Superior HP print quality

The HP Color LaserJet 3800 series printer features an enhanced version of HP ImageREt 3600, a suite of innovative technologies HP developed to provide professional, high-quality color documents and images.

The enhanced HP ImageREt 3600 system is designed to deliver reliable print quality regardless of the printing environment and includes a media type sensor, an environmental sensor, and intelligent, automatic calibration. Automatic internal color adjustment provides consistent color over a range of environments.

The HP Color LaserJet 3800 series printer is designed together with the new HP ColorSphere toner and HP papers to provide optimized printing results. New HP ColorSphere toner features gloss levels that are significantly improved over previous HP color toners when printing on glossy paper. The result is brilliant, intense colors and excellent photo quality output for your business documents.

HP Color Access Control solution

HP Color Access Control solution makes color printing more affordable than ever by helping you to control who uses color and when they use it:

• Assign color access to specific users or workgroups.

Use either your printer’s embedded Web server or HP Web Jetadmin’s fleet configuration capability to designate who has access to color printing. That way, people who truly need color—such as your sales team and marketing department—can use it.

• Assign color access by application. Designate certain applications for printing color and others for printing black-and-white to ensure that users only print color on their most important print jobs, and that other printouts— such as Web pages—are always black-and-white.

• Shut down color completely or temporarily disable color capability. Disable color printing on shared printers—

locking out all individuals and workgroups—so you can save your color resources for special projects or seasonal needs. HP Web Jetadmin’s Print Driver Pre-configuration Plug-in lets IT Administrators set users’ print settings to control color printing by print queue.

• Track color use by job, by user, and by device. HP Web Jetadmin’s Report Generation Plug-in generates real-time and periodic usage reports that make it easy to track color use by job, by user, and by device. Plus, it allows you to easily allocate costs to individual departments.

Standard and available features vary according to model. For more information, see “Series at a glance” on page 2.

Billing solutions are an optional feature available at an additional cost through HP’s solution partners.

HP printer management tools

Who says you can’t do it all? With a little help, HP knows you can. HP makes printer management and consolidated supplies reordering trouble-free.

• View printer and supplies status, perform simple troubleshooting, and manage printing functions for an individual printer from your computer, rather than the printer control panel, through the print driver Services tab (for end users) or through the HP Embedded Web Server (for IT professionals).

• Manage groups of printers from a single access point. For IT professionals, HP Web Jetadmin helps you install, configure, and remotely manage all of your network peripherals through a simple Web interface.

• For end users and office managers, HP Easy Printer Care Software helps you manage up to 15 HP printers from your computer to keep them running at their best. You can also proactively manage supplies and reorder online with the click of a button.

HP Universal Print Driver for Windows

Improve productivity, increase satisfaction, and use valuable resources more effectively with the HP Universal Print Driver for Windows. The HP Universal Print Driver for Windows includes separate HP PCL5 and HP postscript emulation editions of a single driver that gives end-users access to almost any HP printer—without the need to install separate drivers. At the same time, it helps IT manage printer fleets more effectively by providing features such as usage tracking and the ability to easily create, import, and alter HP Managed Printer Lists.

Free as a download, the HP Universal Print Driver for Windows delivers functionality on par with HP’s premium drivers—giving users access to features such as two-sided printing, hard disk, input trays, output bins, stapling, and more. Download the HP Universal Print Driver for Windows at www.hp.com/go/universalprintdriver.
