Software for Macintosh computers
The HP installer provides PostScript Printer Description (PPD) files, Printer Dialog
Extensions (PDEs), and the HP LaserJet Utility for use with Macintosh computers.
The embedded Web server can be used with Macintosh computers if the printer is
connected to a network. See
PPDs
Use PPDs in combination with the Apple PostScript drivers to gain access to the printer
features and to allow the computer to communicate with the printer. An installation program
for the PPDs, PDEs, and other software is provided on the CD-ROM. Use the appropriate
PS driver that comes with the operating system.
HP LaserJet Utility
Use the HP LaserJet Utility to control features that are not available in the driver. The
illustrated screens make selecting printer features easy. Use the HP LaserJet Utility to
perform the following tasks:
●
Name the printer, assign it to a zone on the network, and download files and fonts.
●
Configure and set the printer for Internet protocol (IP) printing.
NOTE
The HP LaserJet Utility is not currently supported for OS X, but the utility is supported for the
Classic environment.
