Driver Configuration
Automatic discovery and driver configuration through bidirectional communication occurs in the
following circumstances:
●

Upon the first installation of a driver, when using Enterprise Autoconfiguration (EAC)

●

When you use the Update Now feature for a driver that is already installed

Bidirectional communication
In environments that support bidirectional communication, the computer communicates with the
product during installation, determines the physical configuration, and then configures the driver
accordingly.

20

Technology background information

EN

Bidirectional communication enables the product to respond to data inquiries from the computer
and report back information, such as what type of print media is available or what accessories
are connected to the product. If the connection does not have this capability (that is, if it has no
bidirectional mode), it can only accept commands from the host and cannot report back
information to the host computer.
Bidirectional communication depends on your network operating system and on the type of
connection you have between your computer and your product.
When you install the HP Toolbox, bidirectional communication is always enabled. Installing
the HP Toolbox activates the HP Network Registry Agent (HPNRA) to ensure constant
communication between your computer and the product. When you install a driver without
installing the HP Toolbox at the same time, bidirectional communication is enabled only to
configure the driver, and is then disabled unless the driver's Update Now feature is used to
update the driver.

Enterprise AutoConfiguration
Enterprise AutoConfiguration (EAC) uses bidirectional communication to provide
autoconfiguration functionality for installation of the print driver over a network, whether you
use the installer on your printing-system software CD or the Add Printer wizard to install the
driver. Driver installation that includes EAC is configured with the same settings as the
physical configuration of the device. Configuration occurs without user interaction. If
bidirectional-communication software has been installed previously, EAC is not activated,
and the the pre-existing bidirectional-communication software is used to configure the print
driver.
If bidirectional communication software has not been installed, EAC installs bidirectionalcommunication software that allows it to communicate with the product and automatically
match the print driver with the actual product configuration. EAC is activated during
installation of the driver or whenever the Update Now feature is used.
If the configuration of the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer changes after installation, the
driver can be automatically updated with the new configuration in environments that support
bidirectional communication by using the Update Now feature. For example, if the
HP Color LaserJet 4650 is installed and an optional paper-handling accessory is added
later, you can use the Update Now feature to query the product and update the settings to
match the product's configuration.
Note

If you are using an HP PCL or PS Emulation unidriver, you must select Update Now through
the Automatic Configuration setting in Device Settings tab. If you are using an HP
traditional PCL6 driver, you must click the Update Now button on the Configure tab. The
Update Now feature is not available with the HP Traditional PS Emulation driver.
The following tables show the availability of EAC for various operating systems and network
environments that support bidirectional communication.

HP Driver Preconfiguration
HP Driver Preconfiguration is a software architecture and set of tools that permits HP
printing-system software to be customized and distributed in managed corporate printing
environments. Using HP Driver Preconfiguration, information technology (IT) administrators
in corporate and enterprise environments can preconfigure the printing and device defaults
for HP print drivers before installing the drivers in the network environment.
HP Driver Preconfiguration is most beneficial when configuring print drivers for multiple
workstations or print servers for print queues that share the same configuration. Two types
of features can be configured: device settings and printing-preferences settings. The driver is
configured to match the product hardware so that gaining access to all of the product
accessories through the driver is enabled correctly (for example, for duplexing units and
additional input trays). Most driver feature settings can also be configured.
HP Preconfiguration configures the driver to match the accessories installed on the printer,
or to match the settings that IT administrators make in the configuration (.CFG) file (for
example, optional trays, total amount of memory, job storage settings, mopier settings).
The preconfiguration process consists of three basic steps: driver acquisition, driver
preconfiguration, and driver installation and deployment. These steps can be accomplished
in different ways, depending on the tool that is being used to define the configuration.

EN

Chapter 2 Software description

23

The configuration process for driver preconfiguration is supported through three distinct
tools. All three are designed with the same basic UI controls for interacting with the
configuration (.CFG) file, but are packaged differently, either to support established product
installation workflows or to leave the deployment and installation of the driver entirely up to
the user.
●

HP Driver Configuration Editor. The HP Driver Configuration Editor is a small
standalone Windows software program that the administrator can use to open
the .CFG file that is associated with a particular driver and make modifications that are
applied when that driver is installed on the target computer. It is intended for use in
environments that have an established process for deploying drivers. This is the
preconfiguration tool of choice to support any Novell or HP Print Server Appliance
(PSA) Point and Print environments. It is used in the way that any ordinary Windows
software program is used.
The HP Driver Configuration Editor is available at the following URL: http://www.hp.com/go/
hpdpc_sw.

●

The HP Web Jetadmin Driver Configuration Plugin. HP Web Jetadmin provides a queue
creation program that can be used to create printers on any Windows NT 4.0, Windows
2000, Windows XP, or Windows 2003 server or workstation. The HP Web Jetadmin Driver
Configuration Plugin adds a number of screens to the existing queue creation workflow
from which the drivers that are being installed for the queues can be customized as part of
the process. The plug-in is limited to Internet Explorer browsers. Netscape Navigator is not
supported.
The HP Web Jetadmin Driver Configuration Plugin is available at the following URL:
http://www.hp.com/pond/wja/live/manual/html/wjacomp_winnt.html.

●

HP Customization Utility/Silent Installer. The Customization Utility features an installtime mode of HP Driver Preconfiguration. IT administrators can use the utility to
preconfigure the drivers for a printing-system software driver installation with the silent
installer.

Detailed information about gaining access to and installing these tools can be found in the HP
Driver Preconfiguration Support Guide, which is available on the printing-system software CD.

Lockable features
The following driver features can be locked to prevent end-users from changing settings:
●

Print on Both Sides (Duplex)

●

Media Type

●

Paper Source

●

Print in Grayscale

When a feature is locked, the selected default option is the only option that is available to users.
Generally, the feature is simply unavailable in the driver UI after it has been installed.

Euro character
The euro is the name for the currency of the European Union (EU). This unit was launched on
January 1, 1999. The euro has changed the way business is conducted in Europe and has
affected every company and industry in the world. It is vital that companies understand and
prepare for the changes the euro brings.

International Color Consortium profiles
HP provides cyan-magenta-yellow-black (CMYK) (HP4650C.ICM) and sustained redgreenblue (sRGB) (HP4650R.ICM) International Color Consortium (ICC) profiles with its HP Color
LaserJet 4650 printers. The CMYK profile can only be used with a postscript driver; the
sRGB profile can be used with any of the HP Color LaserJet 4650 drivers. The profiles are
available on the HP Web site at the following URL: http://www.hp.com/support/clj4650.
ICC profiles describe the way color will be interpreted in the default CMYK and RGB modes.
The sRGB profile matches the default RGB mode (sRGB), which is enabled with the Screen
Match or Automatic Color Smart II setting in either a PCL or postscript driver. The CMYK
profile is based on the default mode, which is a Specifications for Web Offset Publications
(SWOP) simulation with a CMYK Inkset setting of FASTin the postscript driver. These
profiles can be used for color conversions in a color-managed workflow.

PANTONE (R)* color profiles
Automatic PANTONE (R)* Calibration is the default setting for HP Color LaserJet products.
This feature automatically converts PANTONE (R)* colors to optimal color values for the
product by recognizing the PANTONE (R)* color name or number in the data stream sent to
the product. The feature is activated when printing colors that were chosen using the
PANTONE (R)* Color picker in supported graphics applications.
Applications known to generate postscript files with graphic objects preserving the
PANTONE (R)* name are listed below:
●

Adobe Illustrator

●

Adobe Photoshop (R)

●

Adobe PageMaker

●

Adobe InDesign

●

CorelDRAW (TM)

●

Macromedia Freehand

●

QuarkXPress

Some applications substitute CMYK values to the product if they cannot provide PANTONE
(R)* names. If your application does not pass the PANTONE (R)* names to the product, the
application will substitute default CMYK values to be printed for each color. In this case, the
accuracy of color matching will depend on the ink emulation selected - FAST, SWOP, Euro
standard, or DIC (Dainippon). If your application does not pass the PANTONE (R)* names to
the product, the custom CMYK values created by PANTONE (R)* for this product are
available in the manual PANTONE (R)* palettes.
PANTONE (R)* Application Palettes might be available on the Web at the following URL:
http://www.hp.com/support/clj4650.
Vector graphics such as company logos created in PANTONE (R)* Application Palettes can
be imported into Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or other MS Office applications. To do this, the
color application must create an encapsulated postscript (EPS) file of the image for insertion
as a file into the Office document (using the insert file function).

EN

Chapter 2 Software description

25

Note

Cutting and pasting from the clipboard does not work. These tasks do not preserve the
PANTONE (R)* name or the CMYK palette value.

HP Embedded Web Server
The HP Embedded Web Server (EWS) is a standard feature for the HP Color LaserJet 4650
printer.
The EWS provides a simple, easy-to-use solution for one-to-one product management. In offices
that have a limited number of products, remote management of printing devices can be
accomplished without installing any management software, such as HP Web Jetadmin. The only
requirement is that the management console have a supported Web browser.
In environments that have a larger number of products, where one-to-one management is
impractical, the HP Embedded Web Server and HP Web Jetadmin work together to provide
scalable remote product management. Use HP Web Jetadmin for consolidated management
tasks, when you want to perform operations on a selected set of products instead of on
individual products. For such environments, HP provides hooks between the HP Embedded Web
Server and HP Web Jetadmin so that you can configure HP Embedded Web Server features on
multiple products in one operation. For example, you can set the security password for the
HP Embedded Web Server simultaneously on a population of products.
For additional information and a copy of the HP Embedded Web Server User Guide, go to:
http://www.hp.com/support/clj4650.
To view information about the product by using the HP Embedded Web Server, open a
supported Web browser and type in the product transmission control protocol/internet protocol
(TCP/IP) address or host name. To find the TCP/IP address, look for IP Address on the
enhanced input/output (EIO) Jetdirect page, in the TCP/IP section. To find the host name of the
product, look for Host Name in the TCP/IP section.
You also can view information about an installed HP Jetdirect print server by clicking the
Networking tab in the HP Embedded Web Server window.
To print a copy of the EIO Jetdirect page from the control-panel display, follow these steps:
1

Press the select button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus.

2

Press the up and down buttons to scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the select button.

3

Press the up and down buttons to scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION.

4

Press the select button to print the configuration page.

5

Look in the configuration page section marked "Printer Information" for the firmware date
code. The firmware date code looks something like this: 20031002 07.000.0. (The EIO
Jetdirect page is the second page of the Configuration Page printout.)

The EWS frame
Each screen in the EWS has a frame that contains a top banner, three category tabs, a leftaligned navigation menu bar, and a main-content area. Selecting one of the category tabs
causes the corresponding left-aligned navigation bar to appear. The left-aligned navigation menu
includes links to content that is appropriate for that tab. The main-content area shows
information and opens options in response to navigation tab selections and menu bar selections.

Remote firmware update
The process for remotely upgrading product firmware involves three steps:
1

Determine the current level of firmware that is installed on the HP Color LaserJet 4650
printer.

2

Go to the HP Web site and download the latest firmware to your computer.

3

Download the new firmware to the product.

Determining the current level of firmware
To determine the current level of firmware, view the configuration page. To print a
configuration page, follow these instructions.
1

Press the select button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus.

2

Press the up and down buttons to scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the select
button.

3

Press the up and down buttons to scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION.

4

Press the select button to print the configuration page.

5

Look in the "Printer Information" section on the configuration page for the firmware date
code. The firmware date code looks something like this: 20031002 07.000.0.

Downloading the new firmware from the HP Web site
For support information about downloading new firmware from the Web, go to
http://www.hp.com/support/clj4650.
The product can receive an .RFU update to a product when the product is in a READY state.
The product waits for all of the I/O channels to become idle before performing the update.

EN

Chapter 2 Software description

Note

If the firmware update involves a change in the format of nonvolatile random-access memory
(NVRAM), any menu settings that are changed from the default settings will return to default
settings. The settings must be changed again if you want them to be different from the defaults.
Examples of settings that are affected in this way are tray types, default symbol sets, and Webaccess alerts.
The elapsed time for an update depends on the I/O transfer time, as well as the time that it takes
for the product to reinitialize. The I/O transfer time depends on a number of things, including the
speed of the host computer that is sending the update and the I/O method (parallel or network).
The reinitialization time depends on the specific hardware configuration of the product, such as
the number of EIO devices installed, the presence of external paper-handling devices, and the
amount of memory that is installed.
If the remote firmware update process is interrupted before the firmware is downloaded (while
RECEIVING UPGRADE appears on the control-panel display), the firmware file must be sent
again. If power is lost during the flash dual inline memory module (DIMM) update (while
PERFORMING UPGRADE appears on the control-panel display), the update is interrupted and
the message RESEND UPGRADE appears (in English only) on the control panel display. The
update must now be sent only by a computer that is attached to the parallel port of the product.
Finally, any print jobs that are ahead of the .RFU job in the queue are printed before the update
is processed.
Use one of the following methods to update your product.

Make sure that you have the tools and files that are necessary for the update. You will
need the HP LaserJet Utility and the print-ready file that you want to print.
The HP LaserJet Utility can be found on the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printing-system
software CD that came with the product. If you do not have the CD, you can obtain the
HP LaserJet Utility by downloading the latest printer installer from: http://www.hp.com.
After you have the HP LaserJet Utility and you know the location of the print-ready file
that you want to print, you are ready to begin the command-line printing process.

2

Open the HP LaserJet Utility.

3

Click Select Printer and locate the product that you would like to upgrade on the
network.

4

Select the product on the right side of the dialog box, and click OK. An information
dialog box for the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer appears.

On the left side of the Information dialog box, click Files. A dialog box appears where
you can select a file to be downloaded to the product.

7

On your hard disk, locate the print-ready file that you want to print, and then click the file
name to highlight it. Then click Select. The Files dialog box updates and shows the
print-ready file that you want to print under File to download.

8

Click Download.
The HP LaserJet Utility starts downloading the file to the product. A progress bar keeps
you updated about how much of the file has been downloaded. While the file is
downloading, the PROCESSING JOB message appears on the product control-panel,
and the the print-ready file prints.

Print-ready file printing by using the LPR command
Note

This command-line printing method is for use in Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP,
and Windows Server 2003.
Complete the following steps to print a print-ready file by using the LPR command.
1

Take note of the TCP/IP address on the EIO-Jetdirect page. The EIO-Jetdirect page is the
second page of the Configuration page printout. To print a Configuration page, see
Determining the current level of firmware .

2

From a command window, type lpr -P IPADDRESS -S IPADDRESS -o l FILENAME
lpr -S  -Pbinps , where IPADDRESS can be either the
TCP/IP address or the host name of the product, and where FILENAME is the file name of
the print-ready file.

Note

The parameter (-o l) consists of a lowercase "O", not a zero, and a lowercase "L", not the
numeral 1. This parameter sets the transport protocol to binary mode.
3

The file prints, but no further messages appear in the command-prompt window.

4

Type exit at the command prompt to close the command window.

Driver-feature comparison in various
operating systems
The following tables detail the software features that are available for each driver type and for
each supported operating system that the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports. The printingsystem drivers for Windows 98, Windows Me, and Windows NT 4.0 are the HP Traditional PCL
5c, HP Traditional PCL 6, and PS Emulation drivers. The printing-system drivers for Windows
2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 are the new HP unidrivers, with a user interface
look and feel that is consistent across the HP PCL 5c, HP PCL 6, and PS Emulation unidrivers.
For more information about the HP Traditional HP PCL 6, PCL 5c, and PS Emulation drivers,
see Chapter 3, HP traditional print drivers for Windows. For more information about the HP
PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and PS Emulation unidrivers, see Chapter 4, HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP

HP traditional print drivers
for Windows

Introduction
This chapter describes the features of the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer traditional print
drivers. The chapter contains the following sections:
●

HP Traditional PCL 6 Driver and HP Traditional PCL 5c Driver features. This section
describes the HP PCL 6 and HP PCL 5c drivers for Windows 98, Windows Me, and
Windows NT 4.0.

●

HP Traditional Postscript 3 Emulation Driver (PS Emulation Driver) features. This
section describes the PS Emulation Driver for Windows 98, Windows Me, and
Windows NT 4.0.

You can control print jobs from several places: the product control panel, the software
program, and the driver user interface. Generally, for features that are common to two or
more of these places (for instance, you can select the media input tray from any of them),
settings that are established in the software program take precedence over print-driver
settings. Print-driver settings override product control-panel settings.

HP Traditional PCL 6 and HP Traditional
PCL 5c Driver features
When you install the print drivers using the printing-system installer in Windows 98 or
Windows Me, the HP Traditional PCL 6 Driver is installed. The Traditional HP PCL 5c Driver
can be installed by performing a Custom Installation.
This section describes the options that are available on each tab of the HP Traditional PCL 6
and the HP Traditional PCL 5c Document Default print-driver interface and on some of the
tabs of the HP Traditional PCL 6 and HP Traditional PCL 5c Properties print-driver interface.
This section also describes differences between the HP Traditional PCL 6 Driver and the HP
Traditional PCL 5c Driver.

Access to print drivers
Depending on the operating system that you are installing the print drivers on, there are
different ways to gain access to the print drivers and different print-driver interfaces.
To gain access to the print-driver settings from within most software programs, click File, click
Print, and then click Properties. These driver settings apply only while the software program is
open.

Access to print drivers in Windows NT 4.0
In Windows NT 4.0, you can gain access to the Document Default driver tabs and the Properties
driver tabs. The settings that you make on these driver tabs control print job output.
Document Default driver tabs
In Windows NT 4.0, click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers. Right-click the product
name, and then click Document Defaults... to gain access to all Document Default print-driver
tabs, which are the same set of driver tabs that the software program controls. These driver
settings change the default settings that are used across all software programs.
The following Document Default print-driver tabs are available in Windows NT 4.0:

Note

●

Finishing tab

●

Effects tab

●

Paper tab

●

Job Storage tab

If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer is equipped with a hard disk drive, all Job Storage
options are available (Proof and Hold, Private Job, Quick Copy, and Stored Job). If your
HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer is not equipped with a hard disk drive, but has a minimum of 288
MB of memory, the Proof and Hold and Private Job options are available.
●

Basics tab

●

Color tab

HP driver tabs are indicated by the HP logo in the lower-left corner of the driver tab. Only HP
tabs are documented in this STR.
Properties driver tabs
In Windows NT 4.0, click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers. Right-click the product
name, and then click Properties to gain access to all Properties print-driver tabs. The following
Properties driver tabs are available in Windows NT 4.0:

chapter.

Help system
The HP Traditional PCL 6 Driver and the HP Traditional PCL 5c Driver include a full-featured
Help system to provide assistance with printing and configuration options.

What's this? Help
What's this? Help is supported in Windows 98, Windows Me, and Windows NT 4.0. You can
gain access to What's this? Help messages in any of the following ways:
●

Right-click a control and click What's this?, and a pop-up Help window appears.

●

Click the ? button at the upper-right corner of the frame, next to the X, to change the
cursor to an arrow with a question mark. Use this special cursor to select a control, and
the pop-up Help window for that feature appears.

●

Press the F1 key, and the Help window for the currently selected control appears.

Context-sensitive Help
Press the Help button on a driver tab or in a dialog box, and a context-sensitive Help
message appears.

EN

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

73

Incompatible Options messages
Incompatible Options settings (constraint) messages are unsolicited messages that appear
in response to specific actions that you take. These messages alert you to selections that
are illogical or impossible given the capabilities of the product or the current settings of other
controls. For example, if you click Print on Both Sides and then change the media type to
Transparency, a message appears asking you to resolve this conflict.

Figure 3-1.

A typical constraint message with an OK button
Whenever a constraint message appears with the OK or Cancel button, the interpretation of the
button is as follows:

74

●

Clicking OK accepts the change that was just made, and the driver then resets the
conflicting control to a setting that is compatible with the new value.

●

Clicking Cancel rejects the change that was just made, and the control returns to its
previous value.

Help system

EN

Bubble Help
Bubble Help features a graphical icon that resembles a cartoon speech bubble with a lowercase
"i" in it, representing the international symbol for information. The following illustration shows a
Bubble Help icon on a driver tab.

Figure 3-2.

A property page with a Bubble Help icon
The bubble typically appears next to a control that is unavailable, although it can also
accompany an available control if an important note concerning its use is available within the
Help. Moving the pointer over the bubble changes the arrow to a gloved hand, which
indicates that the area underneath the pointer is selectable. When the bubble is selected by
using either the mouse or the keyboard, a message box appears that contains a brief
explanation about why the control is disabled and what can be done to enable it. If the
control is not disabled, the message is a tip or a precaution that you should be aware of
when using that particular feature.

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

75

Finishing tab features
Use the Finishing tab to print booklets and control the media output. The following
illustration shows the Finishing tab.

Figure 3-3.

The default appearance of the Finishing tab
The Finishing tab contains the following controls:
●

Print Task Quick Sets group box

●

Document Options group box

●

Document preview image

●

Print Quality group box

Print Task Quick Sets
Use the Print Task Quick Sets setting to store the current combination of driver settings that
are found on all of the other print driver tabs. Print Task Quick Sets are either preset by
network-administrator settings or user-defined printing specifications (such as media size, pages
per sheet, and so on). The Print Task Quick Sets control does not appear on the driver
Properties tabs.
Note

76

Administrators can predefine Print Task Quick Sets for their users. These administrator Print
Task Quick Sets are defined on the server and are available to users, but usually cannot be
modified by users. Users can also define Print Task Quick Sets for their own use. User-defined
Print Task Quick Sets are described later in this section.

Default Print Settings
When you select Default Print Settings, nearly all of the settings are restored to the
combination that existed after the driver was installed (the original settings). However, if the
attribute combinations that are associated with watermark definitions, custom media sizes,
or the other quick sets have been changed or deleted, the original settings for those items
are not restored.
The following table shows the default settings for Print Task Quick Sets. See HP Driver
Preconfiguration for information about preconfigurable driver settings.

When Paper Size is set to Letter, Legal, or A4, selecting Print on Both Sides makes the Flip
Pages Up and Booklet Printing options available.
Automatically printing on both sides
The duplexing unit in the product prints on two sides of a sheet of media when the Print on Both
Sides option is specified in the print job. The HP Color LaserJet 4650dn, 4650dtn, and 4650hdn
models come with a duplexing unit installed.

80

Finishing tab features

EN

The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports smart duplexing. The smart duplexing feature
increases printing performance by not sending one-page print jobs or single-sided pages of a
duplexed print job through the duplexing unit even when the duplexing feature has been enabled
in the driver.
All media types support the smart duplexing feature, except for media types that cannot be
printed on both sides, such as labels, and the following media types:
●

Prepunched

●

Preprinted

●

Letterhead

When the media type is set to Unspecified, the smart duplexing feature is disabled.
Manually printing on both sides
Note

To make the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box available in the document options,
select the Allow Manual Duplexing check box on the Configure tab in the Properties printdriver tabs. See Paper Handling Options in this chapter.
Manually printing on the second side of a page is available when you are using the HP
Traditional PCL 6 Driver or the HP Traditional PCL 5c Driver. The HP Traditional Postscript 3
Emulation Driver does not support the manual duplexing feature. If a duplexing unit is
installed and manual duplexing is enabled in the driver, the printer automatically duplexes
media types that are supported by automatic duplexing (Letter, A4, Legal, 8.5 x 13, and
Executive (JIS) only), and forces manual printing on both sides for media types that are not
supported.

When the control panel shows the MANUALLY FEED message, insert the stack of
media (on which the even-number pages have been printed) as indicated in the
following figure.

Print on Both Sides Instructions
When you have completed the steps that appear in the dialog box, the second half of the print
job prints on the back side of the stack of media. The driver does not require the application to
specifically support odd- and even-page printing, because the driver coordinates this function.
Flip Pages Up
The Flip Pages Up check box, which is available only when Print on Both Sides is selected, is
used to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip Pages Up check box is not
available. The following table demonstrates the results of selecting this box, depending on the
media orientation that is selected on the Basics tab.

When Print on Both Sides is selected, the document preview image changes to show a spiral
binding along either the left edge or the top edge of the page. In addition, a folded-over corner
appears in the lower-right portion of the preview image, indicating that printing occurs on the
back side. An arrow on the folded-over corner points in the direction that the pages would be
flipped if they were bound together.
Short-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a
note pad. Long-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of
a book.
Booklet Printing
The Booklet Printing drop-down menu is visible when Print on Both Sides is selected and
a supported media size is selected in the Size is: drop-down menu on the Paper tab. The
Booklet Printing drop-down menu offers choices that are based on the current media size.
The default setting is Off. The other settings have the following format, where [paper size]
depends on the media size that is set on the Paper tab.
●

[paper size] (Left Binding)

●

[paper size] (Right Binding)

When you select [paper size] (Left Binding) or [paper size] (Right Binding), the
document preview image changes to show the location of the binding. If you change the
Pages per Sheet setting manually to 4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet, the booklet setting is
disabled. See the Pages per Sheet section of this document for more information.
Booklet printing is disabled when A6 or B6 (JIS) is selected as the media size, and an
incompatibility error message appears when you click OK to close the driver.
The Booklet Printing drop-down menu appears only when the following conditions exist:
●

Print on Both Sides (on the Finishing tab) is selected.

●

%of Normal Size (on the Effects tab) is 100.

●

Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) is 1.

●

Size is (on the Paper tab) is set to Letter, Legal, or A4.

If any of these conditions is not met (except the first), a Bubble Help appears next to
Booklet Printing to tell you why it is disabled.
Book and Booklet Printing
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 supports both book and booklet printing.
A book is a print job that consists of at least two pages and that can have a different media
type for the first page, other pages, or back cover. Use the First Page, Other Pages, or
Back Cover settings on the Paper tab (available when you select the Use Different Paper/
Covers check box) to select different printing options for the book.
A booklet is a print job that places two pages on each side of a sheet that can be folded into
a booklet that is half the size of the media type. Use the Booklet Printing drop-down menu
on the Finishing tab to control booklet settings.

Switching between tabs does not change the location or appearance of the document
preview image. When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse
cursor changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and
landscape page orientation by clicking on the image. The dimensions label that appears
below the preview image reflects the selected page size. The horizontal dimension is always
first, so the order of the numbers reverses when the orientation changes. Click the
dimensions label to toggle between English and metric units.

Font Settings group box
In the Font Settings group box, the only available option is Send TrueType as Bitmaps, which
provides an alternative for software programs that cannot easily use TrueType fonts for special
graphic purposes, such as shading, rotation, or slanting. The Send TrueType as Bitmaps check
box is not selected (clear) by default. If you select this option, the driver sends TrueType fonts to
the printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (outlines) of the fonts.
Output Settings
The Output Settings group box contains controls for pattern scaling, and to print all text as
black.
The default values for the Output Settings are as follows:
●

Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) is selected

●

Print all Text as Black is not selected

Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG)
Use the Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) feature to address the moiré effect that is created
when certain programs encounter certain patterns. Use this feature to turn off the pattern
scaling. What you lose is WYSIWYG with patterns, but the printed result might look better.
The feature works only with programs that use vector hatch patterns. This option is selected
by default.
Print all Text as Black
The Print All Text as Black feature is not selected by default. When the feature is selected,
the driver prints all text as black regardless of the original document text color. Color text is
printed as black, except for white text, which remains white. (White text is a reliable method
of printing reverse typeface against a dark background.) This setting does not affect graphic
images on the page, nor does it affect any text that is part of a graphic.

the printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (outlines) of the fonts.
Output Settings
The Output Settings group box contains controls for pattern scaling, and to print all text as black.
The default values for the Output Settings are as follows:
●

Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) is selected

●

Print all Text as Black is not selected

Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG)
Use the Scale Patterns (WYSIWYG) feature to address the moiré effect that is created when
certain programs encounter certain patterns. Use this feature to turn off the pattern scaling. What
you lose is WYSIWYG with patterns, but the printed result might look better. The feature works
only with programs that use vector hatch patterns. This option is selected by default.
Print all Text as Black
The Print All Text as Black feature is not selected by default. When the feature is selected, the
driver prints all text as black regardless of the original document text color. Color text is printed
as black, except for white text, which remains white. (White text is a reliable method of printing
reverse typeface against a dark background.) This setting does not affect graphic images on the
page, nor does it affect any text that is part of a graphic.
Graphic Settings
The Graphic Settings group box in the HP Traditional PCL 5c Driver has settings for the
graphics rendering mode. The following Rendering Mode: option buttons are available:

88

●

Automatic. This is the default setting.

●

Send Graphics as Vector. Select this setting to send graphics to the product as a
combination of HP Graphics Language, version 2 (HP-GL/2) and raster images. This
setting might produce higher-quality output.

●

Send Graphics as Raster. Select this setting to send all graphics to the product as images
composed of individual dots. This setting might improve printing speed in some cases.

●

Send Page as Raster. Select this setting to send all graphics and text (TrueType fonts) to
the product as images composed of individual dots. Use Send Page as Raster if you are
experiencing problems with overlapping text and graphics. With this setting, the Send
TrueType as Bitmaps option has no effect.

Fit To Page group box
The Fit To Page group box contains the following controls:
●

Print Document on setting

●

Scale to Fit check box

●

% of Normal Size setting

Print Document On setting
Use Print Document On to format the document for one media size, and then print the
document on a different media size, with or without scaling the page image to fit the new media
size.
The Print Document On control is disabled by either of the following conditions:
●

% of Normal Size is not 100.

●

Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) is not 1.

When Print Document On is selected, the drop-down menu shows the media sizes on which
you can print. The list contains all of the standard media sizes that are supported by the selected
media source, and any custom size that you have created. When Print Document On is
selected, Scale to Fit is automatically selected. Clear this check box if you do not want your
document reduced or enlarged to fit on the selected media size.
Scale to Fit option
The Scale to Fit option specifies whether each formatted document page image is scaled to fit
the target media size. By default, Scale to Fit is selected when Print Document On is selected.
If the setting is turned off, then the document page images will not be scaled, and are instead
centered at full size on the target media. If the document size is larger than the target media
size, then the document image is clipped. If the document size is smaller, then it is centered
within the target media. The following illustration shows preview images for a document
formatted for Legal-size media with the Print Document On option selected, and the target size
specified as Letter.

Figure 3-10.

Preview images - Legal on Letter; Scale to Fit off (left) and on (right)
When the size for which the document is formatted (that is, the logical size) differs from the
target size, the document preview image uses a dashed gray line to show the boundaries of the
logical page in relation to the target page size.

% of Normal Size option
The % of Normal Size option provides a slider bar for scaling the percentage setting. The
default setting in the entry box is 100 percent of the normal size. The normal size is defined as
the media size that is selected within the driver or what the driver receives from the software
program (if the software program does not negotiate the media size with the driver). The driver
scales the page by the appropriate factor and sends it to the printer.
The limits of the range are from 25 percent to 400 percent, and any values outside the range
are adjusted to those limits as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when
the Tab key is pressed or another control is selected).
Any change to the scale also changes the document preview image, which increases or
decreases from the upper-left corner of the preview.
The slider bar controls the scale directly. The value in the edit box changes as the scroll bar
indicator is dragged, and the document preview image is updated to the new image scale.
Each click on the scroll bar arrows increases or decreases the scale by one percent. Each
click on the slider bar affects the scale by 10 percent.
You cannot achieve an exact value by dragging the scroll bar indicator at the default
Windows resolution; use the scroll bar indicator to approximate the value that you want, and
then use the scroll bar arrows to refine the value. Or, type the value into the entry box.
The following settings disable % of Normal Size:
●

Print Document On (on the Effects tab) is selected.

●

Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) is not 1.

First Page Only check box
When First Page Only is selected, the watermark is printed only on the first page of the
document. The First Page Only check box is not available when the current watermark
selection is "(none)".
Watermarks are applied to logical pages. For example, when Pages per Sheet is set to "4" and
First Page Only is turned off, four watermarks appear on the physical page (one on each logical
page).

Current Watermarks
The Current Watermarks group box contains a list of available watermarks, both predefined
watermarks that are available in the driver and any new watermarks that you have created. To
create a new watermark, click New. The new watermark appears in the Current Watermarks
list and in the Watermark Message edit box as Untitled until you name it. To name the new
watermark, type the selected watermark text in the Watermark Message edit box. To delete a
watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list and click Delete.
Note

You can have no more that 30 watermarks in the Current Watermarks list at one time.
When you reach the limit of 30 watermarks, the New button is disabled, and a Bubble Help
message appears that explains why the button is disabled and how to make it available.
To edit an existing watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list. If you
change the Watermark Message for that watermark, you are, in effect, creating a new
watermark.
Watermark Message
The Watermark Message is also the name that identifies the watermark in the Current
Watermarks list, except when more than one watermark has the same message. For
example, you might want several different watermarks with the message DRAFT, each in a
different font or size. When this occurs, the string is appended with a space, a pound sign,
and a number (for example, Draft #2). When a number is added, the number two is used
first, but if the resulting name is also in the list, then the number increases until the name is
unique.
Message Angle
Use the controls in the Message Angle group box to print the watermark in a diagonal,
horizontal, or angle (custom) orientation to the text on the page. The default is Diagonal. All
three settings automatically center the watermark string within the page; the selection of a
particular setting affects only the angle of the string placement. Diagonal places the text
along a line that spans the lower-left to upper-right corners of the page.
Document preview image
The document preview image is a line-drawn image of a page that represents graphics and
text. The document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of the Watermark
Details dialog box. The document preview image changes to reflect the modifications that
you make in the Watermark Details dialog box.

Paper Options

Figure 3-13.

Paper Options group box (default)
The appearance of the Paper Options group box changes when the Use Different Paper/

are described in the following order:
●

Size is

●

Source Is

●

Type is

●

Custom

●

Use Different Paper/Covers

Size is
You can specify size for all of the settings in the Paper Options group box. When you set the
media size in the driver, the entire print-job output uses that media size. That is, if the print job
uses Letter-size media, any option that you select from the available Use Different Paper/
Covers options must also use Letter-size media.
Because driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software programs, it is
generally best to use the driver to set media size only for software programs that lack a mediasize setting, such as NotePad, or when you are producing a book or a booklet that does not
require different media sizes.
Note

Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different media sizes
within a single document.
For information about media sizes, see the Media attributes section of this guide.
Use Different Paper/Covers
When the Use Different Paper/Covers check box is selected and different options are
configured, the Size is:, Source is:, and Type is: menus change, offering a variety of options. For
more information, see Use Different Paper/Covers.

The default setting is Automatically Select. When this setting is selected, the printer uses
the source tray that supports the media size that you have selected. If you select a source
tray other than Automatically select, make sure that the correct media size is loaded in the
source tray. For more information about media sources, see the Media attributes section of
this guide.
Type is
The Type is: drop-down menu shows all the media types that the HP Color LaserJet 4650

Custom
Note

The Custom button is not available when Use Different Paper/Covers is selected and any
setting other than First Page is also selected.

Figure 3-14.

Custom Paper Size dialog box
When the Custom Paper Size dialog box appears, the drop-down menu in the Name group
contains one of two things, depending on the current media-size selection on the Paper tab:

Note

●

If the media-size selection is a previously defined custom size, then the drop-down menu
contains the name of that custom size.

●

If the media-size selection is a standard media size, then the drop-down menu shows the
default name Untitled (plus a number sign "#" and a numerical value) for a custom media
size.

In Windows 98 and Windows Me, two names for the same size media can coexist (for example,
"big" and "BIG" can both be used as names for custom-size media measuring 8.4 inches by 11
inches). In Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, and Windows XP, both uppercase and lowercase
names can be used, but they cannot be used to name the same media size.
The new name is compared only against the list of user-defined custom media-size names, and
not against the standard media-size names.
The complete set of titles for this button and the specific characteristics that determine its title
and capabilities are discussed in the Save, Delete, or Rename section.

98

Paper tab features

EN

Name
The Name drop-down menu shows the name of the custom media size that was selected most
recently. Use the Name drop-down menu to select from the list of currently defined custom
media sizes, or to type a new name for a custom media size.
The name that appears in the Name drop-down menu is one of three things, depending on
the following conditions:
●

If a saved custom media size has been selected from the drop-down menu and the
other controls in the dialog box have not been changed since then, the Name dropdown menu shows the name of the last selected custom media size.

●

If the width or height controls have been changed since a custom size was selected or
saved, or if a saved media size has just been deleted, then the Name drop-down menu
shows the default name of "Untitled."

●

If a new name has been typed into the Name drop-down menu for the purpose of
saving a new size or renaming an existing size, then that new name will remain in the
drop-down menu until a saved custom media size has been selected from the dropdown menu.

If you type a new name into the Name drop-down menu, but then do not click the Save
button, you should be able to change the width and height values without losing the name.
However, if a saved media-size name is selected from the drop-down menu, any unsaved
name or size values are lost without warning, and replaced by the values of the selected
custom media size.
Save, Delete, or Rename
The dynamic command button located under the Name drop-down menu has three possible
labels: Save, Delete, and Rename.
●

Save is the button title whenever the height and width values have been changed since
the most recent save action or since the selection of an existing custom media size.
Clicking the button causes the name in the Name drop-down menu to be compared
against each of the saved names. If a duplicate is found, a dialog box appears, asking
if it is okay to replace the existing item. If you click Yes, the old item is updated with the
new values. If you click No, the driver returns to the Custom Paper Size dialog box,
where you can type a different name. The new name is compared only against the list
of user-defined custom media names, and not against the standard media-size names.
Whenever the command button has the Save title, it is the default button.

●

Delete is the button title whenever the name of an existing (previously saved) custom
media size appears in the Name drop-down menu, such as immediately after selecting
an item from the drop-down menu or clicking the Save button. Clicking the Delete
button causes the saved custom media size to be deleted, after which the Name dropdown menu changes to Untitled, the height and width controls are unchanged, and the
button title changes to Save.

●

Rename is the button title when you type something into the Name drop-down menu
after selecting an existing custom media size from the drop-down menu. If no duplicate
is found, then the name of the stored custom media size changes to match the
contents of the Name drop-down menu.

The following table illustrates the relationships between the Name drop-down menu, the
command button, and the actions that take users from one state to another.

Custom size (width and height controls)
The width and height values can be changed either by typing numeric strings into the edit boxes,
or by using the up and down arrows.
Any entry that is greater than the maximum limits of the width and height control is rounded
down to the maximum valid entry, while any entry that is smaller than the minimum limits of the
width and height control is rounded up to the minimum valid entry. See Custom width and height
control limits.

If units are in millimeters, the custom media-size range minimum is the limit rounded up to the
nearest whole millimeter. The custom media-size range maximum is the limit rounded down to
the nearest whole millimeter. Any non-numerical entry reverts to the last valid entry. Width and
height entries are validated when the focus has changed.
The resolution of each control is one millimeter or one-tenth of an inch, depending on the current
measurement units. Clicking the up and down arrows increases or decreases the current value
by the increment amount (within the allowed range of values). The computer determines the rate
at which the values change.
Unit indicator labels change dynamically to indicate inches or millimeters, depending on the
measurement units the driver is currently using. To change measurement units, click the

When you use the mouse to move the pointer over a hot spot, the arrow reverts to a gloved
hand. The current media source tray, whether selected from the drop-down menu or from a
product image hot spot, is highlighted on the product image. The following points are worth noting:
●

The Automatically Select setting in the Source is: drop-down menu does not have a
corresponding area to highlight in the product image. Selecting other settings in this menu
highlights the corresponding part in the product image.

●

Selecting the area that represents a tray in the image always selects the corresponding
tray in the Source is: option. Manual Feed in Tray 1, which is available from the Source
is: drop-down menu, cannot be selected by selecting the image.

●

On the Paper tab, only source trays have product image hot spots and can be highlighted.

Job Storage tab features
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer lets you store print jobs in the product's memory for printing
at a later time. These job-storage features are described in the following sections.
The Job Storage tab appears among the driver tabs only if Job Storage is enabled. To support
job-storage features for complex jobs, or if you often print complex graphics, print postscript
(.PS) documents, or use many downloaded fonts, HP recommends that you install additional
memory, install a hard disk, or both. Added memory also gives you more flexibility in supporting
job storage features. A minimum total memory of 288 MB is required to use Job Storage features.
After a hard disk or additional memory is installed, the driver must be configured to reflect the
changes in the product. If bidirectional communication is enabled in your environment, the
Update Now feature can be used to update the drivers. For more information, see the Configure
tab features in this chapter.
To configure the drivers manually after installing a hard disk or additional memory, follow these
steps:

1

Click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers.

2

Right-click the product name, click Properties, and then click the Configure tab.

If additional memory has been installed, change the setting in the Total Memory: dropdown menu. If you select a minimum of 288 MB, this also selects the Job Storage Enabled
check box.

5

If a hard disk has been installed, select the Printer Hard Disk check box in the Storage
group box. This also selects the Job Storage Enabled check box.

(by the administrator) or user-defined printing specifications, such as media size and pages per
sheet. For more information, see Finishing tab features.

Status group box
The unlabeled group box on the Job Storage tab contains a status message about the
destination of a print job. The status information changes depending on the selections that are
made on the Job Storage tab.

Job Storage Mode
Use the Job Storage Mode options on the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer to store documents
at the product and then control their printing at the product control panel. This feature is intended
to provide greater flexibility, convenience, security, and cost savings.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer offers the following Job Storage Mode options:
●

Off

●

Proof and Hold

●

Private Job

●

Quick Copy

●

Stored Job
●

Require PIN to Print (available when Stored Job is selected)

These options and the settings that control them are described in the following sections.
Off
When selected, this option turns the Job Storage feature off (it is disabled), which means that
the print job will not be stored in the product.
Proof and Hold
To use the Proof and Hold option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must have a
minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When selected, this option stores the print job in memory and prints only the first copy of the job,
allowing you to check the first copy. If the document prints correctly, you can print the remaining
copies of the print job at the control panel. You can set the number of proof-and-hold print jobs
that can be stored in the product at the control panel.

108

Job Storage tab features

EN

After it is released for printing, the proof-and-hold job is immediately deleted from the product. If
more copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If you send a
second proof-and-hold job to the product with the same user name and job name as an existing
proof-and-hold job (and you have not released the original job for printing), the job will overwrite
the existing job. Proof-and-hold jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.
Note

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the
default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held
document. Also, a document that has the same user and job name as one that is already
stored on the hard disk will overwrite the existing document.
Private Job
To use the Private Job option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must have a
minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Private Job, the print job is sent to the product, but is not printed until you
request the job at the product control panel. Selecting Private Job activates the PIN group
box. The print job can be printed only after you type the correct PIN at the control panel.
After the job is printed, the job is deleted from the product. This feature is useful when you
are printing sensitive or confidential documents that you do not want to leave in an output
bin after printing.
After it is released for printing, the private job is immediately deleted from the product. If
more copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If you send a
second private job that has the same user name and job name as an existing private job
(and you have not released the original job for printing), the job will overwrite the existing
job, regardless of the PIN. Private jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.
Using a PIN for Private Job
The Private Job option can be secured by a four-digit personal identification number (PIN).
You must type in this number at the product control panel before the product can print the job.
The group box labeled PIN is usually inactive. It becomes active when you select the Private
Job option.
The Private Job/PIN coupling has a PIN restriction of four ASCII numeric characters (0
though 9). If you type non-numeric characters, they are removed immediately. If you type
more than four characters, the characters past the fourth are truncated. The field temporarily
accepts fewer than four digits in the string, but when the edit field loses focus, the zeroes
pad the left end until the PIN contains exactly four digits. The default initialized value for the
PIN is 0000 for Private Job.
Quick Copy
To use the Quick Copy option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled,
and the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Quick Copy, the entire print job prints and a copy of the print job is stored
on the product, after which you can print additional copies of the print job at the product
control panel. The number of quick-copy print jobs that can be stored in the product is set by
using the product control panel.

EN

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

109

Note

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the
default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held
document. Also, a document that has the same user and job name as one that is already
stored on the hard disk will overwrite the existing document. Quick Copy jobs are deleted if
you turn off the product.
Stored Job
To use the Stored Job option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled, and
the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
Use the Stored Job option to send a print job directly to the product hard disk without printing it.
The print job is stored in the product as if it is an electronic file cabinet. After the print job is
stored on the product hard disk, you can print the job at the product control panel.
The job remains stored in the product until it is deleted or overwritten by a document that has the
same user and job names. Stored jobs remain on the product hard disk when the product is
turned off. Use this feature for forms and other common or shared documents.
A stored job can be managed in two ways: as either a private or a public job. Use a private
stored job to send a print job directly to the product, which can then be printed only after you
type in a PIN at the product control panel. (You can set the PIN in the PIN group box.) After the
job is printed, the job remains in the product and can be printed again at the product control
panel. The private mode is initiated by selecting the Require PIN to Print check box. In this
mode, a PIN that is typed at the product control panel is required in order to release the job.
The box labeled PIN is usually inactive. The Require PIN to Print option becomes available
when you select Stored Job. If you select the Require PIN to Print box, you must type a PIN to
make the stored job private.

Note

A private stored job is not the same as a private job (see above). Private jobs are deleted from
the product after they are printed. Private stored jobs are retained in the product after printing,
but require that a PIN be typed each time they are printed.

Job notification
Clicking a job storage mode selection causes the User Name and Job Name options to become
available. The Display Job ID when printing check box is selected by default. The Display Job
ID when printing option causes a pop-up dialog box to appear when the job-storage print job is
printed. The dialog box shows the user name and job name that are associated with the stored
print job, as well as the product name, port, and location.

110

Job Storage tab features

EN

User Name
Use the User Name settings to help identify the job at the product control panel. The following
are the User Name settings:
●

User Name. This option associates your Windows user name with the stored print job. The
Windows user name automatically appears in the text field below the User Name options.

●

Custom. Use this option to type a custom name for the stored print job. When you click the
Custom radio button, the text field below the option becomes available. The User Name
field can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0 through 9
because the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to type a
lowercase character, it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an
ASCII code of fewer than 32 or more than 126 characters, the character is removed from
the edit field, along with all of the characters that follow it. If you try to type more than 16
characters, any character beyond 16 is truncated.

Job Name
Use the Job Name text box to specify a name to identify the job at the product control panel.
This text box uses Untitled as the default job name associated with the stored print job. The
file name of the print job is used if it is available to the print driver. Otherwise, the software
program name or a time stamp is used for the job name. To enter a custom name, type the
custom job name in the text box. The Job Name text box can contain no more than 16
characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0 through 9 because the name appears on the
product control-panel display. If you try to type a lowercase character, it automatically shifts
to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an ASCII code of fewer than 32 or more than
126 characters, the character is removed from the edit field, along with all of the characters
that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any character beyond 16 is truncated.
PIN
The PIN group box is usually inactive. The option within the PIN group box, PIN to Print, is
activated if you select either of the following options:
●

Select Private Job. If selected, you must type in the PIN number at the product control
panel in order to make the job print. For more information, see Using a PIN for Private
Job .

●

Select Stored Job, and then select the Require PIN to Print check box. If the Require
PIN to Print check box is selected, you must type a PIN in order to make the stored
job private. For more information, see the Stored Job.

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

113

Copies
Use the Copies option to specify the number of copies to print.
The number of copies that you request appears in the Copies group box. You can select the
number by typing in the box or by using the up and down arrows to the right of the text box.
Valid entries are numbers from 1 to 9999 for the HP Color LaserJet 4650. The copies value
will not advance from the maximum number (9999) to 1 when the up arrow is used, or
change from 1 to the maximum number (9999) when the down arrow is used. When you
click another group box or leave the Basics tab, invalid entries into the edit box (such as
non-numerical input, numbers less than 1, or numbers greater than the maximum allowed)
are changed to the last valid value that appeared in the box. The default number of copies is
1.
Because you can set the number of copies that you want from some software programs,
conflicts between the software program you are using and the driver can arise. In most cases,
the software program and the driver communicate, so that the number of copies set in one
location (such as the program) will appear in the other (such as the driver). For some programs,
this communication does not take place, and the copies values are treated independently. For
these programs, setting 10 copies in the program and then setting 10 copies in the driver will
result in 100 copies (10 x 10) being printed. It is recommended that you set the number of copies
in the program, wherever possible.

Orientation
Orientation refers to the layout of the image on the page, and does not affect the manner in
which media is fed into the printer. You can specify the orientation of the print job. The three
available orientations are portrait, landscape, and rotated. The default orientation is Portrait.
Note

Nearly all software programs establish the orientation for the printed page, so the page
orientation in the driver is useful only for the few software programs that do not set an orientation.
The Orientation group box contains three options:
●

Portrait. The top edge of the document is the shorter edge of the media.

●

Landscape. The top edge of the document is the longer edge of the media.

●

Rotate by 180 degrees. This creates a landscape or portrait orientation in which the image
is rotated 180 degrees. This setting is useful for printing prepunched media.

You can toggle orientation between portrait and landscape by clicking the document preview
image. If you select the Rotate by 180 degrees check box, no change occurs in the document
preview image.

Document preview image
The document preview image is a line-drawn image of a page that represents graphics and text.
The document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of all of the Properties driver
tabs (the Finishing, Output, Effects, Paper, Job Storage, and Basics tabs). For more
information about the document preview image, see Finishing tab features.

Neutral Grays
The Neutral Grays drop-down menu controls the selection of a device-dependent color table
that is embedded in the product firmware. The options are Black Only or 4-Color. You can
adjust the Neutral Grays setting independently for text, graphics, or photographs.
●

Black Only. This option generates neutral colors (grays and black) by using only black
toner. This option guarantees that neutral colors do not have a color cast. Black Only is
the default setting for the Text and Graphics components.

●

4-Color. This option generates neutral colors by combining all four colors of toner, which
produces smoother gradients and transitions to non-neutral colors. It also produces the
darkest possible black. 4-Color is the default setting for Photographs.

Halftone
The Halftone setting controls the selection of a product-dependent halftone algorithm that is
embedded in the product firmware. The Halftone options, Smooth and Detail, affect the
resolution and clarity of your color output.

118

●

Detail. This option is optimized for the best reproduction of images, graphics, and large,
solid-filled print areas. It also enhances photographs by smoothing out the fine color
gradations. Select this option when the color fidelity of large objects is the top priority.
Detail is the default setting for all components.

●

Smooth. This option is optimized for the best readability and sharpness of small text.

Color tab features

EN

RGB Color
The RGB Color settings affect the color treatment for object types and determines how colors
are rendered. The options are Default (sRGB), Device, and Vivid.

Note

●

Default (sRGB). This option interprets RGB color space (sRGB), which is the accepted
standard for many software companies and organizations such as Microsoft and the
Worldwide Web Consortium. Default (sRGB) is the default setting for all components.

●

Vivid. This option sets the product to increase the color saturation in the midtones.
Less colorful objects are rendered more colorfully. This value is recommended for
printing business graphics.

●

Device. This option sets the product to print RGB data in raw device mode. To render
photographs correctly when this option is selected, you must manage color in the
software program in which you are working or in the operating system.

If your software program converts text and graphics to raster, the Photographs settings also
control the Text and Graphics settings.

General
Use the General setting group to control Edge Control settings for all color printing.
Edge Control determines how edges are rendered. Edge Control consists of three
components: Adaptive Halftoning, Trapping, and C-REt. Adaptive Halftoning increases the
edge sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color plane misregistration by slightly
overlapping the edges of adjacent objects. C-REt increases the apparent resolution by
placing each dot for the smoothest edges.
The Edge Control option offers four settings:
●

Normal. The Normal setting provides the default trapping settings. Adaptive Halftoning
is set to On, and C-REt is set to On.

●

Light. The Light setting provides minimal trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On
and C-REt is set to On.

●

Maximum. The Maximum setting provides the most trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is
set to On, and C-REt is set to On.

●

Off. The Off setting turns Trapping, Adaptive Halftoning, and C-REt to Off.

Print in Grayscale
Select Print in Grayscale to print a document in black and white. This option is useful for
previewing preliminary copies of slides and hardcopy output quickly or for printing color
documents that will be photocopied or faxed.

The Paper Handling Options group box contains the following controls:
●

●

Mopier Enabled check box

●

Optional Paper Sources drop-down menu

Duplexing Unit
The HP Color LaserJet 4650dn, 4650dtn, and 4650hdtn models are equipped with automatic
2-sided printing (duplexing), which allows you to print on both sides of supported media.
Automatic 2-sided printing is not supported for certain media types, including transparencies,
labels, envelopes, heavy, extra heavy, cardstock, and glossy film.
Note

The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports smart duplexing. The product uses the smart
duplexing feature to detect information on both sides of the print job pages and only runs the
pages through the duplexing unit if there is printable information on the second side of the
page.
Allow Manual Duplexing
Select Allow Manual Duplexing to print on both sides of any size and most types of media
(except transparencies, envelopes, and labels). To use this feature, you must reinsert the
media stack into the input tray to print the second side. The product pauses while you make
this adjustment.
Mopier Enabled
The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HP-designed feature that produces multiple,
collated copies from a single print job. Multiple-original printing (mopying) increases
performance and reduces network traffic by transmitting the job to the product once, and
then storing it on the hard disk. The remainder of the copies are printed at the fastest speed.
All documents that are printed in mopier mode can be created, controlled, managed, and
finished from the computer, which eliminates the extra step of using a photocopier.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports the transmit-once mopying feature when the
product has an installed hard disk or a minimum total memory of 288 MB, and the Mopier
Enabled setting on the Configure tab is on.
Mopier mode and collation
Mopying and collating print jobs are independent but closely related functions. Mopying, the
ability to send multiple original print jobs to the product , is performed by the print driver and
the product . Collating can be controlled by using either the print driver or the document
software program. The mopying mode is selected by default in the driver, and can be
disabled by clearing the Mopier Enabled selection on the Configure tab to disable the
feature.
You can control collation through the print driver by selecting or clearing the Ignore
Application Collation check box on the More Configuration Options dialog box that
appears when you click the More... button on the Configure tab. You can clear the check
box, which is available only when the Mopier Enabled setting on the Configure tab is
selected, to allow the software program to control collation.

To receive uncollated multiple copies of a print job with the mopier enabled, you must clear
the Ignore Application Collation check box and make sure that the software program
collation feature is not selected.
The following table shows the relation between Mopier Enabled settings and collation settings
in the software program and the driver. The first three columns show the settings; the last

Allow Scaling from Large Paper
The Allow Scaling from Large Paper selection can be helpful, for example, when printing a
document with a large media size of 11 x 17 or A3. You can use the Print Document On:
setting on the Effects tab to print the document on a media size that is supported by the
printer.
Ignore Application Collation
This setting overrides collation options that are selected in a software program's print
options. Ignore Application Collation allows the print driver to collate in the most
appropriate way for the print job. The performance of this feature depends on the software
program that you are using.
Printer memory
The Total Memory group box shows the total amount of memory that is physically installed
in the product. The default values for total product memory are specified on the
Configuration tab. Total product memory is updated through a successful bidirectional
query, or can be set manually.
The Driver Work Space (DWS) value shows the amount of memory that is available for
keeping track of fonts that are downloaded from the driver. The driver deletes downloaded
fonts if it has exceeded the available memory value. The (DWS) value is a dynamic value
that varies depending on the specific configuration of the product. An accurate (DWS) value
optimizes driver performance.
The HP Traditional PCL 6 and HP Traditional PCL 5c drivers automatically configure the
(DWS) value in Windows 98, Windows Me, and Windows NT 4.0 environments that support
bidirectional communication. Use the (DWS) option to specify the amount of work-space
memory that is available to the product. To manually set the (DWS) value, print a
Configuration page and find the DWS value in the Memory section of the page. Then, click
the More... button on the Configuration tab, and type the DWS value in the (DWS) field of
the More Configuration Options dialog box.

Job Storage tab features
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer lets you store print jobs in the product's memory for
printing at a later time. These job-storage features are described in the following sections.
The Job Storage tab appears among the driver tabs only if Job Storage is enabled. To
support job-storage features for complex jobs, or if you often print complex graphics, print
postscript (.PS) documents, or use many downloaded fonts, HP recommends that you install
additional memory, install a hard disk, or both. Added memory also gives you more flexibility
in supporting job storage features. A minimum total memory of 288 MB is required to use
Job Storage features.
Bidirectional communication is not supported in Windows 98, Windows Me, or Windows NT
4.0, the operating environments that support the HP PS Emulation Driver. The driver must
therefore be updated manually.

Job Storage Mode
Use the Job Storage Mode options on the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer to store documents
at the product and then control their printing at the product control panel. This feature is intended
to provide greater flexibility, convenience, security, and cost savings.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer offers the following Job Storage Mode options:
●

Off

●

Proof and Hold

●

Private Job

●

Quick Copy

●

Stored Job
●

Require PIN to Print (available when Stored Job is selected)

These options and the settings that control them are described below.
Off
When selected, this option turns the Job Storage feature off (it is disabled), which means
that the print job will not be stored in the product.
Proof and Hold
To use the Proof and Hold option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must
have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When selected, this option stores the print job in memory and prints only the first copy of the
job, allowing you to check the first copy. If the document prints correctly, you can print the
remaining copies of the print job at the control panel. You can set the number of proof-andhold print jobs that can be stored in the product at the control panel.
After it is released for printing, the proof-and-hold job is immediately deleted from the
product. If more copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If
you send a second proof-and-hold job to the product with the same user name and job name
as an existing proof-and-hold job (and you have not released the original job for printing), the
job will overwrite the existing job. Proof-and-hold jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.
Note

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the
default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held
document. Also, a document that has the same user and job name as one that is already
stored on the hard disk will overwrite the existing document.
Private Job
To use the Private Job option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must have a
minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Private Job, the print job is sent to the product, but is not printed until you
request the job at the product control panel. Selecting Private Job activates the PIN group
box. The print job can be printed only after you type the correct PIN at the control panel.
After the job is printed, the job is deleted from the product. This feature is useful when you
are printing sensitive or confidential documents that you do not want to leave in an output
bin after printing.

EN

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

139

After it is released for printing, the private job is immediately deleted from the product. If
more copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If you send a
second private job that has the same user name and job name as an existing private job
(and you have not released the original job for printing), the job will overwrite the existing
job, regardless of the PIN. Private jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.
Using a PIN for Private Job
The Private Job option can be secured by a four-digit personal identification number (PIN). You
must type in this number at the product control panel before the product can print the job.
The group box labeled PIN is usually inactive. It becomes active when you select the Private
Job option.
The Private Job/PIN coupling has a PIN restriction of four ASCII numeric characters (0 though
9). If you type non-numeric characters, they are removed immediately. If you type more than four
characters, the characters past the fourth are truncated. The field temporarily accepts fewer than
four digits in the string, but when the edit field loses focus, the zeroes pad the left end until the
PIN contains exactly four digits. The default initialized value for the PIN is 0000 for Private Job.
Quick Copy
To use the Quick Copy option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled, and
the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Quick Copy, the entire print job prints and a copy of the print job is stored on
the product, after which you can print additional copies of the print job at the product control
panel. The number of quick-copy print jobs that can be stored in the product is set by using the
product control panel.
Note

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the
default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held
document. Also, a document that has the same user and job name as one that is already stored
on the hard disk will overwrite the existing document. Quick Copy jobs are deleted if you turn off
the product.
Stored Job
To use the Stored Job option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled, and
the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
Use the Stored Job option to send a print job directly to the product hard disk without printing it.
The print job is stored in the product as if it is an electronic file cabinet. After the print job is
stored on the product hard disk, you can print the job at the product control panel.
The job remains stored in the product until it is deleted or overwritten by a document that has the
same user and job names. Stored jobs remain on the product hard disk when the product is
turned off. Use this feature for forms and other common or shared documents.
A stored job can be managed in two ways: as either a private or a public job. Use a private
stored job to send a print job directly to the product, which can then be printed only after you
type in a PIN at the product control panel. (You can set the PIN in the PIN group box.) After the
job is printed, the job remains in the product and can be printed again at the product control
panel. The private mode is initiated by selecting the Require PIN to Print check box. In this
mode, a PIN that is typed at the product control panel is required in order to release the job.

The box labeled PIN is usually inactive. The Require PIN to Print option becomes available
when you select Stored Job. If you select the Require PIN to Print box, you must type a PIN to
make the stored job private.
Note

A private stored job is not the same as a private job (see above). Private jobs are deleted
from the product after they are printed. Private stored jobs are retained in the product after
printing, but require that a PIN be typed each time they are printed.

User Name
Use the User Name text box to help identify the job at the product control panel. The
Windows user name is automatically displayed in the User Name text box. To enter a
custom user name, type the custom user name in the text box. The User Name text box can
contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0 through 9 because
the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to type a lowercase
character, it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an ASCII code
of fewer than 32 or more than 126 characters, the character is removed from the edit field,
along with all of the characters that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any
character beyond 16 is truncated.
Job Name
Use the Job Name text box to specify a name to identify the job at the product control panel.
This text box uses Untitled as the default job name associated with the stored print job. The
file name of the print job is used if it is available to the print driver. Otherwise, the software
program name or a time stamp is used for the job name. To enter a custom name, type the
custom job name in the text box. The Job Name text box can contain no more than 16
characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0 through 9 because the name appears on the
product control-panel display. If you try to type a lowercase character, it automatically shifts
to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an ASCII code of fewer than 32 or more than
126 characters, the character is removed from the edit field, along with all of the characters
that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any character beyond 16 is truncated.
PIN
The box labeled PIN is usually inactive. The Require PIN to Print option is activated if you
select either of the following options:

EN

●

Select Private Job. If selected, you must type in the PIN number at the product control
panel in order to make the job print. For more information, see Using a PIN for Private
Job .

●

Select Stored Job, and then select the Require PIN to Print check box. If the Require
PIN to Print check box is selected, you must type a PIN in order to make the stored
job private. For more information, see Stored Job.

Note

Changes made to the Device Settings tab are not reflected in the Document Defaults
settings until the modified device settings have been applied. For example, the duplexing
unit will not appear until you modify the Configure tab, apply the settings, and then re-open
Document Defaults.
The Device Settings tab contains the following options:
●

Form to Tray Assignment

●

Font Substitution Table

●

PostScript Configure

●

Installable Options

Form to Tray Assignment
Many products support more than one source of media, such as upper and lower trays. You
can assign a form (which defines the media size and margins) to each of your product media
sources. When a form is matched to a source, you can select the form when you print from
your software programs. The product prints from the tray to which that form is assigned.

EN

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

145

Network administrators can use the Form to Tray Assignment setting to specify, in the
driver, the media size that is loaded into each available input tray. The use of forms
constrains the choices that are available in the media-size list on the Advanced tab in the
Document Defaults driver tabs. This constraint prevents (or reduces the likelihood of) tying
up the printer with media-mount messages that occur when users request sizes or types that
are not available.
The trays listed in the Form to Tray Assignment setting include standard trays and optional
accessory trays. Generally, items that are installed separately have a separate Installable
Options setting. For example, for the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer, trays 3 and 4 are listed in
both the Form to Tray Assignment setting and the Installable Options setting.
The input trays listed here are also listed as media sources on the Page Setup tab.

Font Substitution Table
Clicking this option opens the font substitution table and makes available the options for
changing the TrueType-to-PostScript font mapping.

PostScript Device Settings
The following controls are available and appear in the PS Emulation Driver:
Available PostScript Memory
This control specifies the amount of available postscript memory and provides a spin box for
changing this value. The available postscript memory is a subset of the product total physical
memory. It is usually best to set the postscript memory to match what is shown on the
Configuration page. To print a Configuration page from the control panel, press the Select
button (the one with the check mark) to open the menus. Next, press the up and down buttons to
scroll to INFORMATION, and then press the select button. Next, press the up and down buttons
to scroll to PRINT CONFIGURATION, and then press the select button.
Output Protocol
This control specifies the protocol that the product uses for print jobs. The following options are
available:
●

ASCII (default)

●

TBCP

●

Binary

When you click ASCII, data is sent in ASCII format (7-bit), which might take longer to print but
can be sent through any I/O channel, such as a serial, parallel, or network port.
When you click TBCP (Tagged Binary Communications Protocol), all data except special control
characters is sent in binary (8-bit) format. The binary formats can be sent over parallel or serial
communications ports and are faster than sending data in ASCII format.
When you click Binary, all data except special control characters is sent in binary (8-bit) format.
The binary formats can be sent over parallel or serial communications ports and are faster than
sending data in ASCII format.

146

Device Settings tab

EN

Send Ctrl-D Before Each Job
This control specifies whether the product will be reset at the beginning of every postscript
document. The default setting is No. Ctrl-D resets the product to its default setting to ensure that
previous print jobs do not affect the current print job. Ctrl-D might cause a print job to fail if the
product is connected through a network. If your document fails to print when sent to a product
connected through parallel or serial ports, change No to Yes.
Send Ctrl-D After Each Job
This control specifies whether the product will be reset at the end of every postscript
document. The default setting is Yes. Ctrl-D resets the product to its default setting to ensure
that future print jobs are not affected by the current print job. Ctrl-D might cause a print job to
fail if the product is connected through a network. If your document fails to print when sent to
a network printer, change Yes to No.
Job Timeout
This control specifies how long the document can take to get from the computer to the
product before the product stops trying to print the document. If you specify 0 seconds, the
product continues trying to print indefinitely. The default setting is 0 seconds. You can use
the spin box to change this value to a maximum of 32,767 seconds.
Wait Timeout
This control specifies how long the product waits to get more postscript information from the
computer. After the specified time passes, the product stops trying to print the document and
prints an error message. If you are trying to print a very complicated document, you might
want to increase this value. If you specify 0 seconds, the product waits indefinitely. The
default setting is 300 seconds. You can use the spin box to change this value to a
maximum of 32,767 seconds.
Minimum Font Size to Download as Outline
This control specifies the minimum font size (in pixels) for which the postscript driver
downloads TrueType fonts as outline (Type 1) fonts. A font smaller than the minimum setting
is downloaded as a bitmap (Type 3) font. Use this option to fine-tune the Automatic setting
for the TrueType Font Download option on the Advanced tab in Document Defaults. The
default setting is 100 pixels. You can use the spin box to change this value to a maximum of
32,767 pixels.
Maximum Font Size to Download as Outline
This control specifies the maximum font size (in pixels) for which the postscript driver will
download TrueType fonts as bitmap (Type 3) fonts. A font larger than the maximum setting
will be downloaded as an outline (Type 1) font. Use this option to fine-tune the Automatic
setting or override the Send TrueType as Bitmap setting for the TrueType Font Download
option on the Advanced tab in Document Defaults. The default setting is 600 pixels. You
can use the spin box to change this value to a maximum of 32,767 pixels.

Installable Options
This section provides information to configure the printing options that you can install for the
HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer. The following controls are available:

EN

●

Tray 3

●

Tray 4

●

Duplex Unit (for 2-sided Printing)

Chapter 3 HP traditional print drivers for Windows

147

●

Printer Memory

●

Printer Hard Disk

●

Job Storage

●

Mopier Mode

Tray 3
This control specifies whether you have Tray 3, an additional 500-sheet media feeder, installed
on your product. The default setting is Not Installed. In order to use Tray 3, you must change
this setting to Installed.
Tray 4
This control specifies whether you have Tray 4, an additional 500-sheet media feeder, installed
on your product. The default setting is Not Installed. In order to use Tray 4, you must change
this setting to Installed.
Duplex Unit (for 2-sided Printing)
The HP Color LaserJet 4650dn, 4650dtn, and 4650hdtn models are equipped with automatic 2sided printing (duplexing), which allows you to print on both sides of supported media. Automatic
2-sided printing is not supported for certain media types, including transparencies, labels,
envelopes, heavy, extra heavy, cardstock, and glossy film.
Note

The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports smart duplexing. The product uses the smart
duplexing feature to detect information on both sides of the print job pages and only runs the
pages through the duplexing unit if there is printable information on the second side of the page.
Printer Memory
This option matches the setting to the amount of memory that is installed in the product. The
driver generates ranges of memory that can be selected, up to the maximum that the product
can accept. The driver can use this information to manage how the print driver uses the product
memory.
When a minimum total memory of 288 MB is installed, the Stored Job option and the Mopier
Mode are enabled in the print driver. The Stored Job option allows you to store print jobs, and
then print them later from the control panel. The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HPdesigned feature that produces multiple, collated copies from a single print job.
Printer Hard Disk
When this option is enabled, the Stored Job option and the Mopier Mode are enabled in the
print driver. The Stored Job option allows you to store print jobs, and then print them later from
the control panel. The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HP-designed feature that
produces multiple, collated copies from a single print job.
Only the HP Color LaserJet 4650hdn comes with a hard disk installed.
Job Storage
If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 is equipped with a hard disk drive, the Job Storage option
should be enabled and all job storage options are available. If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 is
not equipped with a hard disk drive but has a minimum of 288 MB of memory, limited job storage
options are available. When job storage is enabled, the product can store print jobs so that you
can gain access to those print jobs later at the control panel.

148

Device Settings tab

EN

Mopier Mode
The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HP-designed feature that produces multiple,
collated copies from a single print job. Multiple-original printing (mopying) increases performance
and reduces network traffic by transmitting the job to the product once, and then storing it on the
hard disk. The remainder of the copies are printed at the fastest speed. All documents that are
printed in mopier mode can be created, controlled, managed, and finished from the computer,
which eliminates the extra step of using a photocopier.

HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and
HP PS 3 emulation
unidrivers for Windows

Introduction
This chapter describes the features of the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer unidrivers. The
unidrivers are the HP PCL 6 Unidriver, the HP PCL 5c Unidriver, and the HP Postscript 3
Emulation Unidriver (the PS Emulation Unidriver) for Windows 2000, Windows XP, and
Windows Server 2003.
You can control print jobs from several places: the product control panel, the software
program, and the driver user interface. Generally, for features that are common to two or
more of these places (for instance, you can select the media input tray from any of them),
settings that are established in the software program take precedence over print-driver
settings. Print-driver settings override product control-panel settings.

HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and PS emulation
unidriver features
Note

For a comparison of features between the HP unidrivers and HP traditional print drivers in
various operating systems, see the Driver-feature comparison in various operating systems
section of this guide.
When you install the print-system software in Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows
Server 2003, the HP PCL 6 Unidriver is installed by default. The HP PCL 5c Unidriver and
the PS Emulation Unidriver can be installed by performing a Custom Installation.
The following sections describe the options that are available on each tab of the HP PCL 6,
the HP PCL 5c, and the PS Emulation Unidriver interface.
The sections also describe differences between the HP PCL 6, the HP PCL 5c, and the PS
Emulation unidrivers.

Access to drivers
To gain access to driver settings from within most software programs, click File, click Print,
and then click Properties. The appearance and names of the driver tabs can vary,
depending on the operating system. These settings apply only while the software program is
open.
You can also control the drivers directly from the printers folder. These settings change the
default settings used across all software programs. To gain access to the printers folder, click
Start, select Settings, and then click Printers (Windows 2000) or Printers and Faxes (Windows
XP Professional and Windows Server 2003) or Printers and Other Hardware Devices
(Windows XP Home). Right-click the product name, and then click Printing Preferences to gain
access to the same set of driver tabs that the software program controls.
Note

If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer is equipped with a hard disk drive, all Job Storage
options are available (Proof and Hold, Private Job, Quick Copy, and Stored Job). If your
HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer is not equipped with a hard disk drive, but has a minimum of 288
MB of memory, the Proof and Hold and Private Job options are available.
If, after right-clicking the product name, you click Properties, you gain access to a different set
of tabs that control the driver behavior and driver connections.

Help system
The HP PCL 6 Unidriver, the HP PCL 5c Unidriver, and the PS Emulation Unidriver include a fullfeatured Help system to provide assistance with printing and configuration options.
Note

Bubble Help, a feature of HP Traditional PCL 6 and HP Traditional PCL 5c Drivers, is not
available in the HP PCL 6, PCL 5c, and PS Emulation unidrivers.

What's this? Help
Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 support "What's this?" Help. You can
gain access to "What's this?" Help messages in any of the following ways:
●

Click the Help button in the lower-right corner of the Paper/Quality, Finishing, Effects, or
Job Storage tabs for a general Help message that describes the use of the driver tabs.

●

Right-click a control and click What's this?, and a pop-up Help window appears.

●

Click the ? button in the upper-right corner of the frame, next to the X, to change the cursor
to an arrow with a question mark. Use this special cursor to select a control, and the popup Help window for that feature appears.

●

Press the F1 key, and the Help window for the currently selected control appears.

Context-sensitive Help
Click the Help button on a driver tab or in a dialog box, and a context-sensitive Help message
appears.

Incompatible Print Settings messages
Incompatible print settings (constraint) messages are unsolicited messages that appear in
response to specific actions that you take. These messages alert you that the selections are
illogical or impossible given the capabilities of the printer or the current settings of other controls.
Note

Constraint messages are limited for HP unidrivers. The HP unidrivers allow some settings
that are illogical or impossible for the printer to perform. If you try to print with incompatible
settings, the printed documents might have unexpected results because the print driver did
not provide feedback that the settings were incompatible. If print jobs do not print as
expected, check the printer's documentation for the product capabilities.
In Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 operating environments, some
technically invalid print-driver configurations result in the appearance of warning messages.
Duplexing, for instance, is not possible when the Transparency media type is selected. The
following illustration shows an Incompatible Print Settings message that appears.

Figure 4-1.

An Incompatible Print Settings message
Clicking the Resolve all conflicts for me automatically option button and then clicking OK
accepts the change that was just made, and the driver then resets the conflicting control to a
setting that is compatible with the new value. If you want to keep the conflicting setting, click
I will resolve the conflict myself and then click OK.

Advanced tab features
You can use the Advanced tab to change the layout of printed pages. Use this tab to
configure special controls that are not commonly used, as well as features such as media
size and copies in the driver (although most current software programs support these
features in the print dialog box or through the software program page settings). The following
illustration shows the Advanced tab:

Advanced tab features

EN

Paper/Output
The Paper/Output settings contain the following controls:
●

Copy Count setting

●

Collated check box (appears when you select Copy Count)

Copy Count
This driver setting is useful for software programs that do not provide a copy count. If a copy
count is available in the software program, set the copy count in the software program. Copy
Count specifies the number of copies to print.
Because you can set the number of copies that you want from some software programs,
conflicts between the software program you are using and the driver can arise. In most
cases, the software program and the driver communicate, so that the number of copies set
in one location (such as the program) will appear in the other (such as the driver). For some
programs, this communication does not take place, and the copies values are treated
independently. For these programs, setting 10 copies in the program and then setting 10
copies in the driver will result in 100 copies (10 x 10) being printed. It is recommended that
you set the number of copies in the program, wherever possible.
Collated
The Collated check box appears next to the Copy Count setting. The check box is
selected, but is not available. It becomes available and can be changed when the Copy
Count setting is greater than 1.
When collated, pages print consecutively for each copy of the document. When not collated,
copies of each page print together.
This setting is not synchronized with the collate setting in the software program print dialog
box. Settings in the software program override settings in the print driver. For instance, when
using Microsoft Word, the Collate check box in the Print dialog box is selected by default.
However, in the print driver, the Collated check box in the Advanced tab is not selected by
default. The software program setting takes precedence over the driver setting, and the
printed output is collated by default. To obtain uncollated printed output, clear the Collate
setting in both the driver and the software program. Similarly, if the Collated check box is
selected in the driver, but the Collate setting is not enabled in the software program, the
printed output is uncollated.

Graphic
The Graphic settings contain the following option:
●

Image Color Management settings.

Image Color Management
This control lists the available Image Color Management (ICM) options used for printing
color graphics. ICM, a set of calculations for color matching, makes it possible for programs
to adjust colors before printing so that the color of images displayed on the screen more
closely match the color of images when printed. The following options are available:
●

●

ICM Method. The ICM Method setting specifies how to print your color graphics.
●

To enable Image Color Management, click on the option and then select ICM
Enabled.

●

If you want the calculations for color matching to be performed on the host
computer before it sends the document to the product, click ICM Handled by Host
System.

●

If you want the calculations for color matching to be performed on your product, click
ICM Handled by Printer. In this case, a set of rules for mapping the colors will be
created and downloaded to the product. The product will use these rules to adjust
colors in the document.

●

If you want the calculations for color matching to be performed on your product, click
ICM Handled by Printer using printer calibration. In this case, the set of rules for
mapping the colors has already been downloaded to the product (which must be
postscript language level 2 or higher), so they will not be created or downloaded again.

ICM Intent.The ICM Intent setting specifies how color images are created to produce the
best looking image on the printed page.
●

If you are printing a chart or using fully saturated, bright colors, click Graphics.

●

For photographs or pictures where the colors blend together, click Pictures to
maximize the contrast.

●

If your document uses a color that you need to match exactly, and you are sending the
document to a product that has that specific color of ink, click Proof.

●

If you want to preview the color settings from another product, click Match.

Document Options
The Document Options settings contain the following controls:
●

Advanced Printing Features

●

Color Printing Mode

●

Print Optimizations

Advanced Printing Features
When the Advanced Printing Features setting is Enabled, metafile spooling is turned on and
Finishing tab options such as Page Order, Booklet Layout, and Pages per Sheet are
available, depending on your product. For normal printing, leave the Advanced Printing
Features setting at the default (Enabled). If compatibility problems occur, you can disable the
feature. However, some advanced printing features might still be available in the print driver,
even though they have been disabled. If you select an advanced printing feature in the print
driver that has been disabled on the Advanced tab, the feature is automatically re-enabled.

156

Advanced tab features

EN

Color Printing Mode
Color Printing Mode specifies whether to print in Black and White or color. Use
Monochrome mode to sharpen details in graphics or to speed up the printing of your color
document.
Print Optimizations
Note

Print Optimization settings are available only in the HP PCL 6 and HP PCL 5c unidrivers.
They are not available in the PS Emulation Unidriver.
The default setting for Print Optimizations is Enabled. When this feature is enabled and
your document contains overlapping text and graphics, text placed on top of a graphic might
not print correctly. If the printed output is not correct, you can disable this feature. When
disabled, print optimization features, such as substituting device fonts for TrueType fonts
and scanning for horizontal and vertical rules, are turned off.
Printer Features
The following Printer Features are available:
●

Print All Text as Black

●

Send True Type as Bitmap (HP PCL 6 and HP PCL 5c unidrivers only)

●

Raster Compression

Print All Text as Black
The Print All Text as Black feature is Disabled by default. When Enabled is selected, the
driver prints all text as black regardless of the original document text color. Color text is
printed as black, except for white text, which remains white. (White text is a reliable method
of printing reverse typeface against a dark background.) This setting does not affect graphic
images on the page, nor does it affect any text that is part of a graphic.
Send TrueType as Bitmap
Note

The Send TrueType as Bitmap option is available only in the HP PCL 6 and HP PCL 5c
unidrivers. It is not available in the PS Emulation Unidriver.
Send True Type as Bitmap provides an alternative for those software programs that have
trouble using TrueType fonts for special graphic purposes such as shading, rotation, or
slanting. The setting is Disabled (off) by default. The TrueType fonts are first converted to
bitmap soft fonts before downloading. The Enabled setting causes the driver to send
TrueType fonts to the printer as outlines, which retains the standard format (outline) of the
fonts.
Raster Compression

Note

EN

The Raster Compression option is available only in the HP PCL 6 and HP PS Emulation
unidrivers. It is not available in the HP PCL 5c Unidriver.

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

157

Use the Raster Compression feature to select the graphics compression method:
●

Automatic. The software determines the best compression method to use.

●

Best Quality. Forces the software to use a lossless compression method. (Lossless
means that no data is lost during compression.)

●

Maximum Compression. Where applicable, requires the software to always use a
lossy compression method (some data is lost).

Graphics Mode
Note

The Graphics Mode option is available only in the HP PCL 5c Unidriver. It is not available in the
HP PCL 6 and HP PS Emulation unidrivers.
Use the Graphics Mode feature to select one of the following settings:
●

Send Graphics as Vector. Select this setting to send graphics to the product as a
combination of HP Graphics Language, version 2 (HP-GL/2) and raster images. This
setting might produce higher-quality output.

●

Send Graphics as Raster. Select this setting to send all graphics to the product as images
composed of individual dots. This setting might improve printing speed in some cases.

Layout Options
The following Layout Options are available:
●

Orientation

●

Page Order

Orientation
Orientation specifies how the document is positioned on the page. Portrait orients the print
vertically so that the printed image is taller than it is wide. Landscape orients the print
horizontally so that the printed image is wider than it is tall.
Page Order
Page Order specifies the order in which the pages of your document are printed. Front to Back
prints the document so that page 1 prints first. Back to Front prints the document so that page 1
prints last. The Back to Front setting is useful if you are printing to a face-up output bin to
achieve output in the correct order.
Note

158

The page-ordering operation works on whole sheets of media rather than on individual logical
pages. Accordingly, if you set Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) to be greater than one,
the ordering of logical pages on a physical sheet of media does not change.

Print Task Quick Sets
Use the Print Task Quick Sets setting to store the current combination of driver settings
that are found on all of the other print driver tabs (except the Advanced tab, where the
setting is not available). Print Task Quick Sets are either preset by network-administrator
settings or user-defined printing specifications (such as media size, pages per sheet, and so
on). The Print Task Quick Sets control does not appear on the driver Properties tabs.
Note

Administrators can predefine Print Task Quick Sets for their users. These administrator Print
Task Quick Sets are defined on the server and are available to users, but usually cannot be
modified by users. Users can also define Print Task Quick Sets for their own use. User-defined
Print Task Quick Sets are described later in this section.
The following selections are available in the Print Task Quick Sets drop-down menu:

Default Print Settings
When you select Default Print Settings, nearly all of the settings are restored to the
combination that existed after the driver was installed (the original settings). However, if the
attribute combinations that are associated with watermark definitions, custom media sizes, or the
other quick sets have been changed or deleted, the original settings for those items are not
restored.
Type a new Quick Set name here appears in the Print Task Quick Sets menu automatically if
no other driver settings have been changed since the driver was installed, or if all of the driver
settings match the original settings. Otherwise, the setting in the Print Task Quick Sets menu is
the same label that appeared when you last closed the printing Properties dialog box by clicking
OK.
The following table shows the default settings for Print Task Quick Sets. See the HP Driver
Preconfiguration section for information about preconfigurable driver settings.

Size is
The Size is: setting is a drop-down menu that lists all of the supported media sizes.
When you move the mouse over the dimensions label, the mouse cursor changes from an arrow
to a gloved hand. Click the dimensions label to toggle between English and metric units.
Because driver settings are overridden by media-size settings in most software applications,
it is generally best to use the driver to set media size only when you are printing from
software applications that lack a media-size setting, such as NotePad, or when you are
producing a book or a booklet that does not require different media sizes.
Note

Certain software programs can override the size command and specify different media sizes
within a single document.
For information about media sizes, see the Media attributes section of this guide.
Custom paper sizes
1

Click Start, select Settings, and then click Printers (Windows 2000) or Printers and
Faxes (Windows XP Professional and Windows Server 2003) or Printers and Other
Hardware Devices (Windows XP Home) to gain access to the same set of driver tabs
that the software program controls.

Use different paper
When the Use different paper check box is selected and different options are configured,
the Size is:, Source is:, and Type is: menus change, offering a variety of options. For more
information, see Use different paper.
Source Is
The Source is: setting specifies the source tray to use for printing a document. The list of
source trays depends on the printer accessories. Any optional source trays that are installed
through the Device Settings tab also appear here.
The Source is: drop-down menu can contain the following options:

The default setting is Automatically Select. When this setting is selected, the
HP Color LaserJet 4650 uses the source tray that supports the media size that you have
selected. If you select a source tray other than Automatically select, make sure that the correct
media size is loaded in the source tray. For information about media sources, see the Media
attributes section of this guide.
Type is
The Type is: drop-down menu shows all the media types that the HP Color LaserJet 4650
supports. When you use the default setting, Unspecified, the printer uses the default media type,
which is usually Plain.
No mechanism exists for manually adding custom media types through the driver. Custom types
can be added only by using the bidirectional communication mechanism, so they must already
exist in the product when the bidirectional query occurs. If bidirectional communication is
enabled, then the information returned is an updated list of media types. If bidirectional
communication is not enabled, then the driver looks for custom media types saved from a
previous bidirectional communication query, and uses those. Otherwise, no custom media types
are available through the driver.
The following standard types appear in the lists:

●

Size is: is set to any size except for A6, B6 (JIS), or Custom.

When Paper Size is set to Letter, Legal, or A4, selecting Print on Both Sides makes the
Flip Pages Up and Booklet Printing options available.
Automatically printing on both sides
The duplexing unit in the product prints on two sides of a sheet of media when the Print on
Both Sides option is specified in the print job. The HP Color LaserJet 4650dn, 4650dtn, and
4650hdn models come with a duplexing unit installed.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports smart duplexing. The smart duplexing feature
increases printing performance by not sending one-page print jobs or single-sided pages of
a duplexed print job through the duplexing unit even when the duplexing feature has been
enabled in the driver.

EN

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

All media types support the smart duplexing feature, except for media types that cannot be
printed on both sides, such as labels, and the following media types:
●

Prepunched

●

Preprinted

●

Letterhead

When the media type is set to Unspecified, the smart duplexing feature is disabled.
To achieve the best print quality when printing on the second side of the page, the printer needs
to make adjustments to its print modes. When you select a media type, you are, in effect,
instructing the printer to use a group of settings (such as fuser temperature and print speed) to
print the media with the best possible quality. This group of settings is known as a mode or print
mode, and a different print mode is used with each media type. Print-mode adjustments are
automatic when the duplexing unit is used.
Manually printing on both sides
Note

To make the Print on Both Sides (Manually) check box available in the document options, enable
the Allow Manual Duplexing option on the Device Settings tab in the Properties print driver
tabs. See Installable Options in this chapter.
Manually printing on the second side of a page is available when you are using the HP PCL 6,
HP PCL 5c, or the PS Emulation Unidriver. If a duplexing unit is installed and manual duplexing
is enabled in the driver, the printer automatically duplexes media types that are supported by
automatic duplexing (Letter, A4, Legal, 8.5 x 13, and Executive (JIS) only), and forces manual
printing on both sides for media types that are not supported.

When you have completed the steps that appear in the dialog box, the second half of the
print job prints on the back side of the stack of paper. The driver does not require the
application to specifically support odd- and even-page printing, because the driver
coordinates this function.
Flip Pages Up
The Flip Pages Up check box, enabled only when Print on Both Sides is selected, is used
to specify the duplex-binding option. By default, the Flip Pages Up check box is not
selected. The following table demonstrates the results of selecting this box, depending on

occurs on the back side. An arrow on the folded-over corner points in the direction that the
pages would be flipped if they were bound together.
Short-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by flipping over like the pages of a note
pad. Long-side binding is for print jobs with pages that read by turning like the pages of a book.

setting manually to 4, 6, 9, or 16 pages per sheet, the booklet setting is disabled. See the
Printing a Booklet section of this chapter for more information.
The Booklet Layout setting is disabled when A6 or B6 (JIS) is selected as the media size, and
an incompatibility error message appears when you click OK to close the driver.
Book and Booklet Printing
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 supports book and booklet printing.
A book is a print job consisting of at least two pages that can have a different media type for the
first page, other pages, or back cover. Use the First Page, Other Pages, and Back Cover
settings on the Paper/Quality tab (available when you select the Use Different Paper check
box) to select different media for the first page, other pages, and back cover.
A booklet is a print job that places two pages on each side of a sheet that can be folded into a
booklet that is half the size of the media. Use the Booklet Layout drop-down menu on the
Finishing tab to control booklet settings.

Document preview image
The document preview image is a line-drawn image of a page that represents graphics and text.
The document preview image is always oriented so that the contents of the page are right-side
up. The document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of most Printing
Preferences driver tabs (the Paper/Quality, Effects, Finishing, and Color tabs).
Switching between tabs does not change the location or appearance of the document preview
image. When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse cursor
changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and landscape page
orientation by clicking the document preview image.

Rotate
Select this feature to rotate the document image on the media 180 degrees. For example: If the
return address on an envelope is smudged, try this setting and feed the envelope so the return
address area is fed first into the printer.

Resizing options
The Resizing Options group box consists of the following controls.
●

Actual Size (default)

●

Print Document On setting

●

Scale to Fit option

●

% of Normal Size setting

Actual Size
Actual Size is the default setting. It prints the document without changing the document size.
Print Document On
Select the Print Document On radio button to format the document for one media size and then
print the document on a different media size, with or without scaling the image to fit the new
media size.
The Print Document On control is disabled by either of the following conditions:
●

The % of Normal Size value is not 100.

●

The Pages per Sheet value (on the Finishing tab) is not 1.

When Print Document On is selected, the drop-down menu shows the media sizes on which
you can print. The list contains all of the standard media sizes that are supported by the selected
media source and any custom sizes that you have created. When Print Document On is
selected, Scale to Fit is automatically selected.
Scale to Fit
The Scale to Fit option box specifies whether each formatted document page image is scaled to
fit the target media size. By default, Scale to Fit is selected when Print Document On is
selected. If the setting is turned off, then the document page images will not be scaled, and are
instead centered at full size on the target media. If the document size is larger than the target
media size, then the document image is clipped. If it is smaller, then it is centered within the
target media. The following illustration shows preview images for a document formatted for legalsize media with the Print Document On check box selected, and the target size specified as
Letter.

Figure 4-12.

Preview images - Legal on Letter; Scale to Fit off (left) and on (right)
When the size for which the document is formatted (that is, the logical size) differs from the
target size, the preview image uses a dashed gray line to show the boundaries of the logical
page in relation to the target page size.

% of Normal Size
The % of Normal Size option provides a slider bar to use for scaling the percentage setting.
The default setting in the entry box is 100 percent of normal size. Normal size is defined as
the media size that is selected within the driver or what the driver receives from the software
program (if the software program does not negotiate the media size with the driver). The
driver scales the page by the appropriate factor and sends it to the printer.
The limits of the range are from 25 percent to 400 percent, and any values outside the range
are adjusted to those limits as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when
the Tab key is pressed or another control is selected).
Any change to the scale also changes the page preview, which increases or decreases from
the upper-left corner of the preview.
The slider bar controls the scale directly. The value in the edit box changes as the scroll bar
indicator is dragged, and the preview image is updated to the new image scale. Each click
on the scroll bar arrows increases or decreases the scale by one percent. Each click on the
slider bar affects the scale by 10 percent.
You cannot achieve an exact value by dragging the scroll bar indicator at the default
Windows resolution; use the scroll bar indicator to approximate the desired value, and then
use the scroll bar arrows to refine the value.
The following settings disable % of Normal Size:
●

Print Document On (on the Effects tab) is selected

●

Pages per Sheet (on the Finishing tab) is not 1

Document preview image
The document preview image is a line-drawn image of a page that represents graphics and
text. The document preview image is always oriented so that the contents of the page are
right-side up. The document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of most
Printing Preferences driver tabs (the Paper/Quality, Finishing, Effects and Color tabs).
Switching between tabs does not change the location or appearance of the document
preview image. When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse
cursor changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and
landscape page orientation by clicking the document preview image.

Watermarks
Use the Watermarks feature to choose a watermark, create your own custom watermarks
(text only), or edit an existing watermark. The following watermarks are preset in the driver:
●

(none)

●

Confidential

●

Draft

●

SAMPLE

The drop-down menu shows alphabetically sorted watermarks that are currently available on
the system, plus the string "(none)", which indicates that no watermark is selected. This is
the default setting. Any watermark selected from this list appears in the preview image.

EN

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

179

When the First Page Only check box is selected, the watermark is printed only on the first
page of the document. The First Page Only check box is disabled when the current
watermark selection is "(none)".
Watermarks are applied to logical pages. For example, when Pages per Sheet is set to "4" and
First Page Only is turned off, four watermarks appear on the physical page (one on each logical
page).
Click Edit, and the Watermark Details dialog box appears.

Figure 4-13.

Watermark Details
The dialog box shows a preview image and provides options for creating a new watermark and
controlling the message angle and font attributes.
Click OK to accept all of the changes that are made in the Watermark Details dialog box.
However, clicking Cancel does not cancel all of the changes. If you make changes to a
watermark, and then select a different watermark or click New, all of the changes made to the
previous watermark are saved, and only the current, unsaved changes can be canceled.
Current watermarks
The Current Watermarks group box contains a list of available watermarks, both predefined
watermarks made available in the driver and any new watermarks you have created.

180

Effects tab features

EN

To create a new watermark, click New. The new watermark appears in the Current Watermarks
list and in the Watermark Message edit box as "Untitled" until you name it. The name that you
type in the Watermark Message field appears in the Current Watermarks group box in the
Watermark Details dialog box and in the Watermarks group box on the Effects tab.
To name the new watermark, type the selected watermark text in the Watermark Message
edit box. To delete a watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list and
click Delete. A warning appears asking whether you are sure you want to delete the
selected item. Click Cancel if you want to keep the watermark. Click OK to delete the
selected watermark.
Note

You can have no more that 30 watermarks in the Current Watermarks list at one time.
When you reach the limit of 30 watermarks, the New button is disabled.
To edit an existing watermark, select the watermark in the Current Watermarks list. If you
change the Watermark Message for that watermark, you are, in effect, creating a new
watermark.
Watermark Message
The Watermark Message is also the name that identifies the watermark in the Current
Watermarks list, except when more than one watermark has the same message. For
example, you might want several different watermarks with the message DRAFT, each with
a different typeface or font size. When this occurs, the string is appended with a space, a
pound sign, and a number (for example, Draft #2). When a number is added, the number
two is used first, but if the resulting name is also in the list, then the number increases until
the name is unique (Draft #3, Draft #4, and so on).
Message Angle
Use the controls in the Message Angle group box to print the watermark in different
orientations on the page. The settings are Diagonal, Horizontal, or Angle (custom). The
default is Diagonal. All three settings automatically center the watermark string within the
page; the selection of a particular setting affects only the angle of the string placement.
Diagonal places the text along a line that spans the lower-left to upper-right corners of the
page. Horizontal places the text along a line that spans the mid-left and mid-right edges of
the page. Angle places the text at the specified angle across the page.
Font Attributes
Use the controls in the Font Attributes group box to change the font and the shading, size,
and style of the font.
The Font Attributes group box contains the following controls.
●

Name drop-down menu

●

Color drop-down menu

●

Shading drop-down menu

●

Size spin box

●

Style drop-down menu

Name
The Name drop-down menu lists fonts that are currently installed on the system. The default
is language-dependent.

Job Storage tab features
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer lets you store print jobs in the product's memory for printing
at a later time. These job-storage features are described in the following sections.
The Job Storage tab appears among the driver tabs only if Job Storage is enabled. To support
job-storage features for complex jobs, or if you often print complex graphics, print postscript
(.PS) documents, or use many downloaded fonts, HP recommends that you install additional
memory, install a hard disk, or both. Added memory also gives you more flexibility in supporting
job storage features. A minimum total memory of 288 MB is required to use Job Storage features.

Print Task Quick Sets
Use the Print Task Quick Sets control to store the current combination of driver settings that
are found on all other Printing Preferences driver tabs. Print task quick sets are either preset or
user-defined printing specifications, such as media size and pages per sheet. For more
information, see the Paper/Quality tab features section of this guide.

Status group box
The unlabeled group box on the Job Storage tab contains a status message about the
destination of a print job. The status information changes depending on the selections that
are made on the Job Storage tab.

Job Storage Mode
Use the Job Storage Mode options on the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer to store
documents at the product and then control their printing at the product control panel. This
feature is intended to provide greater flexibility, convenience, security, and cost savings.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer offers the following Job Storage Mode options:
●

Off

●

Proof and Hold

●

Private Job

●

Quick Copy

●

Stored Job
●

Require PIN to Print (available when Stored Job is selected)

These options and the settings that control them are described below.
Off
When selected, this option turns the Job Storage feature off (it is disabled), which means
that the print job will not be stored in the product.
Proof and Hold
To use the Proof and Hold option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must
have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When selected, this option stores the print job in memory and prints only the first copy of the
job, allowing you to check the first copy. If the document prints correctly, you can print the
remaining copies of the print job at the control panel. You can set the number of proof-andhold print jobs that can be stored in the product at the control panel.
After it is released for printing, the proof-and-hold job is immediately deleted from the
product. If more copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If
you send a second proof-and-hold job to the product with the same user name and job name
as an existing proof-and-hold job (and you have not released the original job for printing), the
job will overwrite the existing job. Proof-and-hold jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.

EN

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

185

Note

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the default
is 32. When this preset limit is reached, a newer document will overwrite the oldest. Also, a
document that has the same user and job name as one that is already stored on the hard
disk will overwrite the existing document.
Private Job
To use the Private Job option, Job Storage must be enabled, and the product must have a
minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Private Job, the print job is sent to the product, but is not printed until you
request the job at the product control panel. Selecting Private Job activates the PIN group box.
The print job can be printed only after you type the correct PIN at the control panel. After the job
is printed, the job is deleted from the product. This feature is useful when you are printing
sensitive or confidential documents that you do not want to leave in an output bin after printing.
After it is released for printing, the private job is immediately deleted from the product. If more
copies are needed, you must reprint the job from the software program. If you send a second
private job that has the same user name and job name as an existing private job (and you have
not released the original job for printing), the job will overwrite the existing job, regardless of the
PIN. Private jobs are deleted if you turn off the product.
Using a PIN for Private Job
The Private Job option can be secured by a four-digit personal identification number (PIN). You
must type in this number at the product control panel before the product can print the job.
The group box labeled PIN is usually inactive. It becomes active when you select the Private
Job option.
The Private Job/PIN coupling has a PIN restriction of four ASCII numeric characters (0 though
9). If you type non-numeric characters, they are removed immediately. If you type more than four
characters, the characters past the fourth are truncated. The field temporarily accepts fewer than
four digits in the string, but when the edit field loses focus, the zeroes pad the left end until the
PIN contains exactly four digits. The default initialized value for the PIN is 0000 for Private Job.
Quick Copy
To use the Quick Copy option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled, and
the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
When you select Quick Copy, the entire print job prints and a copy of the print job is stored on
the product, after which you can print additional copies of the print job at the product control
panel. The number of quick-copy print jobs that can be stored in the product is set by using the
product control panel.

Note

186

The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold
jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the
default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held
document. Also, a document that has the same user and job name as one that is already stored
on the hard disk will overwrite the existing document. Quick Copy jobs are deleted if you turn off
the product.

Job Storage tab features

EN

Stored Job
To use the Stored Job option, a hard disk must be installed, Job Storage must be enabled, and
the product must have a minimum total memory of 288 MB.
Use the Stored Job option to send a print job directly to the product hard disk without
printing it. The print job is stored in the product as if it is an electronic file cabinet. After the
print job is stored on the product hard disk, you can print the job at the product control panel.
The job remains stored in the product until it is deleted or overwritten by a document that has
the same user and job names. Stored jobs remain on the product hard disk when the
product is turned off. Use this feature for forms and other common or shared documents.
A stored job can be managed in two ways: as either a private or a public job. Use a private
stored job to send a print job directly to the product, which can then be printed only after you
type in a PIN at the product control panel. (You can set the PIN in the PIN group box.) After
the job is printed, the job remains in the product and can be printed again at the product
control panel. The private mode is initiated by selecting the Require PIN to Print check box.
In this mode, a PIN that is typed at the product control panel is required in order to release
the job.
The box labeled PIN is usually inactive. The Require PIN to Print option becomes available
when you select Stored Job. If you select the Require PIN to Print box, you must type a
PIN to make the stored job private.
Note

A private stored job is not the same as a private job (see above). Private jobs are deleted
from the product after they are printed. Private stored jobs are retained in the product after
printing, but require that a PIN be typed each time they are printed.

Job notification
Clicking a job storage mode selection causes the User Name and Job Name options to
become available. The Display Job ID when printing check box is selected by default. The
Display Job ID when printing option causes a pop-up dialog box to appear when the jobstorage print job is printed. The dialog box shows the user name and job name that are
associated with the stored print job, as well as the product name, port, and location.

User Name
Use the User Name settings to help identify the job at the product control panel. The
following are the User Name settings:

EN

●

Windows User Name. This option associates your Windows user name with the
stored print job. The Windows user name is automatically displayed in the text field
below the Windows User Name options.

●

Custom. Use this option to type a custom name for the stored print job. When you click
the Custom option button, the text field below the option becomes available. The User
Name field can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0
through 9 because the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to
type a lowercase character, it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a
character in an ASCII code of fewer than 32 or more than 126 characters, the
character is removed from the edit field, along with all of the characters that follow it. If
you try to type more than 16 characters, any character beyond 16 is truncated.

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

187

Job Name
Use the Job Name options to specify a name to identify the job at the product control panel. The
following are the Job Name settings:
●

Automatic. This option automatically generates the job name associated with the stored
print job. The file name of the print job is used if it is available to the print driver. Otherwise,
the software program name or a time stamp is used for the job name.

●

Custom. Use this to type a custom job name for the stored print job. When you click the
Custom option button, the text field below the option becomes available.

The Job Name field can contain no more than 16 characters, and is limited to A through Z and 0
through 9 because the name appears on the product control-panel display. If you try to type a
lowercase character, it automatically shifts to uppercase. If you try to type a character in an
ASCII code of fewer than 32 or more than 126 characters, the character is removed from the edit
field, along with all of the characters that follow it. If you try to type more than 16 characters, any
character beyond 16 is truncated.
When the dialog box is closed, or as soon as the focus is removed from the control (that is, when
the Tab key is pressed or another control is selected), an empty string is replaced with
Automatic. The acceptable characters for job name and user name vary for each operating
system. The string must be of a length and type that can appear on the product control-panel
display.

PIN
The PIN group box is usually inactive. The option within the PIN group box, PIN to Print, is
activated if you select either of the following options:
●

Select Private Job. If selected, you must type in the PIN number at the product control
panel in order to make the job print. For more information, see Using a PIN for Private Job .

●

Select Stored Job, and then select the Require PIN to Print check box. If the Require
PIN to Print check box is selected, you must type a PIN in order to make the stored job
private. For more information, see Stored Job .

●

Vivid. This option sets the product to increase the color saturation in the midtones. Less
colorful objects are rendered more colorfully. This value is recommended for printing
business graphics.

●

Device. This option sets the product to print RGB data in raw device mode. To render
photographs correctly when this option is selected, you must manage color in the software
program in which you are working or in the operating system.

If your software program converts text and graphics to raster, the Photographs settings also
control the Text and Graphics settings.

General
Use the General setting group to control Edge Control settings for all color printing.
Edge Control determines how edges are rendered. Edge Control consists of three
components: Adaptive Halftoning, Trapping, and C-REt. Adaptive Halftoning increases the edge
sharpness. Trapping reduces the effect of color plane misregistration by slightly overlapping the
edges of adjacent objects. C-REt increases the apparent resolution by placing each dot for the
smoothest edges.
The Edge Control option offers four settings:
●

Normal. The Normal setting provides the default trapping settings. Adaptive Halftoning is
set to On, and C-REt is set to On.

●

Light. The Light setting provides minimal trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to On and CREt is set to On.

●

Maximum. The Maximum setting provides the most trapping. Adaptive Halftoning is set to
On, and C-REt is set to On.

●

Off. The Off setting turns Trapping, Adaptive Halftoning, and C-REt to Off.

Print in Grayscale
Select Print in Grayscale to print a document in black and white. This option is useful for
previewing preliminary copies of slides and hardcopy output quickly or for printing color
documents that will be photocopied or faxed.

Form to Tray Assignment
A network administrator can use Form to Tray Assignment to specify the media size in
each input tray.
The HP Color LaserJet 4650 supports more than one source of media. You can assign a form
(which defines the media size and margins) to each of your printer media sources. When a form
is matched to a source, you can select the form when you print. The product prints from the tray
to which that form is assigned.
Network administrators can use the Form to Tray Assignment setting to specify, in the driver,
the media size that is loaded into each available input tray. The use of forms constrains the
choices that are available in the media-size list on the Advanced tab in the Document Defaults
driver tabs. This constraint prevents (or reduces the likelihood of) tying up the printer with mediamount messages that occur when users request sizes or types that are not available.
The trays listed in the Form to Tray Assignment setting include standard trays and optional
accessory trays. Generally, items that are installed separately have a separate Installable
Options setting. For example, for the HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer, trays 3 and 4 are listed in
both the Form to Tray Assignment setting and the Installable Options setting.
The input trays listed here are also listed as media sources on the Paper/Quality tab.
Configuring the trays
1

Select the appropriate tray in the Form to Tray Assignment list.

2

Use the drop-down menu to select the media size (or form) that is loaded in that tray.

3

Repeat steps 1 and 2 for the remaining trays.

Tray 3
This control specifies whether you have Tray 3, an additional 500-sheet media feeder,
installed on your product. The default setting is Not Installed. In order to use Tray 3, you
must change this setting to Installed.
Tray 4
This control specifies whether you have Tray 4, an additional 500-sheet media feeder,
installed on your product. The default setting is Not Installed. In order to use Tray 4, you
must change this setting to Installed.
Duplex Unit (for 2-Sided Printing)
The HP Color LaserJet 4650dn, 4650dtn, and 4650hdn series printers come with a duplex
unit installed. This setting is enabled (Installed) by default.
Note

The HP Color LaserJet 4650 printer supports smart duplexing. The product uses the smart
duplexing feature to detect information on both sides of the print job pages and only runs the
pages through the duplexing unit if there is printable information on the second side of the
page.
Allow Manual Duplexing
Some printer models do not support automatic 2-sided printing. However, you can print on
both sides of a page using manual 2-sided printing when this option is enabled.
Printer Memory
This option matches the setting to the amount of memory that is installed in the product. The
driver generates ranges of memory that can be selected, up to the maximum that the
product can accept. The driver can use this information to manage how the print driver uses
the product memory.
When a minimum total memory of 288 MB is installed, the Stored Job option and the
Mopier Mode are enabled in the print driver. The Stored Job option allows you to store print
jobs, and then print them later from the control panel. The multiple-original print (mopy)
function is an HP-designed feature that produces multiple, collated copies from a single print
job.
Printer Hard Disk
When this option is enabled, the Stored Job option and the Mopier Mode are enabled in
the print driver. The Stored Job option allows you to store print jobs, and then print them
later from the control panel. The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HP-designed
feature that produces multiple, collated copies from a single print job.

EN

Chapter 4 HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, and HP PS 3 emulation unidrivers for Windows

199

Only the HP Color LaserJet 4650hdn comes with a hard disk installed.
Job Storage
If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 is equipped with a hard disk drive, the Job Storage option
should be enabled and all job storage options are available. If your HP Color LaserJet 4650 is
not equipped with a hard disk drive but has a minimum of 288 MB of memory, limited job storage
options are available. When job storage is enabled, the product can store print jobs so that you
can gain access to those print jobs later at the control panel.
Mopier Mode
The multiple-original print (mopy) function is an HP-designed feature that produces multiple,
collated copies from a single print job. Multiple-original printing (mopying) increases performance
and reduces network traffic by transmitting the job to the printer once, and then storing it in the
printer hard disk. The remainder of the copies are printed at the fastest speed. All documents
that are printed in mopier mode can be created, controlled, managed, and finished from the
computer, which eliminates the extra step of using a photocopier.
When you use the HP PCL 6, HP PCL 5c, or PS Emulation unidriver, mopying is performed in
one of two ways, either through the software or through the product hardware. When the mopier
is enabled, mopying takes place through the product hardware by default. One copy of a multiplepage print job is transmitted once through the network to the product, together with a printer job
language (PJL) command directing the product to make the specified number of copies.
When you disable the mopier, you are not necessarily disabling mopying, which can still be
performed by the driver through the software rather than the product hardware (the mopying
path that is disabled when you change the Mopy Mode setting to Disabled). However, a
multiple-copy print job sent with the mopier disabled loses the advantage of transmitting the print
job once, since the print job is sent through the network as many times as the number of copies
selected.
Mopier mode and collation
Mopying and collating print jobs are independent but closely related functions. Mopying, the
ability to send original print jobs to the product, is performed by the print driver. Collating can be
controlled by either the print driver or the document software program. The mopying mode is
selected by default in the driver, and can be disabled by changing the Mopier Mode setting on
the Device Settings tab to Disabled.
You can control collation through the print driver by selecting or clearing the Collated check box
on the Advanced tab. You can clear the check box, which is available only when the Copy
Count option is set to more than 1 copy, to allow the software program to control collation.
To receive uncollated multiple copies of a print job, you must clear the Collated check box and
make sure that the software program collation feature is not selected.
The following table shows the relation between mopier mode settings and collation settings in
the software program and the driver. The first three columns show the settings; the last column,
"Expected result", shows how a 3-page print job would appear.

Point and Print installation for Windows 98, Me, NT 4.0,
2000, XP, and 2003
Point and Print is a Microsoft term that describes a two-step driver installation process. The
first step is to install a shared driver on a network print server. The second step is to "point"
to the print server from a network client so that the client can use the print driver.
Note

This section outlines the procedures for installing print drivers by using Point and Print. If
these procedures are not successful, contact Microsoft.
Hewlett-Packard provides drivers that are compatible with the Point and Print feature, but
this is a function of the Microsoft operating systems, not of HP print drivers. Windows
NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and Windows Server 2003 drivers from HP are
supported only on Intel X86 processor types. Any other processor types must use Windows
NT 4.0 drivers from Microsoft.
To install the print driver on a Windows NT 4.0, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows
Server 2003 server, you must have administrator privileges. To completely install the
Windows NT 4.0 print driver on the Windows NT 4.0 server (or the Windows 2000 print
driver on the Windows 2000 server), you must have administrator privileges on the server.
The Windows NT 4.0 Printer .INF file (or the Windows 2000 Printer .INF file) must contain
the same product name as the Windows 98 or Windows Me printer .INF file.
Point and Print installation of a postscript driver is supported only with a Microsoft
Windows 98 or Windows Me PS driver version 4.0 or later.
In a homogenous operating system environment (one in which all of the clients and servers
running the same operating system), the same print driver version that is vended from the
server to the clients in a Point and Print environment also runs and controls the print queue
configuration on the server.
However, in a mixed operating system environment (one in which servers and clients might
run on different operating systems), conflicts can occur when client computers run a version
of the print driver that is different from the one on the print server. With Windows NT 4.0,
print drivers executed in kernel mode. A kernel mode process runs in a specially privileged
part of the operating system that gives the process access to all of the system resources.
Consequently, a misbehaving driver can cause serious system stability problems, including
operating system crashes. In an effort to increase operating system stability, Microsoft
determined that, starting with Windows 2000 and continuing with all future operating
systems, print drivers would run as user-mode processes. User-mode drivers execute in a
protected part of the operating system just like all of the normal end-user processes and
software programs. A user-mode print driver that misbehaves is capable of crashing only the
process in which it is running, and cannot crash the whole operating system. Because
access to critical system resources is restricted, overall operating system stability is
increased.

Installing the Macintosh printing system
On a Macintosh-compatible computer, the installation procedures are the same for a network
administrator, a network client, and a single user. Install the software on any computer that has
access rights to the printer.
Note

If the computer is connected to the printer by a LocalTalk (printer port) or EtherTalk connection,
you must configure the AppleTalk (or network) control panel for the correct connection to
communicate with the product. You must set up the HP Color LaserJet 4650, connect it to the
computer or network, and turn it on before the software is installed. Macintosh OS systems do
not support parallel connections. You can use a cross-over Ethernet cable for a direct
connection to a computer running the Macintosh OS. In the following instructions, "XXXX"
represents the HP Color LaserJet 4650:
The Macintosh partition contains an installer program for each language. Find the appropriate
language for the operating system that is being used, and then use the installer program for that
language.
