Using the control panel
The HP LaserJet 3100 product functions as a standalone copier –
you do not have to have software installed or have the computer on to
make copies.
Generally, making copies using the HP LaserJet 3100 product’s
control panel is the easiest and fastest method. You can adjust copy
settings and do most copy tasks from the control panel. However,
there are a few special tasks, discussed in the next section, that are
available only when using the Document Assistant.
Using the Document Assistant
If you have installed the software and the computer is on, the
Document Assistant appears when you load a document into the
document feeder tray. Clicking anywhere on the Document Assistant
activates it and displays the names of the functions.
When you click Copy, you gain access to the copy options, such as
adjusting brightness and contrast. You also have access to some
special copy features that aren’t available from the control panel,
such as copying two or four pages per printed page (2 up or 4 up),
and collating very large jobs that do not fit into the HP LaserJet 3100
product’s memory.
