Software overview for Windows Networking requirements The following are required for your HP LaserJet all-in-one product to work on a network connection. ■ An installed network that uses the TCP/IP network protocol. ■ A cable for your type of network connections (not included). Multitasking capabilities The HP Color LaserJet 2820/2830/2840 all-in-one products are designed to carry out multiple tasks simultaneously. You can initiate tasks when they are needed, without waiting. The HP LaserJet all-in-one products perform multiple tasks such as printing, scanning, copying, faxing, and sending faxes directly from a computer (PC faxing). Depending on which functions are in use, the HP LaserJet all-in-one product can perform many functions at the same time. This high level of multitasking is made possible by the two separate paper paths (a print paper path and a scan paper path) in the HP LaserJet all-in-one products. Additionally, these products feature at least 96 MB of memory that can efficiently manage multiple tasks, and a scan-ahead feature that quickly clears the scan paper path for subsequent jobs. The following table shows which tasks the HP LaserJet all-in-one products can perform while another function is already in use. NOTE The HP LaserJet all-in-one products can perform multiple tasks when directly connected to a computer or when connected to a network. The fax and scan functions are not available when using a Windows sharing (peer-to-peer) connection. NOTE The HP Color LaserJet 2820 all-in-one product does not support faxing.
