HP disk management utility

The HP Disk Management Utility should be installed only on the computer of the system
administrator. It allows administrators to control the hard disk and flash memory features that
are not found in the drivers. Bidirectional communication is required.

Note

HP Disk Management Utility is not available for Macintosh operating systems.

Use the HP Disk Management Utility for the following tasks:

Initialize disk and flash memory.

Download to, delete from, and manage fonts on disk and flash memory across networks.

Download PostScript Type 1, PostScript Type 42 (TrueType fonts converted to
PostScript format), TrueType, and PCL bitmap fonts. (To download Type 1 fonts, Adobe
Type Manager must be loaded and running.)

Software for Macintosh computers

The HP installer provides PostScript Printer Description (PPD) files, and Printer Dialog
Extensions (PDEs) for use with Macintosh computers.

The embedded Web server can be used with Macintosh computers if the MFP is connected
to a network. See

Using the embedded Web server

for more information.

PPDs

Use PPDs in combination with the Apple PostScript drivers to gain access to the MFP
features and to allow the computer to communicate with the MFP. 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.

Installing the printing system software

The MFP comes with printing system software and MFP drivers on a CD-ROM. The printing
system software on the CD-ROM must be installed in order to take full advantage of the
MFP features.

If you do not have access to a CD-ROM drive, you can download the printing system
software from the Internet at
