If your print job is currently printing, you can cancel a print job by pressing cancel on the control
panel.
CAUTION Pressing cancel clears the job currently being processed by the product. If more than one process
is running, it clears the process that currently appears on the display panel.
Printer drivers
When you installed the product software, you selected one of the following printer drivers:
PCL 6 driver: Use the PCL 6 driver to take full advantage of the products features. Unless
complete backward compatibility with previous PCL drivers or older printers is necessary, the PCL
6 driver is recommended.
PCL 5e driver: Use the PCL 5e driver if you need print results to look consistent with those from
older HP LaserJet printers. Certain features (FastRes 1200, ProRes 1200, and 300 dpi) are not
available in this driver. (Do not use the PCL 5e driver provided with this printer with older printers.)
PS driver: Use the PostScript (PS) driver for compatibility with PS needs. Certain features
(manual duplexing, printing booklets, watermarks, and printing more than four pages per sheet)
are not available with this driver.
Note The product automatically switches between PS emulation and PCL printer languages depending
on the driver you have selected. PS emulation emulates Adobe® PostScript Level2. PostScript is a
registered trademark of Adobe Systems Incorporated. For information about accessing your printer
driver see Changing settings from your computer.
Understanding print quality settings
Print quality settings affect how light or dark the print is on the page and the style in which the
graphics are printed. You can also use the print quality settings to optimize the print quality for a
specific media type. See Optimizing print quality for media types for more information.
EN Understanding print quality settings 43
You can change the settings in the printer properties to accommodate the types of jobs you are
printing. The following settings are available depending on the printer driver you are using:
Best Quality (ProRes 1200): This prints at 1200 dpi (dots per inch) and provides the best
print quality.
Faster Printing (FastRes 1200): The resolution is rendered differently so that the job can
print faster. This is the default setting.
1200 dpi
600 dpi
300 dpi
Custom: This prints the same as the Faster Printing setting, but you can change the scale
patterns.
EconoMode (Save Toner): Text is printed using less toner. This setting is useful when you
are printing drafts.
Note Changing the resolution can change the formatting of your text.
To temporarily change print quality settings
To change the print quality settings only for the current software applications use, access the
properties through the Print Setup menu in the application you are using to print. See Changing
settings from your computer for more information.
To change print quality settings for all future jobs
You can access print quality settings by selecting Printers from the Windows Start menu, then
accessing the properties for the product. The settings are on the Finishing tab (Windows) under
Print Quality settings in the printer properties. To view the details of each setting, click Details. For
Macintosh OS 9.1 select the Imaging Options screen.
To enable EconoMode (save toner)
An excellent way to extend the life of your print cartridge is by using EconoMode. EconoMode
uses substantially less toner than normal printing. The printed image is lighter, but it is adequate
for printing drafts or proofs.
To enable EconoMode, access the printer properties. On the Finishing tab (Windows) or the
Imaging Options screen (Macintosh OS 9.1) under Print Quality, select EconoMode. For
Macintosh OS X use the Device Configuration Utility:
1Open the HP LaserJet Director.

Scanner resolution and color
If you are printing a scanned image or copying an image and the quality is not as you expected,
you might have selected a resolution or color setting in the copier/scanner software that does not
match your needs. Resolution and color affect scanned and copied images in the following ways:
Image clarity
Texture of gradations (smooth or rough)
Scan and copy time
File size
Resolution is measured in dots per inch (dpi) while color, grayscale, and black and white define the
number of colors possible. You can adjust the scanner hardware resolution up to 600 dpi. The
software has the ability to perform an interpolated resolution up to 9600 dpi. You can set color and
grayscale at 1 bit (black and white) or 8 bit (256 levels of gray) to 24 bit (true color).
The resolution and color guidelines table lists simple tips that you can follow to meet your scanning
and copying needs.
EN Scanner resolution and color 77
Note Setting the resolution and color to a high value can create large files that take up disk space and
slow the scanning or copying process. It is important that you first determine how you are going to
use the scanned image.
Note Color and grayscale images achieve the best resolution when scanned from the flatbed scanner
rather than the ADF.
Resolution and color guidelines
Intended use Recommended resolution Recommended color settings

To send a fax to multiple recipients
You can send a fax to several fax numbers at once. If you want to send a fax to a group of fax
numbers that you have assigned to a group-dial code, see Managing group-dial codes. If you want
to send a fax to a group of numbers (maximum of 20) without a group-dial code, see To send a fax
to an ad hoc group.
In the rare instance that your document does not fit into memory, you will need to send the
document to each fax number one at a time or use HP LaserJet Director.
Note HP LaserJet Director is not supported for Microsoft Windows 95.
To send a fax using a group-dial code
1Load the document into the ADF input tray.
2Adjust any fax settings, such as contrast or resolution.
3Press the one-touch key for the group.
OR
Press phone book, press the group-dial code assigned to the group, and press menu/enter.
4Press fax/send.

number in the group is busy or does not answer, the product will redial the number based on its
redial setting. After multiple redial attempts fail, the product updates the Fax Activity Log with the
error and proceeds to the next number in the group.
Note The Fax Activity Log feature is not supported in the software for Microsoft Windows 95, but you can
print the Fax Activity Log using the control panel. For instructions, see Printing the fax activity log.
To send a fax to an ad hoc group
Use the following instructions to send a fax to a group of recipients that does not have an assigned
group-dial code:
1Load the document into the ADF input tray or the flatbed scanner.
2Dial the first fax number using one of the following methods:

as an area code, an access code for numbers outside a PBX system (usually a 9), or a long distance
prefix. See Using dialing characters for more information.
3Press menu/enter.
4To continue entering numbers, repeat steps 2 and 3.
OR
If you are finished entering numbers, go to the next step.
5Press fax/send.
EN Canceling a fax job 83
6The product sends the fax to each fax number. If a number in the group is busy or does not
answer, the product will redial that number based on its redial setting. If multiple redial
attempts fail, the product updates the Fax Activity Log with the error and then proceeds to the
next number in the group.

Using manual dial
Normally, the product dials after you press fax/send. At times, however, you might want the
product to dial each number as you press it. For example, if you are charging your fax call to a
calling card, you may need to dial the fax number, wait for the acceptance tone of your telephone
company, and then dial the calling card number. When dialing internationally, you might need to
dial part of the number and then listen for dial tones before continuing to dial.
To use manual dial
1Load the document into the ADF input tray.
2Press fax/send.
3Begin dialing. The fax number dials as you press each digit. This allows you to wait for pauses,
dial tones, international access tones, or calling card acceptance tones before continuing to
dial.

want to wait until the automatic redials have stopped or you have stopped them yourself.
Otherwise, the recipient might get the fax twice: once from the manual redial attempt and once
from one of the automatic redial attempts.
Note To stop the current redial attempt for a fax, or to cancel all pending, automatic redial attempts for a
fax, see Canceling a fax job. To change redial settings, see Changing redial settings.
To redial manually
1Load the document into the ADF input tray.
2Press redial/pause.
3Press fax/send. The product redials the last number dialed and attempts to send the fax.
Sending a fax at a future time
You can schedule a fax to be sent automatically at a future time to one or more people. When you
complete this procedure, the product scans the document into memory and returns to the Ready
state so you can do other tasks.
Note This feature is not supported for Microsoft Windows 95.
Note If the product cannot transmit the fax at the scheduled time, it is indicated on the fax call report (if
that option is turned on), or logged in the fax activity log. This can happen in the case of no answer,
or if a busy signal results in the failure of redial attempts. (See Setting fax call report print times and
Printing the fax activity log for more information.)
If you have set a fax to send at a future time but need to add something to it, you can send the
additional information as another job. All faxes scheduled to go to the same fax number on the

Receiving faxes
You can receive faxes to the product or to your computer. In general, incoming faxes to the product
are automatically answered; however, if you change which devices are connected to the same
phone line that the product is connected to, you will need to change how the product answers
incoming faxes. See Changing how the product answers incoming faxes for instructions. Follow
the procedures in this section to manage faxes routed to the product.
To receive faxes when you hear fax tones
To reprint a fax
To block or unblock fax numbers
To receive faxes when you hear fax tones
If you have a phone line that receives both fax and phone calls, and you hear fax tones when you
answer the phone, you can start the receiving process in one of two ways:
If you are close to the product, press fax/send on the control panel.
When you answer any phone connected to the line (an extension phone) and hear fax tones,
the product should begin answering the call automatically. If not, press 1-2-3 in sequence on
the telephone keypad, listen for fax transmission sounds, and then hang up.
Note For the second method to work, the extension phone setting must be set to Yes. See Enabling an
extension phone to check or change the setting.
To reprint a fax
If you want to reprint a fax because the print cartridge was empty or if the fax printed on the wrong
type of media, you can try to reprint it. The actual number of faxes stored for possible reprinting is
determined by the available memory. The most recent fax prints first; the oldest fax prints last.
These faxes are continuously stored, and reprinting them does not clear them from memory. To
clear these faxes from memory, see Deleting faxes from memory.
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
86 7 Faxing EN
Note You do not need to use this procedure if the fax does not print because of a jam or because the
media runs out. During these situations, faxes are received to memory. As soon as you clear the
jam or refill the media, faxes automatically resume printing.
Use the following steps to reprint a fax:
1Press menu/enter.
2Press > once to display Fax Functions and press menu/enter.
3Use the < or > button to display Reprint Last and press menu/enter. The product begins
reprinting the most recently printed fax.
Note To stop the printing at any time, press cancel.
To block or unblock fax numbers
If there are people or businesses from whom you do not want to receive faxes, you can block up to
30 fax numbers using the control panel. When you block a fax number and someone from that
number sends you a fax, the display panel indicates the number is blocked, the fax does not print,
and the fax is not saved in memory. Faxes from blocked fax numbers appear in the fax activity log
with a discarded designation. You can unblock blocked fax numbers individually or all at one time.
Note The fax activity log feature is not supported for Microsoft Windows 95, but you can print the fax
activity log using the control panel. See Printing the fax activity log.
Note To print a list of numbers you have blocked, see Printing the block fax list.
Use the following steps to block or unblock fax numbers using the control panel:
1Press menu/enter.
2Use the < or > button to select Fax Settings and press menu/enter.
3Use the < or > button to select Fax Recv. Setup and press menu/enter.
4Use the < or > button to select Block Faxes and press menu/enter.
5Do one of the following:
To block a fax number, use the < or > button to select Add Entry and press menu/enter.
Enter the fax number exactly as it appears in the header (including spaces) and press
menu/enter. Enter a name for the blocked number and press menu/enter.

menu/enter. Press menu/enter again to confirm the deletions.
Receiving faxes to your computer
To receive faxes to your computer, you must enable the receive to PC setting in the software (see
the product software Help). If you have a phone line receiving both fax and voice calls (a shared
line) and an answering machine or computer voicemail on the line, you must turn off the answering
machine or voicemail to receive faxes to the computer. If you do not, either the answering system
answers all calls, or the PC fax program does. Because of this limitation, most users choose to
receive faxes to the product.
EN About speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes 87
The receive to PC setting can only be activated from the computer. If for any reason that computer
is no longer available or accessible, you can use the procedure below to turn the receive to PC

About speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes
You can store frequently dialed fax numbers or groups of fax numbers as one-touch keys,
speed-dial codes, or group-dial codes.
In the products phone book, there are a total of 275 codes available that can be used for
speed-dial codes and group-dial codes. For example, if you program 225 of the codes as
speed-dials, the remaining 50 can be used for group-dials.
See the following procedures for more information about how to use speed-dial codes, one-touch
keys, and group-dial codes:
To program speed-dial codes and one-touch keys
Speed-dial codes 1 through 9 are also associated with their corresponding one-touch keys on the

5Press menu/enter to save the information.
To program a one-touch key for alternate long distance
If you use an alternate long distance carrier, you can program a one-touch key to dial the services
access number before a fax number. When you need to use this one-touch key, press it, enter the
fax number, and press fax/send. Both the access number and the fax number are then dialed
together. If the access number is used almost every time you dial a fax, it might be easier to
program the access number as a dialing prefix (see Inserting a dial prefix for more information).
Note Speed-dial codes, one-touch keys, and group-dial codes are more easily programmed from the
software (not available in Windows 95). For instructions on programming speed-dial codes,
one-touch keys, and group-dial codes using the product software, see the product software Help.
Use this procedure if the access number has more than 10 characters or if you only occasionally

If you send information to the same group of people on a regular basis, you can program a
group-dial code to simplify the task. Any available speed-dial codes can be programmed with
group-dial codes. Group-dial codes using numbers 1 through 9 are also associated with the
corresponding one-touch key on the control panel. Any individual can be added to a group. All
group members must have programmed speed-dial codes or one-touch keys assigned to them
before being added to the group-dial code.

EN Using fax forwarding 93
Using fax forwarding
You can set your product to forward incoming faxes to another fax number. When the fax arrives at
your product, it is stored in memory. Then your product dials the fax number you have specified
and sends the fax. If it cannot forward a fax because of an error (for example, the number is busy)
and repeated attempts to redial are unsuccessful, your product will print the fax.
If the product runs out of memory while receiving a fax, it will terminate the incoming fax and only
forward the pages and partial pages already stored in memory.
When using this feature, the product must be the one receiving faxes (not the computer) and the
answer mode must be set to Automatic (see Changing how the product answers incoming faxes).

Changing rings-to-answer
When the answer mode is set to automatic, the products rings-to-answer setting determines the
number of times the phone rings before an incoming call is answered.
If the product is connected to a line receiving both fax and voice calls (a shared line) with an
answering machine, you may need to adjust the rings-to-answer. The number of rings-to-answer
for the product must be greater than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine. This allows
the answering machine to answer the incoming call and record a message if it is a voice call.
When the answering machine answers the call, the product listens to the call and automatically
answers it if it detects fax tones.
Refer to the fax guide that came with your product to determine the default and recommended
rings-to-answer settings for your country or region.
To set the number of rings-to-answer
To set or change the number of rings-to-answer, use the following steps:
1On the control panel, press menu/enter.

number (on the single ring pattern), make sure the products rings-to-answer is set to a lower number
than the rings-to-answer on the answering machine or voicemail. If it is not, the product will be unable
to receive fax calls.
EN Changing answer ring patterns 97
Changing answer ring patterns
If you subscribe to ring pattern service with your telephone company, you can enable the product
to detect ring patterns. If you do not have ring pattern service, and you change this setting, the
product will not be able to receive faxes.
What is ring pattern service?
Ring pattern service, such as distinctive ring, is available from some local telephone companies. It
allows you to have two or three phone numbers on one line. This costs less than paying for two or
three separate lines. Each of the phone numbers has a different ring pattern. Ring patterns allow
you to answer voice calls and allow the product to answer fax calls.
How do I get the service?
Call your local telephone company to check the availability and to subscribe. The service might not
be available in all areas. Also, your telephone company might use a different name for this service.
If ring pattern service is available and you choose to subscribe to it, remember the following:
Determine which ring pattern is used for phone calls and which is used for fax calls.
Make sure the telephone company assigns the correct ring pattern to the fax number. The
product ignores other ring patterns.
How will I know if it is working?
After product installation is complete, ask someone you know to send you a fax. Make sure you
provide the correct fax number.
To change answer ring patterns
Note Do not change the all rings default setting if you do not have ring pattern service from your telephone
company. If you do not have ring pattern service and you change this setting, the product might not
be able to receive faxes.

Installing the network software
After you have successfully connected the HP LaserJet 3300 series product to your network, you
should install or reinstall the software that came with the product. The software must be installed
to take full advantage of the product features and to enable networked printing from each PC.
Note If you are using a previously purchased HP Jetdirect print server, do not install the software that
came with it. Use the software that came with your HP LaserJet 3300 series product.
See the getting started guide that came with the product for complete instructions on installing the
software.
Using the embedded web server
Each HP Jetdirect 310x print server contains an embedded web server that you can access
through a compatible web browser on an intranet. The embedded web server provides access to
configuration and management pages for the print server and the attached printer. The networking
pages provide access to status and configuration information on the HP Jetdirect 310x print
server.
You can use the embedded web server to perform the following tasks:
Monitor the status of the printer and the print server
Make configuration changes to the print server to customize it for your network
Link to HPs web site
Scan images over the network without installing the HP LaserJet 3300 series product software
Prerequisites
Computers with the TCP/IP protocol installed can use the embedded web server to monitor and
configure the printers networked with an HP Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on
the product CD-ROM to set this up.
Before you can use the embedded web server, you must configure an IP address for the HP
Jetdirect print server. Use the installation program on the product CD-ROM to configure the IP
address.
Optionally, you can use BOOTP (Bootstrap Protocol) or DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) to automatically configure the IP address over the network each time the print server is
turned on.
Compatible web browsers
If you use Windows 9x, or NT 4.0, the embedded web server works with the following browsers:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0, 5.01, or 5.5
Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1
If you use Windows 2000, ME, or XP, the following browsers are supported:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or 5.5
Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1
If you use Mac OS 8.6 and later, or 9.0, the following browsers are supported:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
114 8 Networking EN
Netscape Navigator 4.6x, 4.7x, 6.0, or 6.1
For the latest list of compatible web browsers, check HPs Customer Care online at
http://www.hp.com/support/net_printing.
To start the embedded web server
After you establish an IP address on the print server, perform the following steps:
1Run a supported web browser.
2Enter the IP address of the print server as the URL. The print servers home page displays.
3Click the Help link on the web page for more information.
Note If you change the IP address and other parameters, the connection to the embedded web server
closes. To re-establish a connection, use the new IP address as the URL. Also, some computer
setups may no longer work.
Using HP Web JetAdmin
HP Web JetAdmin is a printer installation and management application for intranets. You can
obtain this software from HP Customer Care online at http://www.hp.com/support/net_printing.
Hewlett-Packard recommends that you use HP Web JetAdmin version 6.5 or later for operation
with the print servers embedded web server.
Using BOOTP
This section describes how to configure the print server using Bootstrap Protocol (BOOTP)
services on servers in some operating systems. BOOTP is used to download network
configuration data from a server to the HP Jetdirect print server over the network.
For BOOTP, the downloaded configuration data may also identify a file containing extended
configuration data. The HP Jetdirect print server downloads this file using TFTP. This TFTP
configuration file may be located on the BOOTP server or on a separate TFTP server.
Automatically downloading configuration data has the following benefits:
Ease of HP Jetdirect print server configuration. Complete network configuration can be
automatically downloaded each time the print server is powered on.
Ease of configuration management. Network configuration parameters for the entire network
can be in one location.
Enhanced configuration control of the print server. Configuration by other methods is limited to
select parameters.
When the print server is powered on, it broadcasts requests that contain its hardware address. A
server daemon searches servers for configuration data with a matching hardware address, and if
successful, sends the corresponding configuration data to the print server as a reply.
The factory-default state of the HP Jetdirect print server is to request its configuration data using
BOOTP requests first, and if no BOOTP reply is received, then to request its configuration data
using DHCP requests.
Note If the print server and the BOOTP, TFTP, or DHCP server are located on different subnets, IP
configuration may fail unless the routing device supports BOOTP Relay (allows the transfer of
requests between subnets).
EN Using BOOTP 115
Setting up the BOOTP server
Note For systems using NIS (Network Information Service):
If your server uses NIS, you may need to rebuild the NIS map with the BOOTP service before
performing the BOOTP configuration steps. Refer to your system documentation.
The procedure to set up the DHCP server depends on the operating system on that system. (It
may be a system other than those using the HP Jetdirect print services.)
Windows 2000 or NT servers:
On Windows NT or 2000 server systems, use the Microsoft DHCP utilities to set up print server
configuration through BOOTP.
When you use the Windows NT DHCP procedure (with the finite lease duration and adding a
reservation in step 8), the resulting service will respond to BOOTP requests as well as to
DHCP requests from the print server. See Windows NT Procedure.
When you use the Windows 2000 DHCP procedure, the resulting service will respond to
BOOTP requests when you select BOOTP only or Both in step 11d. See Windows 2000
Procedure.
These systems may require third-party software for TFTP support.
UNIX servers:
A BOOTP server running UNIX must be set up with the BOOTP daemon bootpd, and must be set
up with the /etc/bootptab configuration file. The configuration data in the /etc/bootptab file must be
properly entered. See Bootptab file entries.
TFTP is used to obtain additional configuration data from a configuration file on a TFTP server.
This file is specified in the bootptab file; see the T144 tag. See Bootptab file entries.
NetWare BOOTP servers:
For setup of NetWare BOOTP servers, refer to your NetWare documentation.
Bootptab file entries
The following is an example of an /etc/bootptab file entry for an HP Jetdirect print server:
picasso:\
:hn:\
:ht=ether:\
:vm=rfc1048:\
:ha=0001E6123456:\

:gw=192.168.40.1:\
:lg=192.168.40.3:\
:T144=“hpnp/picasso.cfg”:
A colon (:) indicates the end of a field, and a backslash (\) indicates that the entire entry is
continued on the next linemore fields. Spaces are not allowed between the characters on a line.
Names, such as host names, must begin with a letter and can contain only letters, numbers,
periods (for domain names only), and hyphens. The underline character (_) is not allowed. Refer
to your systems documentation for more information.
The configuration data contains tags that identify the various HP Jetdirect parameters and their
settings. The following table describes these tags:

Using DHCP
The procedure to set up the DHCP server depends on the operating system on that system. (It
may be a system other than those using the HP Jetdirect print services.)
UNIX servers:
For instructions on setting up DHCP on UNIX systems, see the bootpd man page.
On HP-UX systems, a sample DHCP configuration file dhcptab may be located in the /etc
directory. Since HP-UX presently does not provide Dynamic Domain Name Services (DDNS) for
its DHCP implementations, HP recommends that you set all print server lease durations to infinite.
This ensures that the print server IP addresses remain static until dynamic name services are
provided.
Windows NT 4.0 servers:
You will set up a pool of IP addresses that the server can assign or lease to a requester.
Note To avoid problems resulting from IP addresses that change, HP recommends that all print servers
be assigned IP addresses with infinite leases or reserved IP addresses.
Windows NT Procedure
Note In addition to the general steps provided here, see also the instructions supplied with your DHCP
software.
1On the Windows NT server, open the Program Manager window and double-click the Network
Administrator icon.
2Double-click the DHCP Manager icon to open this window.
3Select Server and select Server Add.
4Type the server IP address, then click OK to return to the DHCP Manager window.
5In the list of DHCP servers, click on the server you have just added, then select Scope and
select Create.
6Select Set up the IP Address Pool. In the IP Address Pool section, set up the IP address
range by entering the beginning IP address in the Start Address box and entering the ending
IP address in the End Address box. Also enter the subnet mask for the subnet to which the IP
address pool applies. The starting and ending IP addresses define the end points of the
address pool assigned to this scope.
Note If desired, you can exclude ranges of IP addresses within a scope.
7In the Lease Duration section, select Unlimited, then select OK.
HP recommends that all print servers be assigned infinite leases to avoid problems resulting
from IP addresses that change. Be aware, however, that selecting an unlimited lease duration
for the scope (as described above) causes all clients in that scope to have infinite leases.
If you want clients on your network to have finite leases, you can instead set the duration to a
finite time, but you should configure all print servers as reserved clients for the scope.
EN Using DHCP 119
8If you have set Lease Duration to Unlimited in the previous step, skip to the next step. If you
have set Lease Duration to a finite time, continue with this step:
Select Scope and select Add Reservations to set up your print servers as reserved clients.
For each print server, perform the following steps in the Add Reserved Clients window to set
up a reservation for that print server:
aType the selected IP address.
bObtain the hardware (MAC) address from the configuration page, and type this address in
the Unique Identifier box.
cInput a client name.
dSelect Add to add the reserved client. To delete a reservation, in the DHCP Manager
window, select Scope and select Active Leases. In the Active Leases window, click on
the reservation you want to delete and select Delete.
9Select Close to return to the DHCP Manager window.
10 If you do not plan to use WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service), skip to the next step. If
you plan to use WINS (Windows Internet Naming Service), continue with this step:
aFrom the DHCP Manager window, select DHCP Options and select one of the following:
Scope: if you want name services only for the selected scope.
Global: if you want name services for all scopes.
bAdd the server to the Active Options list. In the DHCP Options window, select
WINS/NBNS Servers (044) from the Unused Options list. Select Add; then select OK.
A warning may appear requesting that you set the node type. You will do this in step 10d
below.
cNow provide the IP address of the WINS server as follows:
i. Select Value, then Edit Array.
ii. From the IP Address Array Editor, select Remove to delete any undesired addresses
previously set. Then type in the IP address of the WINS server and select Add.
iii. Once the address appears in the list of IP addresses, select OK. This returns you to the
DHCP Options window. If the address you have just added appears in the list of IP
addresses (near the bottom of the window) continue to step 10d below. Otherwise, retry
step 10c.
dIn the DHCP Options window, select WINS/NBT Node Type (046) from the Unused
Options list. Select Add to add the node type to the Active Options list. In the Byte box,
input 0x4 to indicate a mixed node, and select OK.
11 Click Close to exit to the Program Manager.
Windows 2000 servers:
You will set up a pool of IP addresses that the server can assign or lease to a requester.
Note To avoid problems resulting from IP addresses that change, HP recommends that all print servers
be assigned IP addresses with infinite leases or reserved IP addresses.

12 Close the DHCP manager utility.
Configuring the print server for DHCP configuration
Once a DHCP server is set up (according to the previous section), the factory-default state of the
print server requires no further action for print server configuration.
Changing the BOOTP/DHCP configuration method
Other configuration tools that include IP configuration, such as the embedded web server or
Telnet, allow you to disable BOOTP and/or DHCP auto-configuration. In each of these tools, three
possible settings for the configuration method are provided; each of the settings has the effect of
disabling others, as follows:
BOOTP
The print server automatically releases any names and IP addresses associated with the
DHCP server and re-initializes the TCP/IP protocol for the print server (unless a BOOTP
configuration is currently in effect). At this point, TCP/IP is unconfigured, and the print server
begins to sendeven before power is cycledBOOTP requests to acquire new IP
configuration information. If no BOOTP reply is received, the IP address remains at the factory
default 192.0.0.192. DHCP is disabled.
After power to the print server is cycled, only BOOTP requests are sent and only BOOTP
replies are processed. Any configuration of IP parameters done manually is ignored.

After power to the print server is cycled, only DHCP requests are sent and only DHCP replies
are processed. Any configuration of IP parameters done manually is ignored.
Manual
BOOTP and DHCP are disabled.
You should proceed to manually set all of the IP configuration parameters, including IP
address, subnet mask, default gateway, and idle timeout. You can use the settings available in
the same tool you are using.
CAUTION If the print server is switched from using an address allocated by a DHCP server to using a manually
assigned address, that manually assigned address should be outside any DHCP range used for
other devices on the network. An alternative is to tell the DHCP server that the print server's address
is fixed so that it will never be allocated to another client.
Returning to factory defaults
You can return the print server to its factory-default state (also called cold reset) by using the
factory-default reset procedure. See Resetting the 310x print server to factory defaults (cold
reset).
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
122 8 Networking EN
Moving to another network
When you move an HP Jetdirect print server that is configured with an IP address to a new
network, make sure that the IP address does not conflict with the IP addresses on the new
network. You can change the print servers IP address to one that can be used on the new
network, or you can erase the current IP address and configure another IP address after you
install the print server on the new network. Cold reset the print server (see Resetting the 310x
print server to factory defaults (cold reset) for instructions).
If the current BOOTP server cannot be reached, you might need to find a different BOOTP server
and configure the printer to that server.
If you used BOOTP or DHCP to configure the print server, edit the appropriate system files with
updated settings. If you manually set the IP address, reconfigure the IP parameters.
Follow the instructions on the appropriate home page to configure or modify your printer. These
instructions show you how to configure your printer and set up the printer for printing.
Note You can substitute the server domain with the TCP/IP address.
Printing a print server configuration page
If you connect your HP LaserJet 3300 series product to a network, use the following instructions to
print out a configuration page with information about your print server.
To print a Jetdirect configuration page
Briefly press the test button on the rear panel of the print server. If you are not sure if the
configuration page is in the process of printing, check the power/status LED. If the page never
appears on the printer (or if it is unreadable), see Configuration page does not print.

EN Cleaning the print cartridge area 125
Cleaning the print cartridge area
You do not need to clean the print cartridge area often. However, cleaning this area can improve
the quality of your printed sheets. During the printing process, paper, toner, and dust particles can
accumulate inside the printer. Over time, this buildup can cause print quality problems, such as
toner specks or smearing. To correct and prevent these types of problems, you can clean the print
cartridge area and the printer media path.

Product media specifications
Guidelines for using media
Selecting media for the ADF
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
138 10 Media EN
Product media specifications
HP LaserJet printers produce excellent print quality. The printer accepts a variety of media, such
as cut-sheet paper (including recycled paper), envelopes, labels, transparencies, vellum, and
custom-sized paper. Properties such as weight, grain, and moisture content are important factors
affecting printer performance and output quality.
The printer can use a variety of paper and other print media in accordance with the guidelines in
this user guide. Media that does not meet these guidelines might cause the following problems:
Poor print quality
Increased media jams
Premature wear on the printer, requiring repair
For best results, use only HP brand paper and print media. Hewlett-Packard Company cannot
recommend the use of other brands. Because they are not HP products, HP cannot influence or
control their quality.
It is possible for media to meet all of the guidelines in this user guide and still not produce
satisfactory results. This might be the result of improper handling, unacceptable temperature and
humidity levels, or other variables over which Hewlett-Packard has no control.
Before you purchase a large quantity of media, make sure that it meets the requirements specified
in this user guide and in Guidelines for Paper and Other Print Media. (See Ordering HP parts and
accessories for more information about ordering the guidelines.) Always test media before you
purchase a large quantity.
CAUTION Using media that does not meet Hewlett-Packards specifications might cause problems for the
printer, requiring repair. This repair is not covered by the Hewlett-Packard warranty or service
agreements.
Supported media sizes (printer)
The following are the supported media sizes:
Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)
Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)
Guidelines for using media
Paper
For best results, use conventional paper. Make sure that the paper is of good quality and free of
cuts, nicks, tears, spots, loose particles, dust, wrinkles, voids, and curled or bent edges.
If you are unsure about what type of paper you are loading (such as bond or recycled), check the
label on the package of paper.
Some paper causes print quality problems, jamming, or damage to the printer.
Note Do not use letterhead that is printed with low-temperature inks, such as those used in some types
of thermography.
Note Do not use raised letterhead.
EN Guidelines for using media 139
Note The printer uses heat and pressure to fuse toner to the paper. Make sure that any colored paper or
preprinted forms use inks that are compatible with the printer temperature (200°C or 392°F for 0.1
second).
Common media problems table
Labels
When selecting labels, consider the quality of the following factors:
Adhesives: The adhesive material should be stable at 200°C (392°F), the printers
maximum temperature.
Arrangement: Only use labels with no exposed backing between them. Labels can peel off
sheets that have spaces between the labels, causing serious jams.
Curl: Prior to printing, labels must lie flat with no more than 13 mm (0.5 inch) of curl in any
direction.
Condition: Do not use labels with wrinkles, bubbles, or other indications of separation. Never
use a sheet of labels that has already been run through the printer.
Transparencies
Transparencies must be able to withstand 200°C (392°F), the printers maximum temperature.
Symptom Problem with paper Solution
Poor print quality or toner
adhesion, or problems with
feeding.
Too moist, too rough, too smooth, or
embossed.
Faulty paper lot.
Try another kind of paper between
100 and 250 Sheffield and 4 to 6%
moisture content.
Dropouts, jamming, or curl. Stored improperly. Store paper flat in its moisture-proof
wrapping.
Increased gray background
shading. Might be too heavy. Use lighter paper.
Excessive curl, or problems
with feeding. Too moist, wrong grain direction, or
short-grain construction. Use long-grain paper.
Print using the straight-through
output path.
Jamming, or damage to
printer. Cutouts or perforations. Do not use paper with cutouts or
perforations.
Problems with feeding. Ragged edges. Use good quality paper.

140 10 Media EN
Envelopes
Envelope construction
Envelope construction is critical. Envelope fold lines can vary considerably, not only between
manufacturers, but also within a box from the same manufacturer. Successful printing on
envelopes depends on the quality of the envelopes. When selecting envelopes, consider the
following factors:
Weight: The weight of the envelope paper should not exceed 105 g/m2 (28-pound), or
jamming might result.
Construction: Prior to printing, envelopes should lie flat with less than 6 mm (0.25 inch) curl
and should not contain air. Envelopes that trap air may cause problems.
Condition: Make sure that the envelopes are not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
Sizes: From 90 x 160 mm (3.5 x 6.3 inches) to 178 x 254 mm (7 x 10 inches).
Envelopes with double-side seams
An envelope with double-side-seam construction has vertical seams at both ends of the envelope
rather than diagonal seams. This style might be more likely to wrinkle. Make sure that the seam
extends all the way to the corner of the envelope as shown in the following illustration:
Envelopes with adhesive strips or flaps
Envelopes with a peel-off adhesive strip or with more than one flap that folds over to seal must use
adhesives compatible with the heat and pressure in the printer: 200°C (392°F). The extra flaps
and strips might cause wrinkling, creasing, or jams.
Envelope storage
Proper storage of envelopes contributes to good print quality. You should store envelopes flat. If air
is trapped in an envelope, creating an air bubble, the envelope might wrinkle during printing.
Card stock and heavy media
You can print many types of card stock from the paper input tray, including index cards and
postcards. Some card stock performs better than others because its construction is better suited
for feeding through a laser printer.
For optimum printer performance, do not use paper heavier than 157 g/m2 (42-pound). Paper that
is too heavy might cause misfeeds, stacking problems, paper jams, poor toner fusing, poor print
quality, or excessive mechanical wear.
Acceptable
Unacceptable
EN Selecting media for the ADF 141
Note You might be able to print on heavier paper if you do not fill the input tray to capacity and if you use
paper with a smoothness rating of 100 to 180 Sheffield.
Card stock construction
Smoothness: 135-157 g/m2 (36-to 42-pound) card stock should have a smoothness rating of
100 to 180 Sheffield. 60-135 g/m2 (16- to 36-pound) card stock should have a smoothness
rating of 100 to 250 Sheffield.
Construction: Card stock should lie flat with less than 5 mm (0.2 inch) of curl.
Condition: Make sure that the card stock is not wrinkled, nicked, or otherwise damaged.
Sizes: Only use card stock within the following size ranges:
Minimum: 76 x 127 mm (3 x 5 inches)
Maximum: 216 x 356 mm (8.5 x 14 inches)
Card stock guidelines
If the card stock curls or jams, print using the straight-through output path.
Set margins at least 2 mm (0.08 inch) away from the edges.
Selecting media for the ADF
ADF specifications
Input capacity: The ADF holds up to 50 sheets of flat 60 to 90 g/m (16- to 24-pound) plain
paper.
Media size: Only use plain paper within the following size ranges:
Minimum: 127 mm x 127 mm (5 x 5 inches)
Maximum: 215.9 mm x 381 mm (8.5 x 15 inches)
Note Use the flatbed scanner for copying and scanning if the media is fragile, thin, or thick. The flatbed
scanner provides the best copy and scan quality. The ADF is recommended for plain paper copying,
scanning, and faxing (faxing can be done only from the ADF).

Print cartridge life expectancy
The life of the print cartridge depends on the amount of toner that your print jobs require. When
printing text at 5% coverage, the standard print cartridge (C7115A) lasts an average of 2,500
pages. The extended life print cartridge (C7115X) lasts an average of 3,500 pages. This assumes
that you set the print density to 3 and turn EconoMode off (these are the default settings).
Recycling print cartridges
To reduce landfill waste, Hewlett-Packard has adopted a recycling program for empty print
cartridges. A postage-paid shipping label is inside the new HP LaserJet print cartridge box. Since
1990, the HP LaserJet Print Cartridge Recycling Program has collected more than 25 million used
HP LaserJet print cartridges that otherwise might have been discarded in the worlds landfills. To
join this recycling effort, follow the instructions provided in the new print cartridge box.
To install a new HP print cartridge, see To install a print cartridge or follow the instructions included
in the print cartridge box. See the recycling information on the print cartridge box and the HP
Printing Supplies Environmental Program Information included in the print cartridge box.
Saving toner
To save toner, select the EconoMode option in your printer properties settings. While in
EconoMode (Save Toner), the printer uses less toner on each page. Selecting this option will
extend the life of the print cartridge and reduce your cost per page, but it will reduce print quality.
See Print cartridge life expectancy for more information.

Preventing problems
The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy quality:
EN Clearing ADF media jams 169
Copy from the flatbed scanner. This will produce a higher quality copy than copying from the
ADF.
Use quality originals.
Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear
images and problems with the OCR application. See Installing and loading the media input
trays for instructions.
Open or close the straight-through output door on the product to accommodate the copy job. If
you are copying to standard weight media, use the output bin (door closed). If you are copying
to heavy media, use the straight-through output path (door open).
If your product frequently feeds more than one page at a time, replace the separation pad. For
more information, see Changing the printer separation pad.
Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.
Note Recurring feed problems indicate the copier/separation pad is worn. See Ordering HP parts and
accessories to order a new separation pad. See Changing the printer separation pad for more
information about replacing the separation pad.
Clearing ADF media jams
To clear a media jam from the ADF
Occasionally, media becomes jammed during a copy, scan, or fax job. Some of the causes include
the following:
The ADF input tray is loaded improperly or is too full. See Loading originals to copy or scan for
more information.
The media does not meet HP specifications. See Selecting media for the ADF for more
information.
You are notified of a media jam by an error in the software and a Document Feeder Jam
message in the control panel display.

Scanned image is of poor quality
Is the original a second generation photo or picture?
Reprinted photographs, such as those in newspapers or magazines, are printed using tiny dots of
ink that make an interpretation of the original photograph, which dramatically decreases the
quality. Often, the ink dots form unwanted patterns that, when scanned and reprinted or displayed,
can be detected. If the following suggestions do not solve your problem, you might need to use a
better quality version of the original.
To eliminate the patterns, try reducing the size of the image after scanning. See Enhancing
images with HP LaserJet Document Manager or HP Photo Center for more information.
Print the scanned image to see if the quality is better.
Make sure that your resolution and color settings are correct for the type of scan job that you
are performing. See Scanner resolution and color for more information.
For best results, use the flatbed scanner, not the ADF, for scanning.
Is the image quality better when printed?
The image displayed on the screen is not always an accurate representation of the quality of the
scan.
Try adjusting the settings on your computer monitor to display more colors (or levels of gray).
Typically, you make this adjustment by selecting Display, found on the Windows Control Panel.
Try adjusting the resolution and color settings in the scanner software. See Scanner resolution
and color for more information.
Is the image skewed (crooked)?
The original might have been loaded incorrectly. It is important to use the media guides when you
load the originals into the ADF. See Loading originals to copy or scan for more information.
Does the scanned image have blots, lines, vertical white stripes, or any
other defect?
See Improving scan quality for more information.
Is the scanner dirty?
If the scanner is dirty, the image produced will not have optimum clarity. See Cleaning the outside
of the product for instructions.
Do graphics appear different from the original?
The graphics settings might not be suitable for the type of scan job that you are performing. Try

Part of the image did not scan or text is missing
Was the original loaded correctly?
Make sure that you loaded the original correctly. See Loading originals to copy or scan for
instructions.
EN The text cannot be edited 177
Does the original have a colored background?
Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend too much. Try adjusting the
settings before you scan the original or enhancing the image after you scan the original. See
Scanner resolution and color for more information.
Is the original longer than 381 mm (15 inches)?
The maximum scannable length is 381 mm (15 inches) using the ADF. If the page exceeds the
maximum length, the scanner stops. Copies can be longer.
CAUTION Do not try to pull the original from the ADF; you might damage the scanner or your original. See
Clearing ADF media jams for instructions.
Is the original too small?
The minimum size supported in the ADF for the HP LaserJet 3300 is 127 by 127 mm (5 by 5
inches). The original might be jammed. See Clearing ADF media jams for instructions.
Are you using HP LaserJet Director?
Your default property settings for HP LaserJet Director might be set to automatically perform a
specific task other than the one you are attempting. For example, you can set HP LaserJet
Director to automatically perform a scan to e-mail. This means that your image does not show up
on the screen but is attached to an e-mail message as a file. See the product software Help for
instructions on changing the properties in HP LaserJet Director.
Is the paper size correct?
In Scan settings (in the HP LaserJet Scan Control Viewer), make sure that the input paper size is
large enough for the document that you are scanning.
Did you check for missing text in selected regions?
Scan your document in page-by-page mode and make sure that missing text is in a selected
region. If you are performing an OCR operation on a document, colored text does not scan well, if
at all.
The text cannot be edited
Is the product software set to edit text (OCR)?
Text remains as a single image until the Optical Character Recognition (OCR) application converts
the single image into text that you can edit. See Scanning with OCR for more information.
Was the original loaded correctly?
For OCR, the original must be loaded top forward and face up into the ADF. If using the flatbed
scanner, make sure to load originals correctly. Place the original document face down on the
flatbed scanner with the top left corner of the document located in the lower right corner of the
glass.
Are you using the correct word processing application?
Your OCR application might be linked to a word processing application that does not perform OCR
tasks. See the product software Help for more information about linking applications.
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
178 14 Troubleshooting scanning problems EN
Does the original have tightly spaced text?
The OCR application might not recognize text that is tightly spaced. For example, if the text
that the OCR application converts has missing or combined characters, rn might appear as m.
Text may be classified as a graphic and therefore not converted to text.
Is the original of poor quality?
The accuracy of the OCR application depends on the image quality, text size, and structure of the
original and the quality of the scan itself. Make sure that your original has good image quality.
Does the original have a colored background?
Colored backgrounds can cause images in the foreground to blend too much. Try adjusting the
settings before you scan the original or enhancing the image after you scan the original. See
Scanner resolution and color for more information. If you are performing an OCR operation on a
document, colored text does not scan well, if at all.
The scan takes too long
Is your resolution or color level set too high?
If you set the resolution and color level too high, the scan job takes longer and results in larger
files. To obtain good results when scanning or copying, it is important that you use the correct
resolution and color level settings for your job. See Scanner resolution and color for more
information.
Is your software set to scan in color?
Your system defaults to color, which takes longer to scan even if you are scanning a monochrome
original. If you acquire an image through TWAIN, you can change the settings to scan in
grayscale. See the product software Help for details.
Did you send a print or copy job before you tried to scan?
If you sent a print or copy job before you tried to scan, the scan will start if the scanner is not busy.
However, the printer and scanner share memory, which means that the scan might be slower.
Is your computer set for bi-directional communication?
See the documentation that came with your computer to change the BIOS settings. The
recommended bi-directional setting for the parallel port is ECP. USB is always bi-directional.
Error messages appear on the screen
Unable to activate TWAIN source
If you are acquiring an image from another device, such as a digital camera or another scanner,
make sure that the other device is TWAIN compliant. Non-TWAIN-compliant devices do not work
with the HP LaserJet 3300 product software.
Make sure that you have connected the USB or parallel cable to the correct port on the back of
your computer. If you have another port, try attaching the cable to the other port. Make sure that
you have an SPP-(bidirectional) or ECP-compliant parallel port on your computer. An SPP parallel
port is the minimum; an ECP parallel port is strongly recommended. See the documentation that
came with your computer for more information about your port.
EN The scanner did nothing 179
Some devices might not share the parallel port with the printer. If you have an external hard drive,
or network switchbox connected to the same USB or parallel port as the HP LaserJet 3300, the
other device might be interfering. To connect and use the HP LaserJet 3300, you must disconnect
the other device or you must use two ports on the computer. You might need to add another
parallel interface card. Hewlett-Packard strongly recommends an ECP parallel interface card. See
the documentation that came with your computer for more information about installing an
additional parallel interface card or resolving device conflicts.
Verify that the correct TWAIN source is selected. In the software, check the TWAIN source by
selecting Select Scanner from the File menu.
The scanner did nothing
Is the original loaded correctly?
Make sure that the original is loaded correctly:
ADF input tray: Top down in the ADF input tray, and the side to be scanned facing up. See To
load originals into the ADF input tray for more information.
Flatbed scanner: Place the original document face down on the flatbed scanner with the top
left corner of the document located in the lower right corner of the glass.

Identifying and correcting scan defects
Preventing problems
The following are a few simple steps you can take to improve copy and scan quality:
Use the flatbed scanner, rather than the ADF, to scan.
Use quality originals.
Load the media correctly. If the media is loaded incorrectly, it might skew, causing unclear
images and problems with the OCR application. See Installing and loading the media input
trays for instructions.
Open or close the straight-through output door on the product to accommodate the copy job. If
you are copying to standard weight media, use the output bin (door closed). If you are copying
to heavy media, use the straight-through output path (door open).
Adjust the software settings according to how you plan to use the scanned page. See
Enhancing images with HP LaserJet Document Manager or HP Photo Center and Scanner
resolution and color for more information.
If your product frequently feeds more than one page at a time, replace the separation pad. For
more information, see Changing the printer separation pad.
Recurring feed problems indicate that the copier/separation pad is worn. See Ordering
HP parts and accessories to order a new separation pad. See Changing the printer separation
pad for more information about replacing the separation pad.
Use or make a carrier sheet to protect your originals.

Fax phone problems
Use the following checklist to help you define what is causing any faxing problems you might be
encountering.
Are you using the phone cord supplied with the product?
This product has been tested with the supplied phone cord to meet RJ11 specifications.
Is the fax/phone line connector installed in the correct socket on the
product?
It should be plugged into the products line socket (the socket on top with an L next to it). You
must open the left side panel to access the socket. See Connecting the product to a phone line in
the fax guide that came with your product for details.
Is the fax/phone line connector seated into the socket on the product?
Gently pull on the Fax/Phone line connector to make sure it is well seated into the socket.
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 a phone call?
Attach a phone to the wall jack and verify that there is a dial tone and that you can make a phone
call.
What type of phone line are you using?
Dedicated line: A unique fax/phone number assigned to receive or send faxes. The phone cord
should be connected to the top port inside the left side panel of the product (the one that is not
labeled with a telephone icon).
Shared phone line: A system where both phone calls and faxes are received or sent using the
same phone number and phone line. A single standard phone line can only perform one function
at a time. You cannot send a fax while talking on the phone or while connecting to the Internet
using the same phone line.
PBX system: A business environment phone system. Standard home phones and the HP
LaserJet 3330 use an analog phone signal. PBX systems are digital and are incompatible with
standard phones and with devices such as the HP LaserJet 3330. You need to have access to a
standard analog phone line in order to send and receive faxes.
Roll-over lines: A phone system feature where, when one incoming line is busy, the next call
rolls over to the next available line. Try attaching the product to the first incoming phone line. The
product will answer the phone after it rings the number of times set in the products
rings-to-answer setting. (See Changing rings-to-answer.)
Distinctive ring service: The phone company can assign two phone numbers to one physical
line and assign each number a distinctive ring pattern. Make sure the product is set to respond to
the correct distinctive ring pattern assigned to the fax phone number by your phone service
provider. (See Changing answer ring patterns.)
EN The document stops feeding during faxing 183
Are you using a phone line splitter?
A phone line splitter is a device used to split out two or more phone line jacks to connect phones or
devices to the same phone line wall jack. Confusion can result from the existence of two different
kinds of splitters.
Parallel splitters (also called T splitters) split a single line into two jacks, allowing two devices to
be plugged into the same line.
Line1/Line2 splitters provide two phone line outlets from a single jack with two unique phone
numbers (two phone lines are connected to a single wall jack). A Line1/Line2 splitter must be used
if you have a fax line and a voice line coming into the same wall jack.
See Connecting the product to a phone line in the fax guide that came with your product for
instructions.
Note Parallel or T splitters should not be used with the product, as they can degrade the quality of the
phone signal. If you need to attach a second device to the phone line along with the product, plug
the second device into the products phone socket (the socket on the bottom) inside the products
left side panel. See Connecting the product to a phone line in the fax guide that came with your
product for instructions.
Are you using a surge protection device?
This is a device used between the wall jack and the product to protect the product against
electrical power passed through the phone lines. These 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 product directly to the phone jack
on the wall to determine whether the problem is with the surge protection device.
Are you using a phone companys voice messaging service?
This is a voice messaging service used to replace telephone answering devices. If the messaging
services rings-to-answer setting is lower than the products rings-to-answer setting, the
messaging service answers the call and the product is not able to receive faxes. If the products
rings-to-answer setting is lower than that of the messaging service, the product will answer all calls
and no call will ever be routed to the messaging service. The only voice messaging solution that
can be successfully used with the product is a stand-alone telephone answering machine.
Are you using an answering machine?
An answering machine should be connected directly to the port located inside the left side panel of
the product that is labeled with the telephone icon or should be shared on the same phone line
extension. Set the products rings-to-answer for one ring more than the number of rings for which
the answering machine is set. See Changing rings-to-answer for more information.
Note If an answering machine is connected on the same phone line but on a different jack, it may interfere
with the products ability to receive faxes.
The document stops feeding during faxing
Is the document too large or too small for the ADF?
The maximum length of a page you can load is 381 mm (15 inches). Faxing of a longer page stops
at 381 mm (15 inches). The minimum page size for the ADF is 127 by 127 mm (5 by 5 inches). If
the item is too small, it can jam inside the ADF.
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
184 15 Troubleshooting faxing problems EN
If there is no jam and it has been less than one minute, wait a moment before pressing cancel. If
there is a jam, see Clearing media jams, and resend the job.
Are there problems with the fax machine you are sending to?
Try sending to a different fax machine.
Are there problems with the phone line?
Do one of the following:
Turn up the volume on the product and press fax/send on the control panel. If you hear a dial
tone, the phone line is working.
Disconnect the product from the phone jack and connect a phone. Try to make a phone call to
make sure the phone line is working.
The product is receiving faxes but not sending them
Is your product on a PBX system?
If your product is on a PBX system, the PBX system might be generating a dial tone the product
cannot detect.
Disable the detect dial tone setting. See Changing the detect dial tone setting.
Is there a poor phone connection?
If you think there might be a poor connection on this phone line, try sending the fax later and see if
it sends successfully.
Outgoing fax calls keep dialing
The product will automatically redial a fax number if the redial on busy option is set to on. To stop
the redials while the product is dialing, press cancel. See the Changing redial settings if you need
to change the setting.
Faxes you send are not arriving
Is the receiving fax machine off or does it have an error
condition?
Call the recipient to make sure the fax machine is on and ready to receive faxes.
Is the fax still waiting in memory?
A fax might be in memory because it is waiting to redial a busy number, there are other jobs ahead
of it waiting to be sent, or the fax is set up for a delayed send. If a fax job is in memory for any of
these reasons, an entry for the job appears in the fax log. Print the fax activity log (see Printing the
fax activity log) and check the Status column for jobs with a Pending designation.
EN All of the numbers in a long fax number cannot be dialed 185
All of the numbers in a long fax number cannot be dialed
The maximum number of digits or characters that can be entered into a fax number is 50. Try
dialing the fax number in manual mode. See Using manual dial.
Unable to start receiving faxes from an extension phone

media input tray. The product will print all of the faxes it has saved in memory and will then resume
answering fax calls.
EN Faxes are transmitting or being received very slowly 187
Faxes are transmitting or being received very slowly
Are you sending or receiving a very complex fax?
A complex fax, such as one with many graphics, takes longer to be sent or received.
Does the receiving fax machine have a slow modem speed?
The product only sends the fax at the fastest modem speed the receiving fax machine can use.
Is the resolution at which the fax was sent or received very high?
A higher resolution typically results in better quality, but also requires a longer transmission time. If
you are receiving the fax, call and ask the sender to lower the resolution and resend the fax.
If you are sending, lower the resolution and resend the fax. See Changing the default resolution to
change the default setting.
Is there a poor phone line connection?
If there is a poor phone line connection, the product and the receiving fax machine slow down the
transmission to adjust for errors. Hang up and resend the fax. If this does not work, have the
phone company check the phone line.
Faxes are not printing or are printing incorrectly
Is there media in the media input tray?
If there is no media, load the media input tray. Any faxes received while the input tray is empty are
stored in memory and will print once the tray has been refilled.
Is the receive to PC option selected?
If the receive to PC option is selected, faxes are being received by the computer. See Receiving
faxes to your computer for information on this setting.
Faxes are printing on two pages instead of one
Is the autoreduction setting set correctly?
If you want faxes to be reduced to fit on one page, the autoreduction setting should be on. If the

ON and READY
The first step in troubleshooting your print server is to make sure that the attached printer is ready
to receive a print job from the print server. To do this, check the printers lights or control panel to
see whether it is ON and READY.
If your printers power is switched on and the printer is ready to print, continue with USB OK? (USB
light ON solid green?).
If the printer is not ready to print, or if you are not sure what to look for, see the next topic.
Is your printer ON and READY?
Check the following items to make sure that your printer is online and ready to print.
Is the printer plugged in and switched on? Make sure that the printer is plugged in and
switched on. The control panel display should not be blank. If you have checked these items
and the printer still shows no sign of being on, you may have a defective power cable, power
source, or printer.
Is the printer ready? The display should say Ready. If it does not, check to see that there are
no paper jams in the print or scan paper paths. See Clearing media jams for instructions.
Make sure all the doors are securely closed.
If the printer display still does not say Ready, try pressing the menu/enter button.
Try printing a configuration page. See Printing a configuration page. If you are not able to print
a configuration page, you will not be able to print from your print server.
After looking through the list above and making any necessary changes, is your printer ready
now?
USB OK? (USB light ON solid green?)
The HP Jetdirect 310x print server connects to its printer using a USB cable. If the USB
connection is working correctly, the USB light on the print server will be ON solid green (bright
green in color and glowing continuously, not blinking). If the USB connection is not working
correctly, the USB light may be off, blinking green, or blinking amber.
If your print servers USB light is ON solid green, continue with Power/Status OK? (Power/Status
light ON solid green?).
EN Troubleshooting overview 191
If your print servers USB light is not ON solid green, or if you are not sure what to look for,
continue with the following troubleshooting topics.
Note that the Jetdirect 310x print server does not support parallel-to-USB converters (for
connecting a parallel printer to a USB host)it works with USB printers only. Make sure that the
cable is connected firmly to both the printer and the print server.
Check that both the printer and the print server are powered on.
After checking the items above and making any necessary changes, is the USB light now ON solid
green?
What is the state of the USB light?
The behavior of the USB light indicates the status of the USB connection. If the USB light on your
print server is not ON solid green, find the appropriate topic below to continue troubleshooting.
Is the USB light ON solid green?
Check the USB light on your print server. It should be ON solid green (bright green in color and
glowing continuously, not blinking). If it is not ON solid green, follow the troubleshooting steps
below.
Make sure that you have a USB cable connected between your printer and the USB port on the
print server. It should be a standard USB A-to-B cable, as shown below:
USB light OFF
If the USB light is OFF, it means that the print servers USB connection is not operational. This is
OK before the print server finishes starting up (whether or not a USB cable is attached). If the light
remains OFF after startup, then the print server may be faulty.
Restart the print server by detaching the power cable and re-attaching it. Wait for the Power/Status
light to stop blinking (when the self-test finishes).
Is the USB light now ON solid green?
If yes, continue with Power/Status OK? (Power/Status light ON solid green?).
If no, your print server has a problem that requires assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support;
see the support flyer that came with your product for information on contacting HP.
USB light blinking green
If the USB light is blinking green, it indicates that the print server has detected a good connection
to a valid USB device, but the print server does not support the device. For example, this would
happen if you connected a USB digital camera to the print server.
This is not a fault, but rather an incompatibility between the print server and the connected device.
The HP Jetdirect 310x print server supports only USB printers (including USB multifunction
printers and All-in-One devices). It does not support non-printer USB devices, nor does it support
USB cable extenders, USB-to-parallel converters, or USB hubs.
Is the USB light now ON solid green?
If yes, continue with Power/Status OK? (Power/Status light ON solid green?).
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
192 16 Troubleshooting network problems EN
If no, but you are connected to a USB printer, your print server has a problem that requires
assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support; see the support flyer that came with your product
for information on contacting HP.
USB light blinking amber
If the USB light is blinking amber, there might be a hardware fault (for example, a short-circuit,
faulty cable, or a printer drawing too much power).
To verify, disconnect the USB cable at the print server. Switch on the printer if it is off. Power cycle
the print server (unplug it and plug it back in). Then reconnect the USB cable. If the USB light is
now green and steady, then no problem remains.
Otherwise, if the USB light is still blinking amber, there may be a faulty component. Try these steps
to determine which component might be causing the problem:
Detach the USB cable and power cycle the print server (unplug it and plug it back in). If the
USB LED is green and steady, the print server is OK. If it is blinking amber, the print server is
faulty.
Try reconnecting the USB cable to the print server only, and power cycle the print server
(unplug it and plug it back in). If the USB LED is green and steady, the cable is also OK. If it is
blinking amber, the cable may be faulty.
Power cycle the printer and reconnect the USB cable to the printer. If the USB LED is green
and steady, the printer is also OK. If it is blinking amber, the printer may be faulty.
Is the USB light now ON solid green?
If yes, continue with Power/Status OK? (Power/Status light ON solid green?).
If no, you may need to replace the component indicated at fault. If the fault is with the print server
or the USB cable (provided with the print server), get assistance from HP Jetdirect technical
support; see the support flyer that came with your product for information on contacting HP.
Power/Status OK? (Power/Status light ON solid green?)
The Power/Status light provides information on the state of the print servers power connection
and on its physical connection to the network. If connections are working correctly, the
Power/Status light should be ON solid green (bright green in color and glowing continuously, not
blinking). If the connections are not working correctly, the Power/Status light may be off, blinking
green, or blinking amber.
If your print servers Power/Status light is ON solid green, continue with 10/100 link OK? (10 light
or 100 light ON solid green?).
If your print servers Power/Status light is not ON solid green, or if you are not sure what to look for,
read the topics below to start evaluating the status of the print server.
Is the Power/Status light ON solid green?
Check the Power/Status light on your print server. It should be ON solid green (bright green in
color and glowing continuously, not blinking). If it is not ON solid green, please follow the
troubleshooting steps below.
For all of the steps below, note that when you first apply power to a normally operating print server,
the Power/Status light will slowly blink green for several seconds during self-test, and then go ON
solid green when the unit is ready for operation.
Note Check that the Jetdirect power module is plugged into a suitable power source (typically a wall outlet),
and that the power connector is plugged into the print server.
EN Troubleshooting overview 193
If necessary, try plugging the power module into a different power source.
Try a different power module/cable if one is available.

ON solid green?
What is the state of the Power/Status light?
The behavior of the Power/Status light indicates the status of the print servers power connection
and its physical connection to the network. If the Power/Status light on your print server is not ON
solid green, find its state in the list below and continue troubleshooting.
Power/Status light OFF
If the Power/Status light is OFF, your power module may be faulty. Fixing this fault requires
assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support; see the support flyer that came with the product
for information on contacting HP.
Power/Status light blinking green
The Power/Status light should be ON solid green to indicate that print server power is OK and that
the network cable is connected properly to the print server. If the Power/Status light is blinking
green, please try the steps below and make changes as necessary.
Make sure that the network cable is connected securely to the print server.
Check that the network cable is plugged securely into the hub/switch/router, and that the
connection is set to the correct network speed.
Check that the LINK light is ON for the port on the hub/switch/router to which the print server is
connected.
Your network cable may be faulty. Try a different cable.
If the light still does not come on, try a different port on the hub/switch/router.
Is the Power/Status light now ON solid green?
If yes, continue with 10/100 link OK? (10 light or 100 light ON solid green?). If no, your print server
has a problem that requires assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support; see the support flyer
that came with your product for information on contacting HP.
Power/Status light blinking amber
Your print server has developed a fault. Fixing this fault requires assistance from HP Jetdirect
technical support; see the support flyer that came with your product for information on contacting
HP.
10/100 link OK? (10 light or 100 light ON solid green?)
The link lights, the 10 light and the 100 light, indicate whether the print server can initiate a
network link at the right speed with your hub, switch, or router. One of the link lights, either the 10
light or the 100 light, should be ON solid green (bright green in color and glowing continuously, not
blinking) to indicate a valid link with the hub/switch/router. If there is not a valid link, both the 10
and 100 lights will be off.
If one of the print servers link lights is ON solid green, continue with Check the print servers
I/O status.
If neither of the print servers link lights is ON solid green, or if you are not sure what to
look for, follow the instructions below to start evaluating the link status of the print server.
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
194 16 Troubleshooting network problems EN
Is one of the link lights ON (solid green)?
Check the link lights on your print server; these lights are built into the network connector. One of
the link lights, either the 10 light or the 100 light, but not both, should be ON solid green, to indicate
a valid network connection.
Link lights OFF
Try the steps below and make any necessary corrections.
Make sure that the network cable is connected securely to the print server.
Check that the network cable is plugged securely into the hub/switch/router, and that the
connection is set to the correct network speed. (If your hub/switch/router is set to configure its
link speed automatically, try to configure it manually for 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps only. After
changing this setting, you may need to cycle power to the print serverunplug the print
servers power cable and then plug it in again.)
Check that the LINK light is ON for the port on the hub/switch/router to which the print server is
connected.
Your network cable may be faulty. Try a different cable.
If the light still does not come on, try a different port on the hub/switch/router.
Did these steps turn ON one of the link lights?
If yes, continue with Check the print servers I/O status.
If no, your print server has a problem that requires assistance from HP Jetdirect technical support;
see the support flyer that came with your product for a list of technical support telephone numbers.
Check the print servers I/O status
Check the I/O status of the print server by following these steps:
Print a Jetdirect configuration page. To print the page, press the test button on the print server.
If the configuration page does not print, see Configuration page does not print for help in
getting it to print.
On the configuration page, check that the print server reports its status as I/O Card Ready.
The Status entry is the first entry in the General Information section, in the upper left portion of
the page. See Interpreting the configuration page for more details on the configuration page.
If your configuration page shows a status of I/O Card Not Ready, continue with Error messages.
Can you print a Jetdirect configuration page?
To print a configuration page, press the test button on the print server.
A configuration page should print on the connected printer. This page displays information about
the print server hardware, the firmware version, the hardware (MAC) address, the connected
printer, network connectivity, network traffic, and network protocols. See Interpreting the
configuration page for details on the configuration page contents.
If the configuration page does not print, see Configuration page does not print.
Configuration page prints?
The Jetdirect configuration page is a page that the print server sends to the attached printer, both
as a test of the connection between the print server and the printer, and as a display of the status
of the print servers functions. See Interpreting the configuration page for details on the
configuration page contents.
EN Configuration page does not print 195
If you are able to print a Jetdirect configuration page on your printer, continue with the instructions
in Check the print servers I/O status.
Configuration page does not print
If the configuration page does not print, try these steps:
1Make sure your printer is connected to your print server by a USB A-to-B cable. (This is the
standard USB cable.)
Note Note that the HP Jetdirect 310x print server does not support parallel-to-USB converters (for
connecting a parallel printer to a USB host)it works with USB printers only. Make sure that the
cable is connected firmly to both the printer and the print server.
2Make sure that the printer and the print server are powered on.
3Make sure that the printer is Ready.
4You can check whether the print server is sending the page in a printer language (PDL) that
the printer supports. If the language is not supported by the printer, the page will not print or
will be unreadable if it does print.
By default, the print server is configured to determine the appropriate printer language
automatically. It is possible that the print server is not able to determine automatically which
language it should use for your printer.
You can cycle through the four printer languages using the following procedure:
aPress and hold the print servers Test button. After about three seconds, the power/status
LED changes to amber. Continue to hold the button until the power/status LED is flashing
green. Then release the button.
bBriefly press and release the test button once again to request the configuration page in
the next language.
cVerify that a readable page is printed. Repeat these steps up to four times if necessary to
receive a configuration page you can read.
5If you cannot read the page, refer to your printer documentation to find out which of the
following four printer languages are supported by your printer:
ASCII
PCL
PostScript
HP/GL-2
6It may be necessary to re-initialize the connection between the printer and the print server by
cycling power on the print server. (Unplug the power cable from the print server; then plug it
back in.) Do this with the printer switched ON.

Glossary
Term Definition
10-BaseT A type of Ethernet network that uses twisted pair cabling to attach nodes
to the network.
100-BaseTx A type of Ethernet network, also known as Fast Ethernet, that uses
twisted pair cabling to attach nodes to the network.
10/100-BaseTx This term indicates that a product is compatible with both 10-BaseT and
100-BaseTx. Many network products are compatible with both of these,
including some HP Jetdirect print server models.
1284-B 1284 is a parallel port standard developed by IEEE (the Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers). 1284-B refers to a specific
connector type on the end of the parallel cable which attaches to the
peripheral (for example, a printer). A 1284-B connector is bigger than a
1284-C connector, for example.
actual size The size of the page when it was scanned (not enlarged using zoom in or
reduced using zoom out).
ADF Automatic document feeder. The ADF is used to automatically feed
originals into the product for copying, scanning, or faxing.
annotation A word, note, mark, or highlighting added to an item.
appletalk An inexpensive local area network architecture built into all Apple
Macintosh computers.
bit depth The number of bits used to process scanned images. The greater the
number of bits, the more levels of gray that can be used to display the
image.
.bmp file A Microsoft Windows bitmap file that has the extension .bmp. A bitmap file
defines an image (such as the image of a scanned page) as a pattern of
dots (pixels).
manuals4you.commanuals4you.com
216 Glossary EN
BNC A type of network connector generally used with coaxial network cabling.
A BNC connector has two slots that lock onto two matching knobs on a
network interface card when the connector can be twisted.
BOOTP Short for Bootstrap Protocol, an Internet protocol that enables a diskless
workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP address of a BOOTP
server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the
machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or
floppy disk drive. The protocol is defined by RFC 951.
brightness A measure of the overall intensity of the image. The lower the brightness
value, the darker the image; the higher the value, the lighter the image will
be.
browser Short for Web browser, a software application used to locate and display
Web pages.
Chooser The Chooser is part of the Mac OS that allows configuration of the
computer system to print on any printer with the appropriate software.
Users that are part of an AppleTalk network system can use the Chooser
to activate and select among devices (such as printers, file servers, or
other computers) connected to the network.
client-server A network architecture in which each computer or process on the network
is either a client or a server. Servers are powerful computers or processes
dedicated to managing disk drives, network traffic, and printers. Clients
are PCs or workstations on which users run applications. Clients rely on
servers for resources such as files and devices.
collapse The process of reducing a sticky note to an icon.
collate The process of printing a multiple-copy job in sets. When collate is
selected, the HP LaserJet 3300 series product prints an entire set before
printing additional copies. Otherwise, the device prints the desired
number of copies of a page together before printing the following pages.
comma (,) A comma in a dial sequence indicates that the fax machine will pause at
that point in the dialing sequence.
contrast The difference between the dark and light areas of an image. The lower
the number value, the more closely the shades will resemble each other.
The higher the number, the more the shades will stand out from each
other.
container program A program into which an OLE object is inserted. That program contains
the object.
crop To remove part of an image. The portion of the image that is selected
remains, while the portion that is not selected is removed.
.dcx A multi-page .PCX format where each page is a .PCX file. Since this is a
multi-page format, it is widely used for receiving and sending faxes to and
from the computer. A single DCX document can store up to 1,023 pages.
dedicated line A single telephone line that is used exclusively for either voice calls or fax
calls.
EN 217
DHCP Short for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, a protocol for assigning
dynamic IP addresses to devices on a network. With dynamic addressing,
a device can have a different IP address every time it connects to the
network. In some systems, the devices IP address can even change while
it is still connected. DHCP also supports a mix of static and dynamic IP
addresses.
Dynamic addressing simplifies network administration because the
software keeps track of IP addresses rather than requiring an
administrator to manage the task. This means that a new computer can
be added to a network without the hassle of manually assigning it a
unique IP address.
DIMMs Dual In-line Memory Module, a small circuit board that holds memory. A
single in-line memory module (SIMM) has a 32-bit path to the memory,
whereas a DIMM has a 64-bit path.
distinctive ring A feature offered by some telephone companies in Australia, Canada,
New Zealand, the United States, and the United Kingdom that allows two
or three phone numbers to be set up on the same telephone line. Each
phone number has a different ring pattern, and the fax machine can be
configured to recognize the distinctive ring of the fax number.
DLC Short for Data Link Control. Every network interface card has a DLC
address or DLC identifier that uniquely identifies the node on the network.
dots per inch (dpi) A measurement of resolution used for scanning and printing. Generally,
more dots per inch mean a higher resolution, a greater amount of visible
detail in the image, and a larger file size.
EconoMode EconoMode is a toner-saving feature on the HP LaserJet product.
EconoMode reduces the amount of toner on a printed page, so that the
print cartridge lasts longer. The printed result is similar to printing a
document in draft mode.
ECP Extended capabilities port, a parallel-port standard for PCs that supports
bi-directional communication between the PC and attached devices (such
as a printer).
e-mail (electronic mail) An abbreviation for electronic mail. Software that can be used to
electronically transmit items over a communications network.
embedded An object created with one application and embedded into a document
created by another application. Embedding the object, rather than simply
inserting it by pasting it, ensures that the object retains its original format.
The embedded object can be modified with the original program. In
Windows environments, embedding objects is made possible by a
technology called OLE.
Ethernet A common type of local area network recognized as the industry
standard. Ethernet is also known as IEEE 802.3. Information is broken
into packets that are transmitted in order until they arrive at the
destination without colliding with any other packet. A network node is
either transmitting or receiving a packet at any instant.
expand A process to restore a collapsed sticky note from an icon to its original
size.
fax An abbreviation for facsimile. The electronic encoding of a printed page
and the transmission of the electronic page over a telephone line. The
product software can send items to electronic fax programs, which require
a modem and fax software.

connector.
shared line A single telephone line that is used for both voice and fax calls.
sticky note An annotation that is a multiline, resizable note. Similar to a paper sticky
note, it covers the item information beneath it. A sticky note can be moved
or collapsed to an icon. Words can be searched for in a sticky note by
using the Find command.
surge protector A device that protects a power supply and communications lines from
electrical surges. All computers come with some surge protection built
into the power supply, but it is a good idea to purchase a separate device.
summary information Information about the item, such as creator or keywords, can be added to
an item in the Summary Information dialog box to help find the item
quickly.
TCP/IP The de facto standard Ethernet protocol. TCP/IP stands for Transmission
Control Protocol over Internet Protocol. In order for the HP LaserJet 3300
series product to work on the network, the TCP/IP or IPX/SPX network
protocol must be running.
.tif Tagged Image File Format, a .tif (or TIFF) is a graphic file format that was
developed to capture scanned images. It is a format used on
IBM-compatible computers, Macintosh computers, and UNIX computers.
Many graphic programs accept the .tif file format.
EN 221
token ring A local area network in which transmission conflicts are avoided by the
granting of tokens that give permission to send. A network node keeps
the token while transmitting a message, if it has a message to transmit,
and then passes the token on to the next node. IEEE 802.5 is the most
common type of token ring network.
TrueType fonts TrueType fonts use what-you-see-is-what-you-get (WYSIWYG)
technology, which means that the printed output of TrueType fonts is
identical to what appears on the screen.
TWAIN An industry standard for scanners and software. Using a
TWAIN-compliant scanner with a TWAIN-compliant program, a scan can
be initiated from within the program.
twisted pair A type of network cable commonly used in Ethernet networks.
URL Uniform resource locator, the global address of documents and resources
on the Internet. The first part of the address indicates what protocol to
use, the second part specifies the IP address or the domain name where
the resource is located.
USB cable Universal Serial Bus (USB) is a standard developed by the USB
Implementers Forum, Inc. to connect computers and peripherals. Unlike
the parallel port, USB is designed to concurrently connect a single
computer USB port to multiple peripherals.
watermarks A watermark adds background text to a document being printed. For
example, Confidential can be printed in the background text of a
document stating that the document is Confidential. A selection can be
made from a set of predefined watermarks, and the font, size, angle, and
style can be changed, as well as a determination made whether the
printer will place the watermark on the first page only or all pages.
Windows sharing A method of peer-to-peer networking that uses Windows products with a
network installed, resources can be shared with co-workers, most
commonly the HP LaserJet 3300 series product, printers, and hard disks,
by simply using Windows tools such as Explorer and Print Manager.
When the HP LaserJet 3300 series product (or any printer) is shared
using Windows sharing, network users need to install the printer drivers
using the Add Printers utility in the Windows Printers folder.
workgroup A collection of individuals working together on a task. Workgroup
computing occurs when all the individuals have computers connected to a
network that allows them to share data files, send e-mail to one another,
and schedule meetings.
