Printer driver Help

Each printer driver has Help screens that can be activated from the Help button, the F1
key, or the question mark symbol on the upper-right corner of the printer driver screen
(depending on the Windows operating system used). Reach the printer driver screen by
clicking Print from your software program. These Help screens give detailed information
about the specific driver. The printer driver Help is separate from the software-program
Help.

Software for Macintosh computers

PostScript Printer Description files

The PPDs, in combination with the Apple LaserWriter 8 driver, provide access to the
product features and allow a networked computer to communicate with the printer. An
installation program for the PPDs and other software is provided on the CD-ROM. Use
the Apple LaserWriter 8 driver that came with your Macintosh computer.

HP LaserJet utility

The HP LaserJet utility allows you to control printing features that are not available in the
printer driver. The illustrated screens make selecting printer features when using the
Macintosh computer easy. Use the HP LaserJet utility to do the following:

customize product control panel messages

name the product, assign it to a zone on the network, download files and fonts, and
change most of the settings

set a password for the product

from the computer, lock out functions on the control panel to prevent unauthorized
access (see the printer software Help)

configure and set the product for Internet protocol (IP) printing

Note

The HP LaserJet utility is not supported for the Czech, Korean, Japanese, Russian,
Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, or Turkish languages.

Software for networks

For a summary of available HP network installation and configuration software solutions,
see the HP Jetdirect Print Server Administrator’s Guide. You can find this guide on the
CD-ROM included with the product.

HP Web JetAdmin

The HP LaserJet 4100 mfp series is fully supported by HP Web JetAdmin, a browser-
based management tool typically installed on a network to manage multiple printers.
This tool is intended for use by the system administrator. Small networked workgroups
generally do not require HP Web JetAdmin, but if you administer a large enterprise, you
can easily download this product from the Internet at
