Accessibility

The printer provides a number of features that make it accessible for people with disabilities. Visual

The HP software provided with the printer is accessible for users with visual impairments or low vision by using your operating system's accessibility options and features. The software also supports most assistive technology such as screen readers, Braille readers, and voice-to-text applications. For users who are color blind, colored buttons and tabs used in the HP software have simple text or icon labels that convey the appropriate action.

Mobility

For users with mobility impairments, the HP software functions can be executed through keyboard commands. The HP software also supports Windows accessibility options such as StickyKeys, ToggleKeys, FilterKeys, and MouseKeys. The printer doors, buttons, paper trays, and paper-width guides can be operated by users with limited strength and reach.

Optimize paper usage by printing on both sides of the paper.

Save ink and paper when printing web content with HP Smart Print. For more information, visit www.hp.com/go/smartprint.

Change the print mode to a draft setting. The draft setting uses less ink.

Do not clean the printhead unnecessarily. Doing so wastes ink and shortens the life of the cartridges.

In addition, you can configure specific scan settings for each scan destination, allowing you to make sure that the best settings are being used for each specific task.

HP Digital Fax

Never lose important faxes misplaced within a stack of paper pages again!

With HP Digital Fax, you can save incoming, black-and-white faxes to a computer folder on your network for easy sharing and storage, or you can forward faxes through email—allowing you to receive important faxes from anywhere while working away from the office.

In addition, you can turn off fax printing altogether — saving money on paper and ink, as well as helping reduce paper consumption and waste.
