End-user software components

Drivers

A printer driver is a software program that provides access to the printer features for other software
programs. Typically, you should install a printer driver for each printer. The printing-system software
CD-ROM that came with your printer includes the following Windows printer drivers:

HP Color LaserJet 1600 driver for Windows 98 SE, Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows Server
2003, and Windows XP (32-bit), all with similar graphical user interfaces

The most recent printer drivers and printing software for your HP Color LaserJet printer are available
on the Web:

www.hp.com/support

Additional drivers might be available from your Hewlett-Packard distributor or from online sources. See
the "TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE" section of this document or the printer user guide for more information
about obtaining drivers and other HP software.

Printer Status and Alerts

The printing system includes the Printer Status Alerts software component for end-users. These alerts
can be configured to appear when the printer cannot print (for example, when the printer is out of paper),
an HP supply needs to be ordered, or a warning condition exists (the device has experienced an error
but can continue). Alerts only appear when you attempt to print.

The Status Alerts can also be configured to show no alert messages.
