Environmental features
Firmware updates provide the ability to upgrade the MFP firmware. To download the latest
firmware, go to easily send firmware updates to multiple products, use the HP Web Jetadmin software (go to
www.hp.com/go/webjetadmin).
NOTE: HP Web Jetadmin 10.0 or later is required for full support of this product.
Internal hard disk can be used to store selected print jobs. It can support RIP ONCE technology,
and can permanently store downloaded fonts and forms in the MFP. Unlike standard product memory, many items on the hard disk remain in the MFP even when the MFP is turned off. Fonts that are downloaded to the hard disk are available to all users of the MFP.
Optional EIO hard disk accessory provides additional capacity for storing fonts and forms. The MFP
does not use the EIO hard disk accessory for tasks such as RIP ONCE and stored jobs. The MFP uses the internal hard disk for these tasks. Both disks can be write-protected through software for additional security.

Booklets
If the stapler cannot be selected in the program or printer driver, it can be selected through the MFP control panel. See
You can gain access to the booklet feature in some software programs, such as desktop publishing programs. See the user guide that came with your program for information about making booklets.
If you are using a program that does not support booklet making, you can create booklets by using the HP printer driver.
NOTE: HP recommends that you use your program to prepare and preview your document for printing,
and then use the HP printer driver to print and saddle stitch your booklet.
Use the following steps to create a booklet by using the printer driver:
Prepare your booklet: Arrange the pages on a sheet (called booklet imposition) to create a booklet.
You can impose your booklet in your software program, or you can use the booklet-printing feature in printer driver.
Add a cover: Add a cover to your booklet by selecting a different first page with a different paper
type. You can also add a cover of the same paper type as your booklet. Booklet covers must be the same size as the rest of the sheets in the booklet. However, the cover can be a different weight from the rest of the booklet.
Use saddle stitching: Paper must be fed into the MFP short edge first. The MFP prompts you for
rotated paper. The multifunction finisher staples the center of your booklet (called saddle stitching). If your booklet contains only one sheet of paper, the multifunction finisher folds the sheet, but does not staple it. If the booklet contains more than one sheet of paper, the multifunction finisher staples the sheets, and then folds up to 10 sheets per booklet.
Staple documents on page 100 for instructions.
