HP JetSend

(CD-ROM - Windows 9x/NT 4.0 only)

HP JetSend is a new technology from Hewlett-Packard that allows
devices to communicate with each other simply and directly. HP
JetSend is built into your printer, allowing it to receive information
from any JetSend-enabled sending device anywhere on your
network, whether in the same office, or at a remote location. Your
printer also has infrared capabilities, allowing it to receive information
from any JetSend- enabled infrared device. Examples of JetSend
sending devices include PC's or laptops running JetSend software, or
scanners with JetSend built in. JetSend uses simple IP addressing
between networked devices, and "Point and shoot" between infrared
devices.

Visit the JetSend web site (www.jetsend.hp.com) for additional
information on JetSend and JetSend software for the PC. JetSend
allows you to exchange intra-company documents directly between
PCs and between PCs and any JetSend-enabled printer, without the
problems of incompatible software applications or versions. JetSend
software will allow your colleagues to create documents on their PCs
and send copies directly to this printer without any device-specific
drivers or configuration difficulties.

You can visit the JetSend web site to learn which other devices are
available to communicate easily and directly with your JetSend-
enabled printer.

How the JetSend Communications Technology Works

Networked Devices

To use the JetSend capability between networked devices (1) print a
configuration page to find your JetSend IP address and (2) give your
address to anyone who wishes to send information to your printer via
JetSend.

From a JetSend sending device, a person only needs to enter the IP
address of the printer and press "send."

Infrared Devices

To use the JetSend infrared capability, simply (1) line up the infrared
sensors between the sending and receiving devices, and (2) choose
the "send" option on the sending device.

The devices, because they have JetSend in them, will automatically
negotiate the best possible outcome.

HP JetSend Software is not currently available for the Macintosh.
