# II. LATE-BREAKING INFORMATION

## KNOWN ISSUES AND WORKAROUNDS

### General

· Certain high speed USB 2.0 cards ship with unsigned host controller drivers. If you have purchased a USB 2.0 add-in card and have an unsigned driver, you might experience driver installation problems or communication problems between the device and HP software. It is recommended that you always use a Microsoft WHQL Certified host controller driver with your USB hardware.

· Plug and Play Print/Scan driver packages are available on the Web at the following URLs:

www.hp.com/support/ljM1005

· Functionality on systems that only meet minimum system requirements will be limited. Use of many images or videos requires a system that meets the recommended system requirements for acceptable performance and reliability.

· Troubleshooting Setup and Install

If your device is not recognized:

- Verify that your cable is USB 2.0 high-speed compliant.
- Ensure that your cable is connected correctly. Remove the USB cable, look at the end of the cable, and then match it to the pattern on the USB port. Make sure that it is not upside down. Insert one end of the USB cable completely into the USB port on the HP device and the other end into the back of the computer.
- Check that the peripheral is powered on. Peripherals will not be recognized if the power is off.
- Ensure that your USB cable is no more than 15 feet or 5 meters in length.
- Check that the USB port is enabled. Some PCs ship with disabled USB ports.

· On a Thai system, some components may show English text.

### Scanning

· Scanning at higher resolutions can take a long time to scan and the process and will create big files. For most purposes, the best compromise between quality and time or size is provided by the default resolution.

· The default file type for the HP LaserJet Scan software is JPEG when scanning to a file, and the default file type is PDF when scanning to e-mail. A JPEG file supports 256 Gray Shades (8 bit) output type. If you select an output type of black and white (1 bit), the file produced will still be in the JPEG format. To get a true black and white output type, change the setting for the default file type to either TIF or BMP in the Save Settings dialog under the Scan Picture Settings accessed through the Settings menu in the HP LaserJet Scan software for your device.

· Make sure the lid is correctly centered on the scanner to prevent stray light from entering into the scan, producing the best autocrop results. Some images may not autocrop well even when the lid is on properly. In these instances you will need to manually draw the crop area.

· OCR recommendations for input files:

- 300 dpi, 8-bit grayscale or 24-bit image data.
- 400 dpi, 8-bit grayscale or 24-bit image data for Asian languages (Traditional
  and Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Korean).
- Do not use 1-bit files for OCR.

· Putting a few sheets of paper on top of flatbed scanned originals can help eliminate bleed through of the second side image or foam mat and to help flatten the original.

· Scanned originals that are bent, creased or scored can cause shadows to appear on the image.

### Upgrading Windows

· HP recommends that you uninstall HP devices before upgrading to a newer supported version of Windows. For example, when upgrading from Windows 98 to Windows XP, uninstall your HP device using Add/Remove Programs and then upgrade to the new operating system. After the operating system upgrade is complete, re-install your HP device using the latest software from the following URL:

www.hp.com/support/ljM1005

### Other Applications

· Microsoft Wordpad does not display compressed JPEG files contained in an RTF file. To display these files, use a different application such as Microsoft Word.

# III. INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

When operating in a Windows environment, the CD-ROM setup or installation software detects the version and language of the operating system that you are running.

## INSTALLING SOFTWARE ON WINDOWS 2000, XP, and Server 2003

NOTE: Administrator privileges are required to install the printing system on a Windows 2000, or Windows XP operating system.

### Printing system installation from a CD-ROM

1. Do not plug the USB cable into the computer system.

NOTE:

If you have performed a Typical install and you do not have any other HP devices installed, you will also need to follow steps 1 and 2 below.
