Technology backgrounders
Bidirectional communication
The HP LaserJet 9000 Series printing system software uses a new bidirectional communication
technology. Previous versions of printing system software used Cooperative Object Layering Abstraction
(COLA) architecture.
Bidirectional communication describes printer response to data inquiries from the computer and reports
back information, such as what type of print media is available or what accessories are connected to the
printer. If a printer does not have this capability (no bidirectional mode), it can only accept commands
from the host and cannot report information back.
Driver Autoconfiguration and Job Status and Alerts use bidirectional communications software. The
typical installation installs Driver Autoconfiguration in supported environments that contain the
bidirectional software. Use the custom installation when you do not want these features.
2
Software Technical Reference for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers
Bidirectional communication depends upon your network operating system and the method used to
connect your printer to the network.
The following table provides information about the operating systems and network environments that
support bidirectional communication for the HP LaserJet 9000 printer.

Euro character
The euro is the name for the currency of the European Union (EU). Use of this unit was launched on
January 1, 1999. The euro has changed the way business is conducted in Europe and has affected every
company and industry on the continent. It is vital that companies understand and prepare for the changes
the Euro brings.
The HP LaserJet 9000 printer includes euro characters for each of the internal fonts. The HP LaserJet
9000 printer can print the euro character in the Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0,
and Windows 2000 environments. Hewlett-Packard is committed to maximizing document portability
through supporting and promoting euro symbol standards.

Installer features
The common installer is designed to provide a simple and consistent installation method for the
product line. The common installer is available for the Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows Me,
Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000 operating systems.
The HP LaserJet 9000 printer features a new common installer. This new installer offers the
following features:
• The HP LaserJet 9000 software CD-ROM features a CD browser. See “CD browser for
Windows systems.”
• Installation of Acrobat Reader 4.05.
• The typical installation requires less interaction than previous versions.
• The installer is Web-enabled, allowing access to the HP Web site for the latest software
components and drivers.
• Network connection is integrated so that you can install drivers and connect to a network
printer in a single process.
• Automatic-sensing of the Windows operating system and language (Windows 95, Windows
98, Windows Me, Windows NT 4.0, and Windows 2000 only). Though system language is
automatically sensed, the installer allows selection of any of the languages on the
HP LaserJet 9000 software CD browser.
• Full localization and enabling for double-byte fonts.
• The HP LaserJet Uninstaller utility.
• Product registration using the Web and e-mail.
Software Technical Reference for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers
All of the Windows system components are installed by using the HP LaserJet 9000 printing
system installer. The installer automatically senses your language of choice and operating
system. It offers selections for each printer model. You can select the type of installation you
prefer: Typical Installation or Custom Installation.
If you have an Internet connection, the installer will sense the connection and provide you with
the capability to connect to the HP Web site to download the latest printing system software. The
installer compares the versions of the software components on the HP LaserJet 9000 software
CD-ROM to those on the HP Web site. If newer versions are on the HP Web site, the installer
downloads them.
CD browser for Windows systems
In previous versions of the printing system software, you had to locate and run the SETUP.EXE
file, which started the installer. For the Microsoft Windows environment (Windows 95, Windows
98, Windows Me, Windows 2000, and Windows NT 4.0), the HP LaserJet 9000 software CDROM provides an interactive CD browser that not only lets you install the printer drivers and
related components, but also provides access to online product registration, user documentation,
a customization utility, Adobe Acrobat Reader software, and optional HP software.

Driver Autoconfiguration
The HP LaserJet 9000 PCL 6 and PCL 5e drivers for Windows feature bidirectional
communication technology which, in supported network environments, provides automatic
discovery and driver configuration for printer accessories at the time of installation or later, if
needed. The HP LaserJet 9000 installer senses whether or not the installation environment
supports bidirectional communication. If the environment supports bidirectional communication,
the installer presents Driver Autoconfiguration as an installable component for a typical
installation and an optional installable component for a custom installation. The Driver
Autoconfiguration component installs the bidirectional communication software. If the installation
environment does not support bidirectional communication, the Driver Autoconfiguration option is
not displayed during installation. However, installed drivers will configure automatically based on
the HP LaserJet 9000 bundle selected during installation of the printing system software.
For detailed information about using Driver Autoconfiguration, see “Driver Autoconfiguration" in
the "Overview of printer features" section.
NOTE: Parallel and USB connections do not support bidirectional
communication. Therefore, Driver Autoconfiguration is not available with
those types of connections.

Customized silent installer
This option lets you select the printing system components to include in the silent install. You can
select the operating system, language, printer models, drivers, utilities, and documentation to
install.
Command line silent install
This method cannot be customized and installs only the printing system components included in
the typical installation.
NOTE: Values that follow equal signs ( = ) in a command line must not contain
intervening spaces.
Method 1: Command line
Type the following at the command line (do not type the beginning and ending quotation marks):
"<CD-ROM-ROOT>/SETUP/SETUP.EXE /U /PORT=XXXX /PRINTER=N /PD=N"
Method 2: SETUP.LST
Use the SETUP.LST file to specify command line arguments to the installer for an unattended
installation. You can send command line arguments in one of the following ways:
• Send the command directly to the installer
12
Software Technical Reference for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers
• Send the command using the SETUP.LST file located in the setup directory
• Use a combination of the two previous methods
For example, this file contains two options: /port and /printer. The installer operates as normal
because the /u option has not been specified. If you use setup /u for the installer, it operates in
unattended mode and uses the two values specified in the defaults section of the SETUP.LST
file. If you use setup /u /printer=1 for the installer, it operates in unattended mode and chooses
HP LaserJet 9000 n. (The options specified on the command line override the options specified in
the SETUP.LST file.)
The options available can also include the /u option. Using this option key makes the installer
always operate as unattended. The following descriptions explain the available options:
• /u. Signals the installer to use the specified port and printer given on the command line (or in
this file), and to use all default selections. Installation then proceeds without prompting the
user.
• /port=xxxx. Used to specify the default port when performing an unattended install. The
value specified by xxxx should be a valid port and should contain no spaces.
• /printer=n. Used to specify the default printer when doing an unattended install. The value
specified by n is an integer that references the list of available printers. For example, the
following printers are available for the HP LaserJet 9000 printer installation:
0 = HP LaserJet 9000 printer
1 = HP LaserJet 9000 n printer
2 = HP LaserJet 9000 dn printer
3 = HP LaserJet 9000 hns printer
• /pd=n. Used to specify whether the selected printer is the default printer, when you have
multiple printers connected to your network. The value specified by n is an integer (that is, 0
or 1). For this argument, entering one sets the selected printer as the default printer. Entering
zero (0) or not specifying a value at all sets the printer as a non-default printer.
You can preset these options in the SETUP.LST file located in the root directory of the
HP LaserJet 9000 software CD-ROM. In the defaults section, add the following syntax:
[Defaults]
Options= /port=<value> /printer=<number> /pd=<number>
Optional software
The HP LaserJet 9000 software CD browser provides links to install or download HP Web JetAdmin as
optional software.
HP Web JetAdmin
This software program is a printer management tool that allows network administrators to

Printer features
Overview of printer features
The printing system software for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers includes the following features:
• Driver Autoconfiguration
• Include back cover
• PS 3 emulation
• Product registration (WebReg)
• Set Registration
• Job Retention in RAM
• Job Status and Alerts
• Remote firmware upgrade
• HP Web Access
Driver Autoconfiguration
Software Technical Reference for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers
The HP LaserJet 9000 PCL 6 and PCL 5e drivers for Windows offer a new Driver
Autoconfiguration feature. Driver Autoconfiguration works in three ways:
• In environments that do not support bidirectional communication, the driver automatically
configures options based on the HP LaserJet 9000 printer bundle selected during the
installation of the printing system software. For example, if the HP LaserJet 9000 DN is
selected, the driver automatically configures the optional duplexing unit. There is no
communication between workstation and printer. Therefore, configuration is based solely on
the definition of the printer bundle. Using the same example, if the HP LaserJet
9000 DN is selected during installation, the duplexing unit is configured in the driver whether
the optional duplexing unit is physically present or not.
• In environments that support bidirectional communication, the workstation communicates with
the printer, determines the physical configuration, and then configures the driver accordingly.
• If the configuration of the HP LaserJet 9000 printer changes after installation, the driver can
be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support
bidirectional communication. For example, if the base printer model is installed and an
optional duplexing unit is added later, you can automatically configure the duplexing unit in
the driver by clicking the Update Now button on the driver’s Configure tab.
The bidirectional communication software necessary for the second and third methods of Driver
Autoconfiguration is included in a typical installation when installing a network printer in supported
environments. The feature is also a selectable option for a custom installation.
15
Software Technical Reference for the HP LaserJet 9000 printers
Include back cover
This feature lets you include a blank back cover on a document, or to include a back cover from a
different paper source than that used in the remainder of the document. You can also select a
first page from an alternative paper source.
For more information about using this feature, see the heading "Back Cover" under “Paper Tab
Features” in the section about PCL 6 and PCL 5e driver features.
PS 3 emulation support for the HP LaserJet 9000 printer
The HP LaserJet 9000 printer PS Level 3 Emulation maintains full compatibility with Adobe
PS Level 3 when PS Level 3 soft fonts are purchased from Adobe.
A set of 92 PS Level 3 soft fonts is included with the printing system software. If you want to
permanently install the fonts in the printer, PS Level 3 emulation fonts are also available from
HP in an optional font DIMM.
Users of Adobe-licensed applications might also have the right to use the Adobe PS level 3
printer drivers from Adobe with the HP LaserJet 9000 printer PS Level 3 emulation PPD,
available on the HP LaserJet 9000 printer software CD-ROM or from the HP Web site. When
using the Adobe PS Level 3 printer driver, users must comply with all Adobe licensing
agreements, as stated on the Adobe Web site at
http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/license.html. See “Font support” for a list of the
additional fonts.
