NOTE: The Windows software installer installs the HP Smart Device Agent Base service. The file size
is less than 100 kb. Its only function is to check for printers connected via USB hourly. No data is
collected. If a USB printer is found, it then tries to locate a JetAdvantage Management Connector
(JAMc) instance on the network. If a JAMc is found, the HP Smart Device Agent Base is securely
upgraded to a full Smart Device Agent from JAMc, which will then allow printed pages to be accounted
for in a Managed Print Services (MPS) account. The driver-only web packs downloaded from
www.hp.com for the printer and installed through the Add Printer wizard do not install this service.

Configure the HP toner-cartridge-protection supply settings
A network administrator can configure the toner-cartridge-protection settings using the printer control
panel or the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS).
Introduction
Use HP Cartridge Policy and Cartridge Protection to control which cartridges are installed in the printer
and protect the cartridges that are installed from theft.
In HP Web Jetadmin, the settings are located under the Device Management pane in the following menu
chain: Config > Supplies > Cartridge Policy or Cartridge Protection.
Cartridge Policy: This feature protects the printer from counterfeit toner cartridges by allowing
only genuine HP cartridges to be used with the printer. Using genuine HP cartridges ensures the
best possible print quality. When someone installs a cartridge that is not a genuine HP cartridge,
the printer control panel displays a message that the cartridge is unauthorized and it provides
information explaining how to proceed.
Cartridge Protection: This feature permanently associates toner cartridges with a specific printer,
or fleet of printers, so they cannot be used in other printers. Protecting cartridges protects your
investment. When this feature is enabled, if someone attempts to transfer a protected cartridge
from the original printer into an unauthorized printer, that printer will not print with the protected
cartridge. The printer control panel displays a message that the cartridge is protected, and it
provides information explaining how to proceed.
CAUTION: After enabling cartridge protection for the printer, all subsequent toner cartridges
installed in the printer are automatically and
permanently
protected. To avoid protecting a new
cartridge, disable the feature
before
installing the new cartridge.
Turning the feature off does not turn off protection for cartridges that are currently installed.
Enable or disable the Cartridge Policy feature
The Cartridge Policy feature can be enabled or disabled using the control panel or the Embedded Web
Server (EWS).
NOTE: Enabling or disabling this feature might require entering an administrator password.
Check with your administrator to determine if an administrator password has been set. EWS

Toner cartridge information
The printer indicates when the toner-cartridge level is low and very low. The actual toner-cartridge life
remaining can vary. Consider having a replacement cartridge available to install when print quality is no
longer acceptable.
Continue printing with the current cartridge until redistributing the toner no longer yields acceptable
print quality. To redistribute the toner, remove the toner cartridge from the printer and gently rock
the cartridge back and forth end to end. For graphical representation, see the cartridge replacement
instructions. Reinsert the toner cartridge into the printer, and then close the cover.
To purchase cartridges or check cartridge compatibility for the printer, go to HP SureSupply at
www.hp.com/go/suresupply. Scroll to the bottom of the page and verify that the country/region is
correct.
NOTE: Cartridges are listed based on regional distribution and availability. A cartridge from any

Set up Scan to Network Folder
Set up the Scan to Folder feature to scan documents directly to network folder.
Introduction
This section explains how to enable and configure the Scan to Network Folder function. The printer
has a feature that enables it to scan a document and save it to a network folder. To use this scan
feature, the printer must be connected to a network; however, the feature is not available until it has
been configured. There are two methods for configuring Scan to Network Folder, the Save to Network
Folder Setup Wizard for basic setup and Save to Network Folder Setup for advanced setup.
Before you begin
Have the following items available before you set up the Scan to Network feature.
NOTE: To set up the Scan to Network Folder feature, the printer must have an active network
connection.
Administrators need the following items before beginning the configuration process.
Administrative access to the printer.
The fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) (e.g., \\servername.us.companyname.net\scans) of the
destination folder OR the IP address of the server (e.g., \\16.88.20.20\scans).
NOTE: The use of the term "server" in this context refers to the computer where the shared folder
resides.
Step one: Access the HP Embedded Web Server (EWS)
Open the EWS to start the setup process.
NOTE: The figure in this topic shows an EWS screen for a color printer. However, the procedure below
is valid for both color and mono printers.
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, touch the Information icon , and then touch
the Ethernet icon to display the IP address or host name.
2. Open a web browser, and in the address line, type the IP address or host name exactly as it displays
on the printer control panel. Press the Enter key on the computer keyboard. The EWS opens.
NOTE: If the web browser displays a message indicating that accessing the website might not be
safe, select the option to continue to the website. Accessing this website will not harm the
computer.

Step two: Set up Scan to Network Folder
Set up Scan to Network Folder using one of the following methods.
Method one: Use the Scan to Network Folder Wizard
Use this option for basic configuration of the Save to Network Folder feature using the Scan to Network
Folder wizard.
NOTE: Before you begin: To display the printer's IP address or host name, touch the Information
icon , and then touch the Network icon on the printer's control panel.
1. Using the EWS top navigation tabs, click Scan/Digital Send tab. The Email and Scan to Network
Folder Quick Setup Wizards dialog opens.
2. In the left navigation pane, click Email and Scan to Network Folder Quick Setup Wizards.
3. Click the Save to Network Folder Quick Set Wizard link.
4. On the Add or Remove a Save to Network Folder Quick Set dialog, click Add.
NOTE: Quick Sets are shortcut jobs that can be accessed on the printer Home screen or within
the Quick Sets application.
NOTE: The Save to Network Folder feature can be minimally configured without creating a quick
set. However, without the Quick Set, users must enter the destination folder information at the
control panel for each scan job. A quick set is required to include Save to Network Folder metadata.
5. On the Add Folder Quick Set dialog, complete the following information:
a. In the Quick Set Title field, type a title.
NOTE: Name the Quick Set something that users can understand quickly (e.g., "Scan and

FQDN example: \\servername.us.companyname.net\scans
IP address example: \\16.88.20.20\scans
NOTE: The FQDN can be more reliable than the IP address. If the server gets its IP address
via DHCP, the IP address can change. However, the connection with an IP address might be
faster because the printer does not need to use DNS to find the destination server.
b. From the Authentication Settings drop-down, select one of the following options:
Use credentials of user to connect after Sign In at the control panel
Always use these credentials
NOTE: If Always use these credentials is selected, a user name and password must be

The folder path can either be the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) or the IP address of
the server. Be sure that the folder path (e.g., \scans) follows the FQDN or IP address.
FQDN example: \\servername.us.companyname.net\scans
IP address example: \\16.88.20.20\scans
NOTE: The FQDN can be more reliable than the IP address. If the server gets its IP
address via DHCP, the IP address can change. However, the connection with an IP address
might be faster because the printer does not need to use DNS to find the destination
server.

(default is “Workgroup”), a user name, and password must be entered in the corresponding
fields. However, if the folder is within a particular user’s folders and not Public, the user
name and password of that user must be used.
NOTE: An IP address might be necessary instead of a computer name. Many home
routers do not handle computer names well, and there is no Domain Name Server (DNS).
In this case, it is best to set up a static IP address on the shared PC to alleviate the
problem of DHCP assigning a new IP address. On a typical home router, this is done by
setting a static IP address that is on the same subnet, but outside the DHCP address
range.

when the fax accessory dials a number, establishes a connection, and then
loses the connection. As a result of this error condition, the fax accessory
performs three automatic redial attempts regardless of the redial settings.

Introduction
The following solutions can help solve problems if the printer is not picking up paper from the tray or is
picking up multiple sheets of paper at one time. Either of these situations can result in paper jams.
The printer does not pick up paper
If the printer does not pick up paper from the tray, try these solutions:
1. Open the printer and remove any jammed sheets of paper. Verify that no torn remnants of paper
remain inside the printer.
2. Load the tray with the correct size of paper for the job.
3. Make sure the paper size and type are set correctly on the printer control panel.
4. Make sure the paper guides in the tray are adjusted correctly for the size of paper. Adjust the guides
to the appropriate indentation in the tray. The arrow on the tray guide should line up exactly with the
marking on the tray.
NOTE: Do not adjust the paper guides tightly against the paper stack. Adjust them to the
indentations or markings in the tray.
The following images show examples of the paper-size indentations in the trays for various printers.
Most HP printers have markings similar to these.

5. Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer and that paper is being
stored in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep
paper dry.
In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it
might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper
from the stack.
In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together.
If this happens, remove the paper from the tray, and flex the stack by holding it at each end and
bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to reverse the U shape. Next,
hold each side of the stack of paper and repeat this process. This process releases individual
sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper stack against a table before
returning it to the tray.

6. Check the printer control panel to see if it is displaying a prompt to feed the paper manually. Load
paper, and continue.
7. The rollers above the tray might be contaminated. Clean the rollers with a lint-free cloth dampened
with warm water. Use distilled water, if it is available.
CAUTION: Do not spray water directly onto the printer. Instead, spray water on the cloth or dab
the cloth in water and wring it out before cleaning the rollers.
The following image shows examples of the roller location for various printers.

background
The printer picks up multiple sheets of paper
If the printer picks up multiple sheets of paper from the tray, try these solutions:
1. Remove the stack of paper from the tray and flex it, rotate it 180 degrees, and flip it over.
Do not fan
the paper.
Return the stack of paper to the tray.
NOTE: Fanning the paper introduces static electricity. Instead of fanning the paper, flex the stack
by holding it at each end and bringing the ends up to form a U shape. Then, rotate the ends down to
reverse the U shape. Next, hold each side of the stack of paper and repeat this process. This
process releases individual sheets without introducing static electricity. Straighten the paper
stack against a table before returning it to the tray.

2. Use only paper that meets HP specifications for this printer.
3. Verify that the humidity in the room is within specifications for this printer, and that paper is being
stored in unopened packages. Most reams of paper are sold in moisture-proof wrapping to keep
paper dry.
In high-humidity environments, paper at the top of the stack in the tray can absorb moisture, and it
might have a wavy or uneven appearance. If this happens, remove the top 5 to 10 sheets of paper
from the stack.
In low-humidity environments, excess static electricity can cause sheets of paper to stick together. If
this happens, remove the paper from the tray and flex the stack as described above.

4. Use paper that is not wrinkled, folded, or damaged. If necessary, use paper from a different
package.
5. Make sure the tray is not overfilled by checking the stack-height markings inside the tray. If it is
overfilled, remove the entire stack of paper from the tray, straighten the stack, and then return some
of the paper to the tray.
The following examples show the stack-height markings in the trays for various printers. Most HP
printers have markings similar to these. Also make sure that all sheets of paper are below the tabs
near the stack-height marks. These tabs help hold the paper in the correct position as it enters the
printer.

6. Make sure the paper guides in the tray are adjusted correctly for the size of paper. Adjust the guides
to the appropriate indentation in the tray. The arrow on the tray guide should line up exactly with the
marking on the tray.
NOTE: Do not adjust the paper guides tightly against the paper stack. Adjust them to the

Check that all rollers are in place and that the roller-access cover inside the document feeder is
closed.
Make sure that the top document-feeder cover is closed.
The pages might not be placed correctly. Straighten the pages and adjust the paper guides to
center the stack.
The paper guides must be touching the sides of the paper stack to work correctly. Make sure that
the paper stack is straight and the guides are against the paper stack.
The document feeder input tray or output bin might contain more than the maximum number of
pages. Make sure the paper stack fits below the guides in the input tray, and remove pages from the
output bin.
Verify that there are no pieces of paper, staples, paper clips, or other debris in the paper path.
Clean the document-feeder rollers and the separation pad. Use compressed air or a clean, lint-free
cloth moistened with warm water. If misfeeds still occur, replace the rollers.
From the Home screen on the printer control panel, scroll to and touch the Supplies button. Check
the status of the document-feeder kit, and replace it if necessary.

184
Chapter 9 Solve problems
background
2. Select the Configuration/Status Pages menu.
3. Select Supplies Status Page, and then select Print to print the page.
Step two: Check supplies status
Check the supplies status report as follows.
1. Look at the supplies status report to check the percent of life remaining for the toner cartridges
and, if applicable, the status of other replaceable maintenance parts.
Print quality problems can occur when using a toner cartridge that is at its estimated end of life.
The supplies status page indicates when a supply level is very low. After an HP supply has reached
the very low threshold, HP’s premium protection warranty on that supply has ended.
The toner cartridge does not need to be replaced now unless the print quality is no longer
acceptable. Consider having a replacement available to install when print quality is no longer
acceptable.
If you determine that you need to replace a toner cartridge or other replaceable maintenance
parts, the supplies status page lists the genuine HP part numbers.
2. Check to see if you are using a genuine HP cartridge.
A genuine HP toner cartridge has the word “HP” on it, or has the HP logo on it. For more information
on identifying HP cartridges go to www.hp.com/go/learnaboutsupplies.
Print a cleaning page
During the printing process paper, toner, and dust particles can accumulate inside the printer and can
cause print-quality issues such as toner specks or spatter, smears, streaks, lines, or repeating marks.
Follow these steps to clean the printer paper path:
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select the Support Tools menu.
2. Select the following menus:
a. Maintenance
b. Calibration/Cleaning
c. Cleaning Page
3. Select Print to print the page.
A Cleaning... message displays on the printer control panel. The cleaning process takes a few
minutes to complete. Do not turn the printer off until the cleaning process has finished. When it is
finished, discard the printed page.
Visually inspect the toner cartridge or cartridges
Follow these steps to inspect each toner cartridge:
1. Remove the toner cartridge from the printer, and verify that the sealing tape has been removed.
2. Check the memory chip for damage.
Step two: Check supplies status

3. Examine the surface of the green imaging drum.
CAUTION: Do not touch the imaging drum. Fingerprints on the imaging drum can cause print-
quality problems.
4. If you see any scratches, fingerprints, or other damage on the imaging drum, replace the toner
cartridge.
5. Reinstall the toner cartridge and print a few pages to see if the problem has resolved.
Check paper and the printing environment
Use the following information to check the paper selection and the printing environment.
Step one: Use paper that meets HP specifications
Some print-quality problems arise from using paper that does not meet HP specifications.
Always use a paper type and weight that this printer supports.
Use paper that is of good quality and free of cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles,
voids, staples, and curled or bent edges.
Use paper that has not been previously printed on.
Use paper that does not contain metallic material, such as glitter.
Use paper that is designed for use in laser printers. Do not use paper that is designed only for use in
Inkjet printers.
Use paper that is not too rough. Using smoother paper generally results in better print quality.
Step two: Check the environment
The environment can directly affect print quality and is a common cause of print-quality or paper-
feeding issues. Try the following solutions:
Move the printer away from drafty locations, such as open windows or doors, or air-conditioning
vents.
Make sure the printer is not exposed to temperatures or humidity outside of printer specifications.
Do not place the printer in a confined space, such as a cabinet.
Place the printer on a sturdy, level surface.
Remove anything that is blocking the vents on the printer. The printer requires good air flow on all
sides, including the top.
Protect the printer from airborne debris, dust, steam, grease, or other elements that can leave
residue inside the printer.
Step three: Set the individual tray alignment
Follow these steps when text or images are not centered or aligned correctly on the printed page when
printing from specific trays.
1. From the Home screen on the printer control panel, select the Settings menu.
2. Select the following menus:

Download a different print driver from the HP support Web site: http://www.hp.com/support/ljM430MFP
or http://www.hp.com/support/ljM431MFP.
Check the EconoMode settings
HP does not recommend the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner
supply might outlast the mechanical parts in the toner cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is
no longer acceptable, consider replacing the toner cartridge.
NOTE: This feature is available with the PCL 6 print driver for Windows. If you are not using that driver,
you can enable the feature by using the HP Embedded Web Server.

Wireless connectivity checklist
Use the checklist to help resolve wireless connection issues.
For printers that do not support simultaneous wired and wireless connections, verify that the
network cable is not connected.
Verify that the printer and the wireless router are turned on and have power. Also make sure that the
wireless radio in the printer is turned on. (The wireless network indicator is solid when the printer is
connected to a wireless network, and blinking when it is searching for a wireless network.)
Verify that the service set identifier (SSID) is correct:
For a wireless connection to your network, confirm that your mobile device is connecting to the
correct router/access point.
For a Wi-Fi Direct connection, print a configuration page to determine the printer’s SSID.
If you are not sure that the SSID is correct, run the wireless setup again.
With secured networks, verify that the security information is correct. If the security information is
incorrect, run the wireless setup again.
If the wireless network is working correctly, try accessing other computers on the wireless network.
If the network has Internet access, try connecting to the Internet over a wireless connection.
Verify that the encryption method (AES or TKIP) is the same for the printer as it is for the wireless
access point (on networks using WPA security).
Verify that the printer is within the range of the wireless network. For most networks, the printer
must be within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point (wireless router).
Verify that obstacles do not block the wireless signal. Remove any large metal objects between
the access point and the printer. Make sure poles, walls, or support columns containing metal or
concrete do not separate the printer and wireless access point.
Verify that the printer is located away from electronic devices that might interfere with the wireless
signal. Many devices can interfere with the wireless signal including motors, cordless phones,
security system cameras, other wireless networks, and some Bluetooth devices.
For computers connecting to the wireless printer:
Verify that the print driver is installed on the computer.
Verify that you have selected the correct printer port.
Verify that the computer and printer connect to the same wireless network.
If your environment has multiple wireless signals and you need the printer to support dual band
networks on both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz, install the HP Jetdirect 2900nw print server accessory.
For macOS, verify that the wireless router supports Bonjour.
The printer does not print after the wireless configuration completes
Resolve issues between your computer and the printer.
1. Make sure that the printer is turned on and in the ready state.

Verify that a firewall is not interfering with wireless communication.
1. Update the firewall with the most recent update available from the manufacturer.
2. If programs request firewall access when you install the printer or try to print, make sure that you
allow the programs to run.
3. Temporarily turn off the firewall, and then install the wireless printer on the computer. Enable the
firewall when you have completed the wireless installation.
The wireless connection does not work after moving the wireless router or printer
Verify that the printer and network settings are correct.
1. Make sure that the router or printer connects to the same network that your computer connects to.
2. Print a configuration page.
3. Compare the service set identifier (SSID) on the configuration page to the SSID in the printer
configuration for the computer.
4. If the numbers are not the same, the devices are not connecting to the same network. Reconfigure
the wireless setup for the printer.
Cannot connect more computers to the wireless printer
Complete the following steps to solve connection issues.
1. Make sure that the other computers are within the wireless range and that no obstacles block the
signal. For most networks, the wireless range is within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point.
2. Make sure that the printer is turned on and in the ready state.
3. Make sure there are not more than 5 concurrent Wireless Print Direct users.
4. Turn off any third-party firewalls on your computer.

Reduce interference on a wireless network
The following tips can reduce interference in a wireless network:
Keep the wireless devices away from large metal objects, such as filing cabinets, and other
electromagnetic devices, such as microwaves and cordless telephones. These objects can disrupt
radio signals.
Keep the wireless devices away from large masonry structures and other building structures. These
objects can absorb radio waves and lower signal strength.
Position the wireless router in a central location in line of sight with the wireless printers on the
network.
Solve fax problems
Use the following sections to solve issues involving the printer fax functions.
Checklist for solving fax problems
Use the following checklist to help identify the cause of any fax-related problems you encounter:
The wireless network is not functioning
211
background
Are you using the fax cable supplied with the fax accessory? This fax accessory has been tested
with the supplied fax cable to meet RJ11 and functional specifications. Do not substitute another
fax cable; the analog-fax accessory requires an analog-fax cable. It also requires an analog phone
connection.
Is the fax/phone line connector seated in the outlet on the fax accessory? Make sure that the phone
jack is correctly seated in the outlet. Insert the connector into the outlet until it "clicks."
NOTE: Verify that the phone jack is connected to the fax port rather than to the network port. The
ports are similar.
Is the phone wall jack working properly? Verify that a dial tone exists by attaching a phone to the wall
jack. Can you hear a dial tone, and can you make or receive a phone call?
What type of phone line are you using?
Verify the type of phone line you are using, and review the recommendations for that type of line.
Dedicated line: A standard analog fax/phone line assigned to receive or send faxes.
NOTE: The phone line should be for printer fax use only and not shared with other types of
telephone devices. Examples include alarm systems that use the phone line for notifications to a
monitoring company.
PBX system: A business-environment phone system. Standard home phones and the fax accessory
use an analog phone signal. Some PBX systems are digital and might not be compatible with the
fax accessory. You might need an interfacing Analog Telephone Adapter (ATA) to connect the fax
machine to digital PBX systems.
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where a new call "rolls over" to the next available line when
the first incoming line is busy. Try attaching the printer to the first incoming phone line. The fax
accessory answers the phone after it rings the number of times set in the rings-to-answer setting.
Are you using a surge-protection device?
A surge-protection device can be used between the wall jack and the fax accessory to protect the fax
accessory against electrical power passed through the phone lines. These devices can cause some fax
communication problems by degrading the quality of the phone signal.
If you are having problems sending or receiving faxes and are using one of these devices, connect
the printer directly to the phone jack on the wall to determine whether the problem is with the surge-
protection device.
Are you using a phone company voice-messaging service or an answering machine?
If the rings-to-answer setting for the messaging service is lower than the rings-to-answer setting for the
fax accessory, the messaging service answers the call, and the fax accessory cannot receive faxes.
If the rings-to-answer setting for the fax accessory is lower than that of the messaging service, the fax
accessory answers all calls.
Does your phone line have a call-waiting feature?
If the fax telephone line has an activated call-waiting feature, a call-waiting notice can interrupt a fax call
in progress, which causes a communication error.
Ensure that a call-waiting feature is not active on the fax telephone line.

NOTE: For HP printer products, the use of a non-HP toner cartridge or a refilled toner cartridge does
not affect either the warranty to the customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However,
if product failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP toner cartridge or refilled toner
cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to service the product for the
particular failure or damage.
HP anticounterfeit Web site
Go to www.hp.com/go/anticounterfeit when you install an HP cartridge and the control-panel message
indicates the cartridge is non-HP. HP will help determine if the cartridge is genuine and take steps to
resolve the problem.
Your cartridge might not be a genuine HP cartridge if you notice the following:
The supplies status page indicates that a non-HP supply is installed.

You are experiencing a high number of problems with the cartridge.
The cartridge does not look like it usually does (for example, the packaging differs from
HP packaging).
Data stored on the toner cartridge
The HP toner cartridges used with this product contain a memory chip that assists in the operation of
the product.
In addition, this memory chip collects a limited set of information about the usage of the product, which
might include the following: the date when the toner cartridge was first installed, the date when the toner
cartridge was last used, the number of pages printed using the toner cartridge, the page coverage,
the printing modes used, any printing errors that might have occurred, and the product model. This
information helps HP design future products to meet our customers' printing needs.
The data collected from the toner cartridge memory chip does not contain information that can be used
to identify a customer or user of the toner cartridge or their product.
HP collects a sampling of the memory chips from toner cartridges returned to HP's free return and
recycling program (HP Planet Partners: www.hp.com/hprecycle). The memory chips from this sampling
are read and studied in order to improve future HP products. HP partners who assist in recycling this
toner cartridge might have access to this data, as well.
Any third party possessing the toner cartridge might have access to the anonymous information on the
memory chip.

If you are a consumer within the meaning of the Australia Consumer Law and you are purchasing
the Software or warranty and support services for the Software which are not of a kind ordinarily
acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption, then despite any other provision
of this EULA, HP limits its liability for failure to comply with a consumer guarantee as follows:
a. provision of warranty or support services for the Software: to any one or more of the following:
re-supply of the services or payment of the costs of having the services re-supplied;
b. provision of the Software: to any one or more of the following: replacement of the Software or

purchasing goods for personal, domestic or household use or consumption and not for the purpose
of a business ("New Zealand Consumers") are entitled to repair, replacement or refund for a failure
and compensation for other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. A New Zealand Consumer (as
defined above) may recover the costs of returning the product to the place of purchase if there
is a breach of the New Zealand consumer law; furthermore, if it will be of significant cost to the
New Zealand Consumer to return the goods to HP then HP will collect such goods at its own cost.
Where any supply of products or services is for business purposes, you agree that the Consumer
Guarantees Act 1993 does not apply and that given the nature and value of the transaction, this is
fair and reasonable.

Customer self-repair warranty service
HP products are designed with many Customer Self Repair (CSR) parts to minimize repair time and
allow for greater flexibility in performing defective parts replacement. If during the diagnosis period, HP
identifies that the repair can be accomplished by the use of a CSR part, HP will ship that part directly
to you for replacement. There are two categories of CSR parts: 1) Parts for which customer self repair is
mandatory. If you request HP to replace these parts, you will be charged for the travel and labor costs
of this service. 2) Parts for which customer self repair is optional. These parts are also designed for
Customer Self Repair. If, however, you require that HP replace them for you, this may be done at no
additional charge under the type of warranty service designated for your product.
Based on availability and where geography permits, CSR parts will be shipped for next business day
delivery. Same-day or four-hour delivery may be offered at an additional charge where geography
permits. If assistance is required, you can call the HP Technical Support Center and a technician will
help you over the phone. HP specifies in the materials shipped with a replacement CSR part whether a
defective part must be returned to HP. In cases where it is required to return the defective part to HP,
Customer self-repair warranty service
231
background
you must ship the defective part back to HP within a defined period of time, normally five (5) business
days. The defective part must be returned with the associated documentation in the provided shipping
material. Failure to return the defective part may result in HP billing you for the replacement. With a
customer self repair, HP will pay all shipping and part return costs and determine the courier/carrier to
be used.

Protecting the environment
HP is committed to providing quality products in an environmentally sound manner. This product has
been designed with several attributes to minimize impacts on our environment.
Ozone production
The airborne emissions of ozone for this product has been measured according to a standardized
protocol* and when these emissions data are applied to an anticipated high-use scenario in an office
workspace**, HP has determined there is no appreciable amount of ozone generated during printing and
the levels are well within current indoor air quality standards and guidelines.
* Test method for the determination of emissions from hardcopy devices with respect to awarding the
environmental label for office devices with printing function; DE-UZ 205 – BAM January, 2018
** Based on ozone concentration when printing 2 hours per day in 30.6 cubic meter room with a
ventilation rate of 0.68 air changes per hour with HP printing supplies
Power consumption
Power usage drops significantly while in Ready, Sleep, or Off mode, which saves natural resources
and saves money without affecting the high performance of this product. HP printing and imaging
equipment marked with the ENERGY STAR
®
logo is qualified to the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency's ENERGY STAR specifications for imaging equipment. The following mark will appear on
ENERGY STAR qualified imaging products:
Additional ENERGY STAR qualified imaging product model information is listed at:
www.hp.com/go/energystar
Toner consumption
EconoMode uses less toner, which might extend the life of the print cartridge. HP does not recommend
the full-time use of EconoMode. If EconoMode is used full-time, the toner supply might outlast the
mechanical parts in the print cartridge. If print quality begins to degrade and is no longer acceptable,
consider replacing the print cartridge.

Laser safety
The Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) of the U.S. Food and Drug Administration
has implemented regulations for laser products manufactured since August 1, 1976. Compliance is
mandatory for products marketed in the United States. The device is certified as a “Class 1” laser
product under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Radiation Performance
Standard according to the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act of 1968. Since radiation emitted

the back of this equipment is a label that contains, among other information, a product identifier in the
format US:AAAEQ##TXXXX. If requested, this number must be provided to the telephone company.
The REN is used to determine the quantity of devices, which may be connected to the telephone line.
Excessive RENs on the telephone line may result in the devices not ringing in response to an incoming
call. In most, but not all, areas, the sum of the RENs should not exceed five (5.0). To be certain of the
number of devices that may be connected to the line, as determined by the total RENs, contact the
telephone company to determine the maximum REN for the calling area.
This equipment uses the following USOC jacks: RJ11C.
FCC-compliant telephone cord, jack and modular plug should be used with this equipment. This
equipment is designed to be connected to the telephone network or premises wiring using a compatible
modular jack, which is Part 68 compliant. This equipment cannot be used on telephone company-
provided coin service. Connection to Party Line Service is subject to state tariffs.

advance that temporary discontinuance of service may be required. If advance notice is not practical,
the telephone company will notify the customer as soon as possible. Also, you will be advised of your
right to file a complaint with the FCC if you believe it is necessary.
The telephone company may make changes in its facilities, equipment, operations, or procedures
that could affect the operation of the equipment. If this happens, the telephone company will provide
advance notice in order for you to make the necessary modifications in order to maintain uninterrupted
service.
If trouble is experienced with this equipment, please see the numbers in this manual for repair and (or)
warranty information. If the trouble is causing harm to the telephone network, the telephone company
may request you remove the equipment from the network until the problem is resolved.

Industry Canada CS-03 requirements
Notice: The Industry Canada label identifies certified equipment. This certification means the equipment
meets certain telecommunications network protective, operational, and safety requirements as
prescribed in the appropriate Terminal Equipment Technical Requirement document(s). The Department
does not guarantee the equipment will operate to the user’s satisfaction. Before installing this
equipment, users should ensure that it is permissible for the equipment to be connected to the facilities
of the local telecommunications company. The equipment must also be installed using an acceptable
248
Appendix C Regulatory information
background
method of connection. The customer should be aware that compliance with the above conditions
may not prevent degradation of service in some situations. Repairs to certified equipment should be
coordinated by a representative designated by the supplier. Any repairs or alterations made by the
user to this equipment, or equipment malfunctions, may give the telecommunications company cause
to request the user to disconnect the equipment. Users should ensure for their own protection that
the electrical ground connections of the power utility, telephone lines, and internal metallic water pipe
system, if present, are connected together. This precaution can be particularly important in rural areas.
CAUTION: Users should not attempt to make such connections themselves, but should contact the
appropriate electric inspection authority, or electrician, as appropriate. The Ringer Equivalence
Number (REN) of this device is shown on the regulatory chassis label.
This product meets the applicable Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada technical
specifications.
The Ringer Equivalence Number (REN) indicates the maximum number of devices allowed to be
connected to a telephone interface. The termination of an interface may consist of any combination
of devices subject only to the requirement that the sum of the RENs of all the devices not exceed five (5).
The standard connecting arrangement code (telephone jack type) for equipment with direct
connections to the telephone network is CA11A.

l'équipement satisfait à certaines exigences en matière de protection, d'exploitation et de sécurité
du réseau de télécommunications, conformément au(x) document(s) sur les exigences techniques
relatives à l'équipement terminal. Le Ministère ne garantit pas que l'équipement donnera satisfaction
à l'utilisateur. Avant d'installer cet équipement, les utilisateurs doivent s'assurer qu'ils sont autorisés
à connecter l'équipement aux installations de l'entreprise locale de télécommunications. L'équipement
doit également être installé via une méthode de connexion appropriée. Le client doit être conscient que
le respect des conditions ci-dessus ne peut pas empêcher la dégradation du service dans certaines
situations. Les réparations de l'équipement certifié doivent être coordonnées par un représentant
désigné par le fournisseur. Toute réparation ou modification apportée par l'utilisateur à cet équipement
ou tout dysfonctionnement de l'équipement peut amener l'entreprise de télécommunications à
demander à l'utilisateur de débrancher l'équipement. Pour leur propre protection, les utilisateurs
doivent s'assurer que les connexions électriques à la terre du service public d'électricité, des lignes
téléphoniques et, le cas échéant, des conduites d'eau métalliques internes sont raccordées ensemble.
Cette précaution peut être particulièrement importante dans les zones rurales.
CAUTION: Les utilisateurs ne doivent pas tenter d'effectuer eux-mêmes de tels raccordements, mais
doivent prendre contact avec les services d'inspection électrique appropriés ou avec un électricien,
selon le cas. Le numéro d'équivalence de sonnerie (REN) de cet appareil est indiqué sur l'étiquette
réglementaire du châssis.
Ce produit est conforme aux spécifications techniques applicables d'Innovation, Sciences et
Développement économique Canada.
