Unlimited, then select OK.  
HP recommends that all print servers be assigned infinite leases to avoid problems resulting  
from IP addresses that change. Be aware, however, that selecting an unlimited lease duration  
for the scope (as described above) causes all clients in that scope to have infinite leases.  
If you want clients on your network to have finite leases, you can instead set the duration to a  
finite time, but you should configure all print servers as reserved clients for the scope.

below.  
c
Now provide the IP address of the WINS server as follows:  
i. Select Value, then Edit Array.  
ii. From the IP Address Array Editor, select Remove to delete any undesired addresses  
previously set. Then type in the IP address of the WINS server and select Add.  
iii. Once the address appears in the list of IP addresses, select OK. This returns you to the  
DHCP Options window. If the address you have just added appears in the list of IP  
addresses (near the bottom of the window) continue to step 10d below. Otherwise, retry  
step 10c.  
d
In the DHCP Options window, select WINS/NBT Node Type (046) from the Unused  
Options list. Select Add to add the node type to the Active Options list. In the Byte box,  
input 0x4 to indicate a mixed node, and select OK.

Configuring the print server for DHCP configuration  
Once a DHCP server is set up (according to the previous section), the factory-default state of the  
print server requires no further action for print server configuration.  
Changing the BOOTP/DHCP configuration method  
Other configuration tools that include IP configuration, such as the embedded web server or  
Telnet, allow you to disable BOOTP and/or DHCP auto-configuration. In each of these tools, three  
possible settings for the configuration method are provided; each of the settings has the effect of  
disabling others, as follows:  
BOOTP  
The print server automatically releases any names and IP addresses associated with the  
DHCP server and re-initializes the TCP/IP protocol for the print server (unless a BOOTP  
configuration is currently in effect). At this point, TCP/IP is unconfigured, and the print server  
begins to sendeven before power is cycledBOOTP requests to acquire new IP  
configuration information. If no BOOTP reply is received, the IP address remains at the factory  
default 192.0.0.192. DHCP is disabled.  
After power to the print server is cycled, only BOOTP requests are sent and only BOOTP  
replies are processed. Any configuration of IP parameters done manually is ignored.

After power to the print server is cycled, only DHCP requests are sent and only DHCP replies  
are processed. Any configuration of IP parameters done manually is ignored.  
Manual  
BOOTP and DHCP are disabled.  
You should proceed to manually set all of the IP configuration parameters, including IP  
address, subnet mask, default gateway, and idle timeout. You can use the settings available in  
the same tool you are using.  
CAUTION  
If the print server is switched from using an address allocated by a DHCP server to using a manually  
assigned address, that manually assigned address should be outside any DHCP range used for  
other devices on the network. An alternative is to tell the DHCP server that the print server's address  
is fixed so that it will never be allocated to another client.  
Returning to factory defaults  
You can return the print server to its factory-default state (also called cold reset) by using the  
EN  
Using DHCP 121  
 
Moving to another network  
When you move an HP Jetdirect print server that is configured with an IP address to a new  
network, make sure that the IP address does not conflict with the IP addresses on the new  
network. You can change the print servers IP address to one that can be used on the new  
network, or you can erase the current IP address and configure another IP address after you  
install the print server on the new network. Cold reset the print server (see Resetting the 310x  
If the current BOOTP server cannot be reached, you might need to find a different BOOTP server  
and configure the printer to that server.  
If you used BOOTP or DHCP to configure the print server, edit the appropriate system files with  
updated settings. If you manually set the IP address, reconfigure the IP parameters.  
Follow the instructions on the appropriate home page to configure or modify your printer. These  
instructions show you how to configure your printer and set up the printer for printing.  
Note  
You can substitute the server domain with the TCP/IP address.

Cleaning the print cartridge area  
You do not need to clean the print cartridge area often. However, cleaning this area can improve  
the quality of your printed sheets. During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can  
accumulate inside the printer. Over time, this buildup can cause print quality problems, such as  
toner specks or smearing. To correct and prevent these types of problems, you can clean the print  
cartridge area and the printer media path.

See the following sections for more information:  
EN  
137  
 
Product media specifications  
HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. The printer accepts a variety of media, such  
as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, vellum, and  
custom-sized paper. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors  
affecting printer performance and output quality.  
The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in  
this user guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems:  
Poor print quality  
Increased media jams  
Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair  
For best results, use only HP brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot  
recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or  
control their quality.  
It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce  
satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and  
humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.  
Before you purchase a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements specified  
in this user guide and in Guidelines for Paper and Other Print Media. (See Ordering HP parts and  
accessories for more information about ordering the guidelines.) Always test media before you  
purchase a large quantity.  
CAUTION  
Using media that does not meet Hewlett-Packards specifications might cause problems for the  
printer, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service  
agreements.  
Supported media sizes (printer)  
The following are the supported media sizes:  
Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)  
Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)  
Guidelines for using media  
Paper  
For best results, use conventional paper. Make sure that the paper is of good quality and free of  
cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.  
If you are unsure about what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the  
label on the package of paper.  
Some paper causes print quality problems, jamming, or damage to the printer.  
Note  
Note  
Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types  
of thermography.  
Do not use raised letterhead.  
138 10 Media  
EN  
             
Note  
The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or  
preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature (200° C or 392° F for 0.1  
second).

Ragged edges.  
Do not use paper with cutouts or  
perforations.  
Problems with feeding.  
Use good quality paper.  
Labels  
When selecting labels, consider the quality of the following factors:  
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200° C (392° F), the printers  
maximum temperature.  
Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off  
sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.  
Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any  
direction.  
Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. Never  
use a sheet of labels that has already been run through the printer.  
Transparencies  
Transparencies must be able to withstand 200° C (392° F), the printers maximum temperature.  
EN  
Guidelines for using media 139  
           
Envelopes  
Envelope construction  
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between  
manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on  
envelopes depends on the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the  
following factors:  
Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 105 g/m2 (28-pound), or  
jamming might result.  
Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inch) curl  
and should not contain air. Envelopes that trap air may cause problems.  
Condition: Make sure that the envelopes are not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.  
Sizes: From 90 x 160 mm (3.5 x 6.3 inches) to 178 x 254 mm (7 x 10 inches).  
Envelopes with double-side seams  
An envelope with double-side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope  
rather than diagonal seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle. Make sure that the seam  
extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as shown in the following illustration:  
Acceptable  
Unacceptable  
Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps  
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use  
adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer: 200° C (392° F). The extra flaps  
and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.  
Envelope storage  
Proper storage of envelopes contributes to good print quality. You should store envelopes flat. If air  
is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing.  
Card stock and heavy media  
You can print many types of card stock from the paper input tray, including index cards and  
postcards. Some card stock performs better than others because its construction is better suited  
for feeding through a laser printer.  
For optimum printer performance, do not use paper heavier than 157 g/m2 (42-pound). Paper that  
is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, paper jams, poor toner fusing, poor print  
quality, or excessive mechanical wear.  
140 10 Media  
EN  
       
Note  
You might be able to print on heavier paper if you do not fill the input tray to capacity and if you use  
paper with a smoothness rating of 100 to 180 Sheffield.  
Card stock construction  
Smoothness: 135-157 g/m2 (36-to 42-pound) card stock should have a smoothness rating of  
100 to 180 Sheffield. 60-135 g/m2 (16- to 36-pound) card stock should have a smoothness  
rating of 100 to 250 Sheffield.  
Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inch) of curl.  
Condition: Make sure that the card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.  
Sizes: Only use card stock within the following size ranges:  
Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)  
Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)  
Card stock guidelines  
If the card stock curls or jams, print using the straight-through output path.  
Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inch) away from the edges.  
Selecting media for the ADF  
ADF specifications  
Input capacity: The ADF holds up to 50 sheets of flat 60 to 90 g/m (16- to 24-pound) plain  
paper.  
Media size: Only use plain paper within the following size ranges:  
Minimum: 127 mm x 127 mm (5 x 5 inches)  
Maximum: 215.9 mm x 381 mm (8.5 x 15 inches)  
Note  
Use the flatbed scanner for copying and scanning if the media is fragile, thin, or thick. The flatbed  
scanner provides the best copy and scan quality. The ADF is recommended for plain paper copying,  
scanning, and faxing (faxing can be done only from the ADF).

The life of the print cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print jobs require. When  
printing text at 5% coverage, the standard print cartridge (C7115A) lasts an average of 2,500  
pages. The extended life print cartridge (C7115X) lasts an average of 3,500 pages. This assumes  
that you set the print density to 3 and turn EconoMode off (these are the default settings).  
Recycling print cartridges  
To reduce landfill waste, Hewlett-Packard has adopted a recycling program for empty print  
cartridges. A postage-paid shipping label is inside the new HP LaserJet print cartridge box. Since  
1990, the HP LaserJet Print Cartridge Recycling Program has collected more than 25 million used  
HP LaserJet print cartridges that otherwise might have been discarded in the worlds landfills. To  
join this recycling effort, follow the instructions provided in the new print cartridge box.  
To install a new HP print cartridge, see To install a print cartridge or follow the instructions included  
in the print cartridge box. See the recycling information on the print cartridge box and the HP  
Printing Supplies Environmental Program Information included in the print cartridge box.  
Saving toner  
To save toner, select the EconoMode option in your printer properties settings. While in  
EconoMode (Save Toner), the printer uses less toner on each page. Selecting this option will  
extend the life of the print cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but it will reduce print quality.  
See Print cartridge life expectancy for more information.  
DIMMs (memory or font)  
If you add a dual in-line memory module (DIMM) to the HP LaserJet 3300 product, you can  
perform more complex product tasks or add additional fonts.  
Use this information to manage DIMMs with your HP LaserJet 3300 product:  
To test a DIMM installation or removal  
After installing or removing a memory DIMM, you can test your work by printing a configuration

The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy quality:  
168 13 Troubleshooting copy problems  
EN  
             
Copy from the flatbed scanner. This will produce a higher quality copy than copying from the  
ADF.  
Use quality originals.  
Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear  
images and problems with the OCR application. See Installing and loading the media input  
trays for instructions.  
Open or close the straight-through output door on the product to accommodate the copy job. If  
you are copying to standard weight media, use the output bin (door closed). If you are copying  
to heavy media, use the straight-through output path (door open).  
If your product frequently feeds more than one page at a time, replace the separation pad. For  
Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.  
Note  
Recurring feed problems indicate the copier/separation pad is worn. See Ordering HP parts and  
accessories to order a new separation pad. See Changing the printer separation pad for more  
information about replacing the separation pad.  
Clearing ADF media jams

Scanned image is of poor quality  
Is the original a second generation photo or picture?  
Reprinted photographs, such as those in newspapers or magazines, are printed using tiny dots of  
ink that make an interpretation of the original photograph, which dramatically decreases the  
quality. Often, the ink dots form unwanted patterns that, when scanned and reprinted or displayed,  
can be detected. If the following suggestions do not solve your problem, you might need to use a  
better quality version of the original.  
To eliminate the patterns, try reducing the size of the image after scanning. See Enhancing  
Print the scanned image to see if the quality is better.  
Make sure that your resolution and color settings are correct for the type of scan job that you  
are performing. See Scanner resolution and color for more information.  
For best results, use the flatbed scanner, not the ADF, for scanning.  
Is the image quality better when printed?  
The image displayed on the screen is not always an accurate representation of the quality of the  
scan.  
Try adjusting the settings on your computer monitor to display more colors (or levels of gray).  
Typically, you make this adjustment by selecting Display, found on the Windows Control Panel.  
Try adjusting the resolution and color settings in the scanner software. See Scanner resolution  
and color for more information.  
Is the image skewed (crooked)?  
The original might have been loaded incorrectly. It is important to use the media guides when you  
load the originals into the ADF. See Loading originals to copy or scan for more information.  
Does the scanned image have blots, lines, vertical white stripes, or any  
other defect?  
See Improving scan quality for more information.  
Is the scanner dirty?  
If the scanner is dirty, the image produced will not have optimum clarity. See Cleaning the outside  
of the product for instructions.  
Do graphics appear different from the original?  
The graphics settings might not be suitable for the type of scan job that you are performing. Try  
changing the graphics settings, see Changing settings from your computer for more information.  
Part of the image did not scan or text is missing  
Was the original loaded correctly?  
Make sure that you loaded the original correctly. See Loading originals to copy or scan for  
instructions.  
176 14 Troubleshooting scanning problems  
EN  
           
Does the original have a colored background?  
Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend too much. Try adjusting the  
settings before you scan the original or enhancing the image after you scan the original. See  
Scanner resolution and color for more information.  
Is the original longer than 381 mm (15 inches)?  
The maximum scannable length is 381 mm (15 inches) using the ADF. If the page exceeds the  
maximum length, the scanner stops. Copies can be longer.  
CAUTION  
Do not try to pull the original from the ADF; you might damage the scanner or your original. See  
Clearing ADF media jams for instructions.  
Is the original too small?  
The minimum size supported in the ADF for the HP LaserJet 3300 is 127 by 127 mm (5 by 5  
inches). The original might be jammed. See Clearing ADF media jams for instructions.  
Are you using HP LaserJet Director?  
Your default property settings for HP LaserJet Director might be set to automatically perform a  
specific task other than the one you are attempting. For example, you can set HP LaserJet  
Director to automatically perform a scan to e-mail. This means that your image does not show up  
on the screen but is attached to an e-mail message as a file. See the product software Help for  
instructions on changing the properties in HP LaserJet Director.  
Is the paper size correct?  
In Scan settings (in the HP LaserJet Scan Control Viewer), make sure that the input paper size is  
large enough for the document that you are scanning.  
Did you check for missing text in selected regions?  
Scan your document in page-by-page mode and make sure that missing text is in a selected  
region. If you are performing an OCR operation on a document, colored text does not scan well, if  
at all.  
The text cannot be edited  
Is the product software set to edit text (OCR)?  
Text remains as a single image until the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) application converts  
the single image into text that you can edit. See Scanning with OCR for more information.  
Was the original loaded correctly?  
For OCR, the original must be loaded top forward and face up into the ADF. If using the flatbed  
scanner, make sure to load originals correctly. Place the original document face down on the  
flatbed scanner with the top left corner of the document located in the lower right corner of the  
glass.  
Are you using the correct word processing application?  
Your OCR application might be linked to a word processing application that does not perform OCR  
tasks. See the product software Help for more information about linking applications.  
EN  
The text cannot be edited 177  
       
Does the original have tightly spaced text?  
The OCR application might not recognize text that is tightly spaced. For example, if the text  
that the OCR application converts has missing or combined characters, rn might appear as m.  
Text may be classified as a graphic and therefore not converted to text.  
Is the original of poor quality?  
The accuracy of the OCR application depends on the image quality, text size, and structure of the  
original and the quality of the scan itself. Make sure that your original has good image quality.  
Does the original have a colored background?  
Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend too much. Try adjusting the  
settings before you scan the original or enhancing the image after you scan the original. See  
Scanner resolution and color for more information. If you are performing an OCR operation on a  
document, colored text does not scan well, if at all.  
The scan takes too long  
Is your resolution or color level set too high?  
If you set the resolution and color level too high, the scan job takes longer and results in larger  
files. To obtain good results when scanning or copying, it is important that you use the correct  
resolution and color level settings for your job. See Scanner resolution and color for more  
information.  
Is your software set to scan in color?  
Your system defaults to color, which takes longer to scan even if you are scanning a monochrome  
original. If you acquire an image through TWAIN, you can change the settings to scan in  
grayscale. See the product software Help for details.  
Did you send a print or copy job before you tried to scan?  
If you sent a print or copy job before you tried to scan, the scan will start if the scanner is not busy.  
However, the printer and scanner share memory, which means that the scan might be slower.  
Is your computer set for bi-directional communication?  
See the documentation that came with your computer to change the BIOS settings. The  
recommended bi-directional setting for the parallel port is ECP. USB is always bi-directional.  
Error messages appear on the screen  
Unable to activate TWAIN source  
If you are acquiring an image from another device, such as a digital camera or another scanner,  
make sure that the other device is TWAIN compliant. Non-TWAIN-compliant devices do not work  
with the HP LaserJet 3300 product software.  
Make sure that you have connected the USB or parallel cable to the correct port on the back of  
your computer. If you have another port, try attaching the cable to the other port. Make sure that  
you have an SPP-(bidirectional) or ECP-compliant parallel port on your computer. An SPP parallel  
port is the minimum; an ECP parallel port is strongly recommended. See the documentation that  
came with your computer for more information about your port.  
178 14 Troubleshooting scanning problems  
EN  
       
Some devices might not share the parallel port with the printer. If you have an external hard drive,  
or network switchbox connected to the same USB or parallel port as the HP LaserJet 3300, the  
other device might be interfering. To connect and use the HP LaserJet 3300, you must disconnect  
the other device or you must use two ports on the computer. You might need to add another  
parallel interface card. Hewlett-Packard strongly recommends an ECP parallel interface card. See  
the documentation that came with your computer for more information about installing an  
additional parallel interface card or resolving device conflicts.  
Verify that the correct TWAIN source is selected. In the software, check the TWAIN source by  
selecting Select Scanner from the File menu.  
The scanner did nothing  
Is the original loaded correctly?  
Make sure that the original is loaded correctly:  
ADF input tray: Top down in the ADF input tray, and the side to be scanned facing up. See To

Preventing problems  
The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy and scan quality:  
Use the flatbed scanner, rather than the ADF, to scan.  
Use quality originals.  
Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear  
images and problems with the OCR application. See Installing and loading the media input  
trays for instructions.  
Open or close the straight-through output door on the product to accommodate the copy job. If  
you are copying to standard weight media, use the output bin (door closed). If you are copying  
to heavy media, use the straight-through output path (door open).  
Adjust the software settings according to how you plan to use the scanned page. See  
resolution and color for more information.  
If your product frequently feeds more than one page at a time, replace the separation pad. For  
Recurring feed problems indicate that the copier/separation pad is worn. See Ordering  
pad for more information about replacing the separation pad.  
Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.

Fax phone problems  
Use the following checklist to help you define what is causing any faxing problems you might be  
encountering.  
Are you using the phone cord supplied with the product?  
This product has been tested with the supplied phone cord to meet RJ11 specifications.  
Is the fax/phone line connector installed in the correct socket on the  
product?  
It should be plugged into the products line socket (the socket on top with an Lnext to it). You  
must open the left side panel to access the socket. See Connecting the product to a phone linein  
the fax guide that came with your product for details.  
Is the fax/phone line connector seated into the socket on the product?  
Gently pull on the Fax/Phone line connector to make sure it is well seated into the socket.  
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 a phone call?  
Attach a phone to the wall jack and verify that there is a dial tone and that you can make a phone  
call.  
What type of phone line are you using?  
Dedicated line: A unique fax/phone number assigned to receive or send faxes. The phone cord  
should be connected to the top port inside the left side panel of the product (the one that is not  
labeled with a telephone icon).  
Shared phone line: A system where both phone calls and faxes are received or sent using the  
same phone number and phone line. A single standard phone line can only perform one function  
at a time. You cannot send a fax while talking on the phone or while connecting to the Internet  
using the same phone line.  
PBX system: A business environment phone system. Standard home phones and the HP  
LaserJet 3330 use an analog phone signal. PBX systems are digital and are incompatible with  
standard phones and with devices such as the HP LaserJet 3330. You need to have access to a  
standard analog phone line in order to send and receive faxes.  
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where, when one incoming line is busy, the next call  
rolls overto the next available line. Try attaching the product to the first incoming phone line. The  
product will answer the phone after it rings the number of times set in the products  
rings-to-answer setting. (See Changing rings-to-answer.)  
Distinctive ring service: The phone company can assign two phone numbers to one physical  
line and assign each number a distinctive ring pattern. Make sure the product is set to respond to  
the correct distinctive ring pattern assigned to the fax phone number by your phone service  
182 15 Troubleshooting faxing problems  
EN  
     
Are you using a phone line splitter?  
A phone line splitter is a device used to split out two or more phone line jacks to connect phones or  
devices to the same phone line wall jack. Confusion can result from the existence of two different  
kinds of splitters.  
Parallel splitters (also called Tsplitters) split a single line into two jacks, allowing two devices to  
be plugged into the same line.  
Line1/Line2 splitters provide two phone line outlets from a single jack with two unique phone  
numbers (two phone lines are connected to a single wall jack). A Line1/Line2 splitter must be used  
if you have a fax line and a voice line coming into the same wall jack.  
See Connecting the product to a phone linein the fax guide that came with your product for  
instructions.  
Note  
Parallel or Tsplitters should not be used with the product, as they can degrade the quality of the  
phone signal. If you need to attach a second device to the phone line along with the product, plug  
the second device into the products phonesocket (the socket on the bottom) inside the products  
left side panel. See Connecting the product to a phone linein the fax guide that came with your  
product for instructions.  
Are you using a surge protection device?  
This is a device used between the wall jack and the product to protect the product against  
electrical power passed through the phone lines. These 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 companys voice messaging service?  
This is a voice messaging service used to replace telephone answering devices. If the messaging  
services rings-to-answer setting is lower than the products rings-to-answer setting, the  
messaging service answers the call and the product is not able to receive faxes. If the products  
rings-to-answer setting is lower than that of the messaging service, the product will answer all calls  
and no call will ever be routed to the messaging service. The only voice messaging solution that  
can be successfully used with the product is a stand-alone telephone answering machine.  
Are you using an answering machine?  
An answering machine should be connected directly to the port located inside the left side panel of  
the product that is labeled with the telephone icon or should be shared on the same phone line  
extension. Set the products rings-to-answer for one ring more than the number of rings for which  
the answering machine is set. See Changing rings-to-answer for more information.  
Note  
If an answering machine is connected on the same phone line but on a different jack, it may interfere  
with the products ability to receive faxes.  
The document stops feeding during faxing  
Is the document too large or too small for the ADF?  
The maximum length of a page you can load is 381 mm (15 inches). Faxing of a longer page stops  
at 381 mm (15 inches). The minimum page size for the ADF is 127 by 127 mm (5 by 5 inches). If  
the item is too small, it can jam inside the ADF.  
EN  
The document stops feeding during faxing 183  
             
If there is no jam and it has been less than one minute, wait a moment before pressing cancel. If  
there is a jam, see Clearing media jams, and resend the job.  
Are there problems with the fax machine you are sending to?  
Try sending to a different fax machine.  
Are there problems with the phone line?  
Do one of the following:  
Turn up the volume on the product and press fax/send on the control panel. If you hear a dial  
tone, the phone line is working.  
Disconnect the product from the phone jack and connect a phone. Try to make a phone call to  
make sure the phone line is working.  
The product is receiving faxes but not sending them  
Is your product on a PBX system?  
If your product is on a PBX system, the PBX system might be generating a dial tone the product  
cannot detect.  
Disable the detect dial tone setting. See Changing the detect dial tone setting.  
Is there a poor phone connection?  
If you think there might be a poor connection on this phone line, try sending the fax later and see if  
it sends successfully.  
Outgoing fax calls keep dialing  
The product will automatically redial a fax number if the redial on busy option is set to on. To stop  
the redials while the product is dialing, press cancel. See the Changing redial settings if you need  
to change the setting.  
Faxes you send are not arriving  
Is the receiving fax machine off or does it have an error  
condition?  
Call the recipient to make sure the fax machine is on and ready to receive faxes.  
Is the fax still waiting in memory?  
A fax might be in memory because it is waiting to redial a busy number, there are other jobs ahead  
of it waiting to be sent, or the fax is set up for a delayed send. If a fax job is in memory for any of  
these reasons, an entry for the job appears in the fax log. Print the fax activity log (see Printing the  
fax activity log) and check the Status column for jobs with a Pending designation.

answering calls?  
Do one of the following:  
Discontinue the messaging service.  
Get a phone line dedicated to fax calls.  
Set the product to answer in manual mode. In manual mode, you must start the fax receive  
process yourself.  
Leave the product set to automatic mode and lower the rings-to-answer for the product to a  
number less than the rings-to-answer for the voice mail (see Changing rings-to-answer). The  
product will answer all incoming calls.  
Is the product out of paper?  
If the product is out of paper and its memory is full it will not be able to receive faxes. Refill the  
media input tray. The product will print all of the faxes it has saved in memory and will then resume  
answering fax calls.  
186 15 Troubleshooting faxing problems  
EN  
             
Faxes are transmitting or being received very slowly  
Are you sending or receiving a very complex fax?  
A complex fax, such as one with many graphics, takes longer to be sent or received.  
Does the receiving fax machine have a slow modem speed?  
The product only sends the fax at the fastest modem speed the receiving fax machine can use.  
Is the resolution at which the fax was sent or received very high?  
A higher resolution typically results in better quality, but also requires a longer transmission time. If  
you are receiving the fax, call and ask the sender to lower the resolution and resend the fax.  
If you are sending, lower the resolution and resend the fax. See Changing the default resolution to  
change the default setting.  
Is there a poor phone line connection?  
If there is a poor phone line connection, the product and the receiving fax machine slow down the  
transmission to adjust for errors. Hang up and resend the fax. If this does not work, have the  
phone company check the phone line.  
Faxes are not printing or are printing incorrectly  
Is there media in the media input tray?  
If there is no media, load the media input tray. Any faxes received while the input tray is empty are  
stored in memory and will print once the tray has been refilled.  
Is the receive to PC option selected?  
If the receive to PC option is selected, faxes are being received by the computer. See Receiving  
faxes to your computer for information on this setting.  
Faxes are printing on two pages instead of one  
Is the autoreduction setting set correctly?  
If you want faxes to be reduced to fit on one page, the autoreduction setting should be on. If the

ON and READY  
The first step in troubleshooting your print server is to make sure that the attached printer is ready  
to receive a print job from the print server. To do this, check the printers lights or control panel to  
see whether it is ON and READY.  
If your printers power is switched on and the printer is ready to print, continue with USB OK? (USB  
If the printer is not ready to print, or if you are not sure what to look for, see the next topic.  
Is your printer ON and READY?  
Check the following items to make sure that your printer is online and ready to print.  
Is the printer plugged in and switched on? Make sure that the printer is plugged in and  
switched on. The control panel display should not be blank. If you have checked these items  
and the printer still shows no sign of being on, you may have a defective power cable, power  
source, or printer.  
Is the printer ready? The display should say Ready. If it does not, check to see that there are  
no paper jams in the print or scan paper paths. See Clearing media jams for instructions.  
Make sure all the doors are securely closed.  
If the printer display still does not say Ready, try pressing the menu/enter button.  
Try printing a configuration page. See Printing a configuration page. If you are not able to print  
a configuration page, you will not be able to print from your print server.  
After looking through the list above and making any necessary changes, is your printer ready  
now?  
USB OK? (USB light ON solid green?)  
The HP Jetdirect 310x print server connects to its printer using a USB cable. If the USB  
connection is working correctly, the USB light on the print server will be ON solid green (bright

If your print servers USB light is not ON solid green, or if you are not sure what to look for,  
continue with the following troubleshooting topics.  
Note that the Jetdirect 310x print server does not support parallel-to-USB converters (for  
connecting a parallel printer to a USB host)it works with USB printers only. Make sure that the  
cable is connected firmly to both the printer and the print server.  
Check that both the printer and the print server are powered on.  
After checking the items above and making any necessary changes, is the USB light now ON solid  
green?  
What is the state of the USB light?  
The behavior of the USB light indicates the status of the USB connection. If the USB light on your  
print server is not ON solid green, find the appropriate topic below to continue troubleshooting.  
Is the USB light ON solid green?  
Check the USB light on your print server. It should be ON solid green (bright green in color and  
glowing continuously, not blinking). If it is not ON solid green, follow the troubleshooting steps  
below.  
Make sure that you have a USB cable connected between your printer and the USB port on the  
print server. It should be a standard USB A-to-B cable, as shown below:  
USB light OFF  
If the USB light is OFF, it means that the print servers USB connection is not operational. This is  
OK before the print server finishes starting up (whether or not a USB cable is attached). If the light  
remains OFF after startup, then the print server may be faulty.  
Restart the print server by detaching the power cable and re-attaching it. Wait for the Power/Status  
light to stop blinking (when the self-test finishes).  
Is the USB light now ON solid green?  
If no, your print server has a problem that requires assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support;  
see the support flyer that came with your product for information on contacting HP.  
USB light blinking green  
If the USB light is blinking green, it indicates that the print server has detected a good connection  
to a valid USB device, but the print server does not support the device. For example, this would  
happen if you connected a USB digital camera to the print server.  
This is not a fault, but rather an incompatibility between the print server and the connected device.  
The HP Jetdirect 310x print server supports only USB printers (including USB multifunction  
printers and All-in-One devices). It does not support non-printer USB devices, nor does it support  
USB cable extenders, USB-to-parallel converters, or USB hubs.

If no, but you are connected to a USB printer, your print server has a problem that requires  
assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support; see the support flyer that came with your product  
for information on contacting HP.  
USB light blinking amber  
If the USB light is blinking amber, there might be a hardware fault (for example, a short-circuit,  
faulty cable, or a printer drawing too much power).  
To verify, disconnect the USB cable at the print server. Switch on the printer if it is off. Power cycle  
the print server (unplug it and plug it back in). Then reconnect the USB cable. If the USB light is  
now green and steady, then no problem remains.  
Otherwise, if the USB light is still blinking amber, there may be a faulty component. Try these steps  
to determine which component might be causing the problem:  
Detach the USB cable and power cycle the print server (unplug it and plug it back in). If the  
USB LED is green and steady, the print server is OK. If it is blinking amber, the print server is  
faulty.  
Try reconnecting the USB cable to the print server only, and power cycle the print server  
(unplug it and plug it back in). If the USB LED is green and steady, the cable is also OK. If it is  
blinking amber, the cable may be faulty.  
Power cycle the printer and reconnect the USB cable to the printer. If the USB LED is green  
and steady, the printer is also OK. If it is blinking amber, the printer may be faulty.  
Is the USB light now ON solid green?  
If no, you may need to replace the component indicated at fault. If the fault is with the print server  
or the USB cable (provided with the print server), get assistance from HP Jetdirect technical  
support; see the support flyer that came with your product for information on contacting HP.  
Power/Status OK? (Power/Status light ON solid green?)  
The Power/Status light provides information on the state of the print servers power connection  
and on its physical connection to the network. If connections are working correctly, the  
Power/Status light should be ON solid green (bright green in color and glowing continuously, not  
blinking). If the connections are not working correctly, the Power/Status light may be off, blinking  
green, or blinking amber.  
If your print servers Power/Status light is ON solid green, continue with 10/100 link OK? (10 light

BNC  
A type of network connector generally used with coaxial network cabling.  
A BNC connector has two slots that lock onto two matching knobs on a  
network interface card when the connector can be twisted.  
BOOTP  
Short for Bootstrap Protocol, an Internet protocol that enables a diskless  
workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP address of a BOOTP  
server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the  
machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or  
floppy disk drive. The protocol is defined by RFC 951.  
brightness  
A measure of the overall intensity of the image. The lower the brightness  
value, the darker the image; the higher the value, the lighter the image will  
be.  
browser  
Chooser  
Short for Web browser, a software application used to locate and display  
Web pages.  
The Chooser is part of the Mac OS that allows configuration of the  
computer system to print on any printer with the appropriate software.  
Users that are part of an AppleTalk network system can use the Chooser  
to activate and select among devices (such as printers, file servers, or  
other computers) connected to the network.  
client-server  
A network architecture in which each computer or process on the network  
is either a client or a server. Servers are powerful computers or processes  
dedicated to managing disk drives, network traffic, and printers. Clients  
are PCs or workstations on which users run applications. Clients rely on  
servers for resources such as files and devices.  
collapse  
collate  
The process of reducing a sticky note to an icon.  
The process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collate is  
selected, the HP LaserJet 3300 series product prints an entire set before  
printing additional copies. Otherwise, the device prints the desired  
number of copies of a page together before printing the following pages.

dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing,  
a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the  
network. In some systems, the devices IP address can even change while  
it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP  
addresses.  
Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the  
software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an  
administrator to manage the task. This means that a new computer can  
be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a  
unique IP address.  
DIMMs

single in-line memory module (SIMM) has a 32-bit path to the memory,  
whereas a DIMM has a 64-bit path.  
distinctive ring  
A feature offered by some telephone companies in Australia, Canada,  
New Zealand, the United States, and the United Kingdom that allows two  
or three phone numbers to be set up on the same telephone line. Each  
phone number has a different ring pattern, and the fax machine can be  
configured to recognize the distinctive ring of the fax number.  
DLC  
Short for Data Link Control. Every network interface card has a DLC  
address or DLC identifier that uniquely identifies the node on the network.  
dots per inch (dpi)  
A measurement of resolution used for scanning and printing. Generally,  
more dots per inch mean a higher resolution, a greater amount of visible  
detail in the image, and a larger file size.  
EconoMode  
ECP

created by another application. Embedding the object, rather than simply  
inserting it by pasting it, ensures that the object retains its original format.  
The embedded object can be modified with the original program. In  
Windows environments, embedding objects is made possible by a  
technology called OLE.  
Ethernet  
A common type of local area network recognized as the industry  
standard. Ethernet is also known as IEEE 802.3. Information is broken  
into packetsthat are transmitted in order until they arrive at the  
destination without colliding with any other packet.A network node is  
either transmitting or receiving a packet at any instant.
