NOTE: HP recommends that you use your program to prepare and preview your document for printing,
and then use the HP print driver to print and saddle stitch your booklet.
Use the following steps to create a booklet by using the print 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 print driver.
Add a cover: Add a cover for the first page by selecting a different paper type that is the same size
as the rest of the booklet. The cover can be a weight different from the rest of the booklet.
Use saddle stitching: Paper must be fed into the product short edge first. The product 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.
The booklet-printing feature of the multifunction finisher supports the saddle stitch and fold feature for the following paper sizes:
A3
A4-Rotated (A4-R)*
Letter-Rotated (Letter-R)*

Use this feature to specify the font number for the user-soft default font using the source that is specified in the Font Source menu item. The product assigns a number to each font and lists it on the PCL font list (available from the Administration menu).
If Font Source and Font Number indicate a contour font, then use this feature to select a default pitch (for a fixed-spaced font).
If Font Source and Font Number indicate a contour font, then use this feature to select a default point size (for a proportional-spaced font).

Use this feature to select any one of several available symbol sets from the control panel. A symbol set is a unique grouping of all the characters in a font.
Use this feature to configure whether a carriage return (CR) is appended to each line feed (LF) encountered in backwards­compatible PCL jobs (pure text, no job control).
This option is for users who are generating their own PCL, which could include extra form feeds that would cause blank pages to be printed. When Yes is selected, form feeds are ignored if the page is blank.
Use this feature to select and maintain input trays by number when you are not using the product driver or when the software program has no option for tray selection.

Understand paper and print media use

This product supports a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in this user guide. Paper or print media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems:
Poor print quality
Increased jams
Premature wear on the product, requiring repair
For best results, use only HP-brand paper and print media designed for laserjets or multiuse. Do not use paper or print media made for inkjet printers. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot recommend the use of other brands of media because HP cannot control their quality.
It is possible for paper to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and/or humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.
CAUTION: Using paper or print media that does not meet Hewlett-Packard's specifications might
cause problems for the product, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service agreements.

Configure trays

The product might automatically prompt you to configure a tray for type and size when you load media into the tray.
The following message appears on the control panel: Tray <X> [type] [size] To change size or type,
touch “Modify”. To accept, touch “OK”..
NOTE: The prompt does not appear if you are printing from Tray 1 and Tray 1 is configured for Any
Size and Any Type.
NOTE: If you have used other HP LaserJet printer models, you might be accustomed to configuring
Tray 1 to First mode or Cassette mode. On the HP LaserJet M9059 MFP, setting Tray 1 size and type to Any Size is equivalent to First mode. Setting size or type for Tray 1 to a setting other than Any
Size is equivalent to Cassette mode.

Configure a tray when loading media

1. Load media in the tray. Close the tray if you are using Tray 2, 3, or 4.
2. If the tray configuration message appears, touch OK to accept the detected size, or touch Modify
to choose a different paper size.
3. If modifying the tray configuration, select the size.
NOTE: The product automatically detects most media sizes in Trays 2, 3, and 4.
4. If modifying the tray configuration, select the paper type.
5. Touch Exit.

Configure a tray by using the Supplies Status button on the touchscreen

You can also configure the trays for type and size without a prompt from the product.
1. Scroll to and touch Supplies Status.
2. Touch the desired tray.
3. Touch Modify.
4. Select the size and type. If you select a custom type, use the numeric keypad to set the X dimension
and the Y dimension, and then touch OK.
5. Touch OK.
6. Touch OK again.

Select the media by source, type, or size

In the Microsoft Windows operating system, three settings affect how the print driver selects media when you send a print job. Source, Type, and Size settings appear in the Page Setup, Print, or Print Properties dialog boxes in most software programs. Unless you change these settings, the product automatically selects a tray using the default settings.
ENWW Configure trays 61
Page 80
Source
To print by Source, select a specific tray from which to pull. The product will try to print from this tray regardless of the type or size in the tray. If the tray you select is configured for a type or size that does not match your print job, the product waits until you load the expected media in the tray. It begins printing as soon as the media is loaded.
Type and Size
With Type or Size selected, the product pulls from whichever tray has the correct type and size of media. This is similar to locking out trays and helps protect special media from accidental use.
For example, if you select plain paper, the product will pull only from a tray that has plain paper; it will not pull from a tray that has letterhead.
Selecting media by Type and Size can improve print quality for heavy paper, glossy paper, or transparencies. Always print by Type for special print media, such as labels or transparencies; print by Size for envelopes.
To print by Type or Size, select Type or Size from the Page Setup dialog box, the Print dialog box, or the Print Properties dialog box depending on the software program.
TIP: If you print on a certain type or size of media often, configure a tray for that type or size. Then,
whenever you select that type or size, the product always uses the same tray.

Security features

This section explains important security features that are available for the product:

Secure the embedded Web server

Secure Disk Erase

Security lock
Authentication
Lock the control-panel menus
Secure the embedded Web server
Configure a password for access to the embedded Web server to prevent unauthorized users from changing the product settings.
1. Open the embedded Web server. See
2. Click the Settings tab.
3. On the left side of the window, click Security.
4. Type the password next to New Password, and type it again next to Verify Password.
5. Click Apply. Make note of the password and store it in a safe place.
Secure Disk Erase
Use the Secure Disk Erase feature to protect deleted data from unauthorized access. This feature can securely erase print and copy jobs from the hard drive.
Secure Disk Erase offers the following levels of disk security:
Non-Secure Fast Erase. This is a simple file-table erase function. It is the fastest mode. It removes
access to the file, but the data in the file remains on the disk until it is overwritten by subsequent data-storage operations. Non-Secure Fast Erase is the default erase mode.
Secure Fast Erase. This function removes access to the file, and it erases the file data from the
disk. It does this by overwriting the data with a fixed identical character pattern. It is slower than Non-Secure Fast Erase, but meets U.S. Department of Defense 5220-22.M requirements for the clearing of disk media.
Secure Sanitizing Erase. This level is similar to the Secure Fast Erase, but it overwrites the data
with two more passes. It uses an algorithm that prevents residual data persistence. This mode significantly impacts performance, but it meets U.S. Department of Defense 5220-22.M requirements for sanitization of disk media.
Embedded Web server on page 68.
Data affected
Data affected (covered) by the Secure Disk Erase feature includes temporary files that are created during the print and copying process, stored jobs, proof and hold jobs, disk-based fonts, disk-based macros (forms), stored fax files, address books, and HP and third-party applications.
NOTE: Stored jobs are securely overwritten only when they have been deleted through the Retrieve
Job menu on the product after the appropriate erase mode has been set.
ENWW Security features 77
Page 96
This feature does not impact data that is stored on flash-based product non-volatile RAM (NVRAM) that is used to store default settings, page counts, and similar data. This feature does not affect data that is stored on a system RAM disk (if one is used). This feature does not impact data that is stored on the flash-based system boot RAM.
Changing the Secure Disk Erase mode does not overwrite previous data on the disk, nor does it immediately perform a full-disk sanitization. Changing the Secure Disk Erase mode changes how the product cleans up temporary data for jobs after the erase mode has been changed.
Gain access to Secure Disk Erase
Use HP Web Jetadmin to gain access to and set the Secure Disk Erase feature.
Additional Information
