technology update
Thermal Inkjet Technology
Thermal Inkjet Technology is based on HP’s disposable ink cartridges and printheads. Each
printhead contains a small reservoir known as the firing chamber, filled with a tiny measure
of ink. This ink is heated with a thin-film resistor layered above the firing chamber. As the
ink heats up, it expands to form a bubble. The bubble expands until it bursts, at which point
the ink is forced through the nozzle located below the firing chamber and out onto the
paper. This process is repeated up to 12,000 times per second, and creates residual heat
in the resistor. A layer of silicon is placed above the resistor to cool it by transferring the
residual heat awa
ColorSmart II
ColorSmart II is used by the PCL5 and PostScript drivers. This technology optimizes the color
and halftoning for each element in a document (such as text, graphics, and photographs),
providing consistent color treatment for everything on a page.
ColorSmart II uses a smooth halftone for photographs and a detail halftone for text, raster
graphics, and vector graphics. When transparencies are printed, HP ColorSmart II chooses
specialized colors to provide the best projection quality.
ColorSmart II is also the most reliable setting for PANTONE color reproduction.
ColorSmart III
ColorSmart III enables the printer driver to scan the contents (text, graphics, and images) of
pages to generate optimal settings for each document printed. ColorSmart III further extends
ColorSmart technology with new image-enhancement tools:
• HP SmartFocus—A new algorithm that improves image clarity in high-resolution files, as
well as continues optimization for low-resolution images from the Internet or
multimedia sources. Available with HPA.
• HP Automatic Contrast Enhancement (ACE)—Brightens colors and sharpens details in
images captured under poor lighting conditions. Available with HPA.
• sRGB (standard Red, Green, Blue) calibration—An industry peripheral color standard
developed jointly by HP and Microsoft that improves color matching between the
source image, monitor, and printed page.
• Intel MMX/SIMD technology—Allows the driver to process media-rich data in parallel
for faster processing of color and image graphics.
• CIECAM97s—Improves color maps for more accurate skin tones and richer hues.
• Object based color mapping enables optimum color quality. Available in PCL5.
• Color control settings enable manual adjustment in saturation, brightness, and tone.
Available in HPA.

PhotoREt III
Photo Resolution Enhancement technology enables business inkjet printers to produce photoquality color images. PhotoREt III’s Color Layering technology combines small ink-dropvolume ink cartridges, vibrant, fade-resistant color inks, new halftoning algorithms, and
specially developed HP Premium Plus Photo paper to deliver outstanding image quality and
performance. The increased capacity of HP business inkjet 2230/2280 printers place up to
20 drops of ink in a single dot that creates finer color control and produces five times the
number of colors produced by PhotoREt II printers. PhotoREt III enables faster color print
speeds without sacrificing speed for print qualit
UnderPrinting
UnderPrinting prints a small amount of color ink (cyan or magenta) underneath the black
ink. The pigment-based black ink penetrates the media at a slower rate than the dye-based
color inks. UnderPrinting increases the penetration rate of the black ink.
The new printhead arrangement of the HP business inkjet 2230/2280 allows color ink to
be printed on the page before the black ink in both carriage directions. Since black can
now be printed in both directions with UnderPrinting, faster throughput can be achieved.
UnderPrinting also provides significantly improved smudgefastness, dry time, K Optical
Density, and print quality.

multipurpose tray installation
It is strongly recommended that two people lift or move the printer. The printer is top-heavy
and can tip if lifted by only one person. The side of the printer that holds the ink cartridges
and printheads is considerably heavier than the other side.
Do not attempt to move the printer by holding on to Tray 2 in the front or Tray 1 in the
back. This can damage the printer and might cause you to lose your grip on the printer.
The printer comes with a single sheet manual feed unit in the Tray 1 location. You can
purchase a multipurpose tray as an optional accessory, which is installed in place of the
single sheet manual feed unit in the Tray 1 location.
The multipurpose tray is designed to handle a variety of media types and sizes, including
heavy paper and transparencies. The multipurpose tray is recommended if you print often
on heavy paper or other special media that requires a straight-through paper path because
it can hold up to 100 sheets of media.

life is 24 months.
• Install-By Date -- Date by which a PC/PH/IC should be installed in a printer to
receive the full warranty period and optimal performance of the product.
• If cartridge is installed on or before Install-By Date, cartridge will expire after 30
months.
• If cartridge is installed after Install-By Date, cartridge will expire 54 months after
manufacture date; ink cartridge will have an In-Printer Life shorter than 30 months.
• Cartridge cannot be used at or beyond 54 months after manufacture date.
• Printheads do not expire, but will likely wear out and fail over time (expected life ~2.5
years per printhead).
• In-Printer Life -- Length of time after the Install-By Date. Maximum In-Printer Life is 30
months from Install-By Date.
• Warranty Interval -- Begins on Manufacture Date and ends on End-of-Warranty
Date. Warranty Interval is 6 months.
• End-of-Warranty Date -- The latest date that a product is warranted to be free
from defects in material and workmanship, with no appreciable decrease in
performance during the warranty period.
• End-of-Life Date -- A fixed date through which a product is technically capable of
working with no appreciable decrease in performance.
• Expiration Date -- A printer-generated date calculated at the time a TIJ3.0 ink
cartridge is installed.

guidelines for loading paper
The guidelines for loading paper are:
• The default size for all trays is 216 by 279 mm (8.5 by 11 inches) or A4.
• For Tray 2 and Tray 3, insert media with side for printing face-down with the short edge
of the paper facing the rear of the printer. To print horizontally (landscape
orientation), select landscape.
• When loading Tray 1, position the media with side for printing face-up with the left
edge of the media against the left edge of the tray(looking from back) . For
preprinted forms and letterhead, load the media with the top edge feeding into the
printer first.
• If you purchased the optional multipurpose tray, which is installed in the Tray 1
location, position the media face-up against the right edge of the tray first (facing
front of printer), and then slide the media down into the tray. Load the media printside up. For preprinted forms and letterhead, load the media with the top edge
feeding into the printer first.
• To prevent jams, load only one type of media at a time into a tray. Also, when adding
media, always remove the existing media and realign the media width and length
guides to fit the new media.
• Always use media that conforms to the printer specifications. For more information
about types of media that can be used with the printer, see the topic “paper sizes,
capacities, and weights.”
• Do not use paper that is heavily textured or does not absorb ink well. This type of paper
can cause poorly filled graphics or text.
• The document margins must match (or exceed) a margin setting of 4 mm.
