Software features

Automatic configuration, Update Now, and Preconfiguration features are available with the HP LaserJet 9040mfp/9050mfp.
Driver Autoconfiguration
The HP LaserJet PCL 6 and PCL 5e drivers for Windows and the PS drivers for Windows 2000 and Windows XP feature automatic discovery and driver configuration for product accessories at the time of installation.
14 Chapter 1 The basics ENWW
Update Now
If you have modified the configuration of the MFP since installation, the driver can be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support bidirectional communication. Click the Update Now button to automatically reflect the new configuration in the driver.
Note The Update Now feature is not supported from the client machine in a Point-and-Print
environment. Update Now can be used for locally-installed MFPs, and by the Point-and-Print server.
HP Driver Preconfiguration
HP Driver Preconfiguration is a set of tools that you can use to customize and distribute HP software in managed corporate printing environments. By using HP Driver Preconfiguration, information technology, (IT) administrators can preconfigure the printing and device defaults for HP printer drivers before installing the drivers in the network environment. For more information, see the HP Driver Preconfiguration Support Guide, which is available at www.hp.com/support/
lj9040mfp or www.hp.com/support/lj9050mfp.

Drivers

Use the printer drivers to gain access to the MFP features and allow the computer to communicate with the MFP (by using a printer language). Check the installation notes, the readme file, and the late-breaking readme file on the CD-ROM for additional software and languages.
The following table lists the printer drivers that are included with the MFP. The most recent drivers are available at www.hp.com/support/lj9040mfp you do not have access to the Internet, see the HP support flyer.) Depending on the configuration of Windows-based computers, the installation program for the printing system software automatically checks the computer for Internet access in order to obtain the latest drivers.
Note The PCL 5e printer driver for all operating systems, plus the PCL 6 and PS printer drivers for
Windows NT 4.0, are available on the CD-ROM. However, these printer drivers are not installed during typical installation. To install one of these drivers, use the Add Printer Wizard.

You can obtain Model Scripts for UNIX and Linux by downloading them from the Internet or by requesting them from an HP-authorized service or support provider. You can download the UNIX installers at www.hp.com/support/net_printing
.
Note If the printer driver that you want is not on the CD-ROM or it is not listed in this section, check the
installation notes, the readme file, and the late-breaking readme file to see if the printer driver is supported. If it is not supported, contact the manufacturer or distributor of the program that you are using and request a driver for the MFP.
Additional drivers
The following drivers are not included on the CD-ROM, but are available from the Internet or from HP Customer Care.
OS/2 PCL 5e/6 printer driver
OS/2 PS printer driver
UNIX model scripts

HP OpenVMS drivers
Note The OS/2 drivers are available from IBM and are packaged with OS/2. They are not available in
Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese, Korean, or Japanese.
Note The HP OpenVMS drivers are available at h71000.www7.hp.com.
Choose the correct printer driver for your needs
Choose a printer driver based on the way that you use the MFP. Certain MFP features are available only in the PCL 6 drivers. See the printer driver Help for available features.
Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the MFP features. For general office printing,
the PCL 6 driver is recommended to provide optimum performance and print quality.
Use the PCL 5e driver if you need backward compatibility with previous PCL printer drivers
or older products.
Use the PS driver if you are printing primarily from PostScript-specific programs such as
Adobe and Corel, for compatibility with PostScript Level 3 needs, or for PS font DIMM support.
Note The MFP automatically switches between PS and PCL printer languages.
Printer driver Help
Each printer driver has help screens that can be activated by clicking the Help button, pressing the
F1 key, or clicking the question mark symbol in the upper-right corner in the printer driver
(depending on the Windows operating system in use). These help screens give detailed information about the specific driver. Printer driver Help is separate from the software program Help.

The installer does not support MFP installation or MFP object creation on Novell servers. It supports only direct-mode network installations between Windows computers and an MFP. To install your MFP and create objects on a Novell server, use an HP utility (such as HP Web Jetadmin or HP Install Network Printer Wizard) or a Novell utility (such as NWadmin).
To install the printing system software 1 Make sure that the HP Jetdirect print server is configured correctly for the network by
printing a configuration page (see To print an information page). On the second page that prints, locate the MFP IP address. You might need this address to complete network installation. If the MFP is using DHCP IP configuration, use the name on the second page. Otherwise, if the MFP is shut down for an extended period of time, DHCP does not guarantee that the same IP address will be issued.

ENWW Helpful software for increased flexibility 23
Embedded Web server
This MFP is equipped with an embedded Web server, which provides access to information about MFP and network activities. A Web server provides an environment in which Web programs can run, similar to the way an operating system, such as Windows, provides an environment for programs to run on your computer. The output from these programs can then be viewed in a Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.
When a Web server is “embedded, ” that means that it resides on a hardware device (such as an MFP) or in firmware, rather than as software that is loaded on a network server.
The advantage of an embedded Web server is that it provides an interface to the MFP that anyone who has a network-connected computer or a standard Web browser can use. You do not need to install or configure any special software. For more information about the HP embedded Web s erver, see the Embedded Web Server User Guide. You can find this guide on the CD­ROM that was included with the MFP.
For information about the features and functionality of the embedded Web server, see
Embedded Web server.
HP Toolbox
The HP Toolbox is a Windows-only software program that can be used for the following tasks:
check the MFP status
print internal MF P page s
You can view the HP Toolbox when the MFP is connected to a network. You must have performed a complete software installation before using the HP Toolbox.

Communicating by using the HPJetdirect embedded print server
The MFP has an embedded print server. If you cannot communicate with the MFP over the network, check the operation of the embedded print server. Check the embedded Jetdirect configuration page for the message I/O CARD READY, and for the correct network configuration settings. See To print a configuration page for instructions.
Verify that the print server was able to link to the network automatically:
Check that a link LED on the MFP’s LAN (RJ-45) connector is lit, which indicates a
successful link. A link failure is indicated when both LEDs are off.
Check the embedded Jetdirect configuration page for error messages. The message LOSS
OF CARRIER ERROR indicates a link failure.
For link failures, check all of the network cable connections. In addition, you can try to manually configure the link settings on the embedded print server by using the MFP control-panel menus (MENU, CONFIGURE DEVICE, I/O, EMBEDDED JETDIRECT MENU, LINK SPEED).
Note HP Jetdirect print servers are available for many different network connections, including
802.11 networks.
Communicating by using the HPJetdirect print server
If you cannot communicate with the MFP over the network, check the operation of the print server. Check the Jetdirect configuration page for the message I/O CARD READY.

You can also use the embedded Web server to perform the print-job management functions that would usually be done at the MFP control panel, including these functions:
Changing MFP settings
Changing MFP configuration
Canceling print jobs
To gain access to the embedded Web server
Note To use the embedded Web server, you must have an IP-based network and a Web browser.
In your Web browser, type the IP address assigned to the MFP. For example, if the MFP IP address is 169.1.2.3, you would type this address: http://169.1.2.3
