Fleet upgradable and extensible

Designed to be upgradable, HP FutureSmart firmware helps you keep your HP printers,
MFPs, and network scanners up-to-date. Get the latest security enhancements, as well
as improvements to other productivity features. As technology evolves over time, your
compatible HP FutureSmart devices will be poised to adopt new features.

Device firmware has a significant effect on your imaging and printing environment. Like
a PC’s operating system, firmware coordinates hardware functions; runs the control
panel; determines what features are available when faxing, emailing, or scanning a
document; and provides device network security.

1

With traditional firmware, fleet-wide upgrades are cumbersome and time-consuming.
There is typically no support for the new imaging and printing features and capabilities
that are continually developed after a device is released.

HP FutureSmart allows your existing compatible HP devices to be equipped with the
same features as next-generation devices.1 Rather than driving device obsolescence
with technology changes, HP FutureSmart helps them remain useful and productive
for years to come.

• Uniquely upgradeable to provide investment protection for your fleet

• Designed for OS-like upgradability by letting IT upgrade on their own
maintenance schedule

• Maintains a consistent user interface, feature set, and device experience
across the fleet for the end user

• The world's most secure devices with detection and recovery capability

2

Easily deploy third-party solutions

HP FutureSmart devices use the HP Open Extensibility Platform (OXP). OXP creates a
unified environment that makes it easy for third-party software companies to design
solutions that integrate seamlessly with enabled imaging and printing devices.

Embedded security capabilities

HP FutureSmart firmware provides the latest solution, security, and fleet features for
your compatible HP Enterprise devices. By upgrading to HP FutureSmart 5, you will be
able to stay current with the features that enable the world’s most secure devices.

2

• HP SureStart validates the integrity of the BIOS code with self-healing by reverting to
a golden copy if needed.

• Whitelisting confirms the authenticity of the firmware code with an HP digitally
signed certificate, meeting government standards for security.

• Run-time intrusion detection with self-healing reboots automatically if attacked.

• HP Connection Inspector monitors and analyzes outbound network traffic with
self-healing automatic reboot if anomalies are detected.

What’s
new in HP
FutureSmart 5

Extend fleet consistency to new devices

HP FutureSmart 5 extends fleet consistency to the new HP LaserJet Enterprise
400 series devices, straight out of the box. These devices will be shipped with
HP FutureSmart 5 installed at the factory, so they will have a similar UI, features,
manageability, and security as the rest of the HP Enterprise fleet. In addition, all
other newly manufactured, compatible devices will ship from the factory with
HP FutureSmart 5 firmware pre-installed once the upgrade has been released; see
the table below for the full list of compatible devices.

1

Schedule and stage firmware upgrades

The new Directed Update capability makes the process of upgrading your firmware
easier. It offers the ability to stage firmware updates with HP Web Jetadmin and
defer the installation until later. Device reboots after updating can also be scheduled.
Plus, Directed Update offers the option to clean off depreciated or no-longer-needed
solutions at the time of updating.

Clean and simple

HP FutureSmart helps make it easy for your office users to be more productive. A
modern, tablet-like interface keeps things simple and intuitive across your fleet of
compatible HP Enterprise devices. Improved image preview takes the guesswork out
of scanning and copying. A scalable interface for the control panel improves future
extensibility and allows new possibilities for customization, along with a robust set of new
apps and usability features. The message center, with detailed information and helpful
animations, makes it easy to address device events. Best of all, HP FutureSmart 5 works
with both new and existing compatible HP Enterprise devices, allowing you to prepare for
the future, while enjoying the best HP has to offer today.

Count on consistency across the fleet

Inconsistency across your fleet can lead to higher IT costs. With HP FutureSmart, you
can maintain a reliable feature set and user experience across your fleet of enabled
HP Enterprise MFPs, printers, and network scanners. By providing consistent control
panels, menus, messages, and features, HP FutureSmart makes it easy and intuitive
to work among different devices.

Upgrade to a
modern interface

The simplified, modern­looking home screen
displays just four
core apps by default.
Additional apps are easily
accessed by swiping right
to left, like you would with
a smartphone or tablet.

HP FutureSmart also makes your printing and imaging environment easier to manage.
With HP Web Jetadmin, IT can centrally manage user interfaces and configure or update
HP FutureSmart feature settings across all compatible devices in the fleet.

Make the most of your device
investments through upgrades

HP FutureSmart firmware upgrades allow you to upgrade your compatible
HP FutureSmart devices with the latest features, security, and changes to device
functionality.1 Major new releases are easily identifiable with the release number
