Software for Windows
Windows printer drivers
A printer driver is the software that provides access to printer features and provides the means for the
computer to communicate with the device.
Printer preferences (driver)
Printer preferences control the device. You can change the default settings, such as media size and
type, printing multiple pages on a single sheet of media (N-up printing), resolution, and watermarks. You
can access the printer preferences in the following ways:
Through the software application that you are using to print. This only changes the settings for the
●
current software application.
Through the Windows operating system. This changes the default settings for all future print jobs.
●
NOTE: Because many software applications use a different method of accessing the printer
properties, the following section describes the most common methods used in Windows 2000 and
Windows XP.
Printer properties online Help
The printer properties online Help, also called the driver Help, includes specific information about the
functions in the printer properties. This online Help guides you through the process of changing your
printer default settings. For some drivers, online Help provides context-sensitive help that describes the
options for the driver feature you are currently using.
To access the printer properties online Help
1. From the software application, click File, and then click Print.
2. Click Properties, and then click Help.
Print-setting priorities
There are two ways to change print settings for this device: in the software application or in the printer
driver. Changes made in the software application override settings changed in the printer driver. Within
a software application, changes made in the Page Setup dialog box override changes made in the
Print dialog box.
If more than one method is available to change a particular print setting, use the method that has the
highest priority.
Additional Windows driver types (HP LaserJet P1500 network models)
The HP LaserJet P1500 network models also feature an available PCL 5e printer driver. Use the Add
Printer feature to install the driver.
8 Chapter 1 Purpose and scope ENWW
Install the Windows printer software
To install printer software for Windows Server 2003
See the operating system documentation for instructions on installing a printer driver.
To install printer software for Windows 2000 and XP
Insert the software CD that came with the device into the computer CD-ROM drive. Follow the onscreen
installation instructions to install the printer software.
NOTE: If the Welcome screen does not open, click Start on the Windows taskbar, click Run, type Z:
\setup (where Z is your CD drive letter), and click OK.
Change printer-driver settings for Windows
To change the settings for all print
jobs until the software program is
closed
1. On the File menu in the software
program, click Print.
2. Select the driver, and then click
Properties or Preferences.
The steps can vary; this procedure is
most common.
To change the default settings for all
print jobs
