Supported configurations Note Direct (local) connections The HP LaserJet 1010 series printer is connected directly to the host computer with Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable or a parallel (HP LaserJet 1015 only) cable. In this configuration, the printer is not shared; a single user has complete physical control over the printer. Most users are familiar with using peripherals that are directly connected to their computers. A user can gain access to all of the capabilities of the printer in this configuration. Network connections The HP LaserJet 1010 series printer also supports network connections with an HP Jetdirect print server. This print server is optional for the HP LaserJet 1010 series printer. Wireless connections The HP LaserJet 1010 series printer models also support the IEEE 802.11b standard for wireless networking and Bluetooth™ wireless connectivity options. The available HP Jetdirect wireless print servers and HP Bluetooth printer adapters attach on the back of the printer to either the USB or parallel port. IEEE 802.11b standard With the wireless HP Jetdirect 802.11b print server, HP peripherals can be placed anywhere in the office or home and connected to a wireless network running Microsoft, Apple, Netware, UNIX, or Linux network operating systems. This wireless technology provides a high-quality printing solution without the physical constraints of wiring. Data transmission rates vary according to system architecture and distance from the access point. Use the HP Install Network Printer Wizard to install the network software. HP Jetdirect 802.11b print servers are available for USB and parallel connections. 20 Chapter 3 - Product requirements ENWW
