Software for Windows Note When you install the software for Windows, you can directly connect the printer to a computer using a USB cable or you can connect the printer to the network using an optional external HP Jetdirect print server. Different software is available depending on the type of installation you chose. See the getting started guide for installation instructions, and see the Readme for latest software information. The following software is available to all users of the printer, whether you connected the printer directly to a computer using a USB cable, or whether you connected the printer to the network using an optional external HP Jetdirect print server. Printer drivers A printer driver is a software component that provides access to printer features and provides the means for the computer to communicate with the printer. For help using your printer driver, see "Gaining access to printer driver settings" on page 30. Using Help The printer driver has Help dialog boxes that can be activated from the Help button in the printer driver, the F1 key on the computer keyboard, or the question mark symbol (?) in the upper-right corner of the printer driver. These Help dialog boxes give detailed information about the specific printer driver. Help for the printer driver is separate from the Help for your program.
