Wireless with a router (infrastructure network)

The HP Photosmart Software CD and included USB setup cable provide an easy way to connect the HP Photosmart to your wireless network.

For optimal performance and security in your wireless network, HP recommends you use a wireless router or access point (802.11) to connect the product and the other network elements. When network elements are connected through a wireless router or access point, this is called an infrastructure network.

To connect the HP Photosmart to an integrated wireless WLAN 802.11 network, you will need the following:

A wireless 802.11 network that includes a wireless router or access point.

A desktop computer or laptop with either wireless networking support, or a network interface card (NIC). The computer must be connected to the wireless network that you intend to install the HP Photosmart on.

Broadband Internet access (recommended) such as cable or DSL.

If you connect the HP Photosmart on a wireless network that has Internet access, HP recommends that you use a wireless router (access point or base station) that uses

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).

Network name (SSID).

WEP key or WPA Passphrase (if needed).

Wireless without a router (ad hoc connection)

Use this section if you want to connect the HP Photosmart to a wireless-capable computer without using a wireless router or access point.

There are two methods you may use to connect the HP Photosmart to your computer using an ad hoc wireless network connection. Once connected, you can install the

HP Photosmart software.

▲ Turn on the wireless radio for the HP Photosmart and the wireless radio on your computer. On your computer, connect to the network name (SSID) hpsetup , which is the default ad hoc network created by the HP Photosmart.

OR

▲ Use an ad hoc network profile on your computer to connect to the product. If your computer is not currently configured with an ad hoc network profile, consult the Help file for your computer Operating System for the proper method to create an ad hoc profile on your computer. Once the ad hoc network profile has been created, insert the installation CD that came with the product and install the software. Connect to the ad hoc network profile you created on your computer.

NOTE: An ad hoc connection can be used if you do not have a wireless router or access point but do have a wireless radio on your computer. However, an ad hoc connection may result in a lower level of network security and possibly reduced performance when compared to an infrastructure network connection using a wireless router or access point.

Add the HP Photosmart to a network 7

Chapter 2

To connect the HP Photosmart to a Windows computer with an ad hoc connection, the computer must have a wireless network adapter and an ad hoc profile. Create a network profile for a Windows Vista or Windows XP computer using the directions below.

NOTE: If you have an operating system other than Windows Vista or Windows XP,

HP recommends that you use the configuration program that came with your wireless

LAN card. To find the configuration program for your wireless LAN card, access your computer's list of programs.

To create a network profile

NOTE: The product comes configured with a network profile with hpsetup as the network name (SSID). However, for security and privacy HP recommends you create a new network profile on your computer as described here.

e . In the Network key box, type a WEP key that has exactly 5 or exactly 13 alphanumeric (ASCII) characters. For example, if you enter 5 characters, you might enter ABCDE or 12345 . Or, if you enter 13 characters, you might enter

ABCDEF1234567 . (12345 and ABCDE are examples only. Select a combination of your choosing.)

Alternatively, you can use HEX (hexadecimal) characters for the WEP key. A HEX

WEP key must be 10 characters for 40 bit encryption, or 26 characters for 128 bit encryption.

f . In the Confirm network key box, type the same WEP key you typed in the previous step.

NOTE: You must remember the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase

Information on paper 19

Chapter 5 to purchase. HP papers are designed for the best quality results. In addition, follow these tips:

• Do not use paper that is too thin, that has a slick texture, or that stretches easily. It can feed incorrectly through the paper path, causing paper jams.

• Store photo media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo paper to the plastic bag.

• Do not leave unused photo paper in the paper tray. The paper might start to curl, which might reduce the quality of your printouts. Curled paper can also cause paper jams.

• Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print quality.

• Do not use paper that is heavily textured. It can cause graphics or text to print improperly.

• Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the paper tray; the entire stack of paper in the paper tray must be the same size and type.

• For best results, do not allow printed photos to stack up in the paper tray.

• Store printed photos under glass or in a storage book to prevent bleeding over time from high humidity.

Check the estimated ink levels

You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to replace a cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining in the cartridges.

NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or unavailable.

NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.

NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the product and cartridges for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage .

To check the ink levels from the HP Photosmart Software

1.

In the HP Solution Center, click Settings , point to Print Settings , and then click

Printer Toolbox .

NOTE: You can also open the Printer Toolbox from the Print Properties dialog box. In the Print Properties dialog box, click the Features tab, and then click the

Print and evaluate a print quality report

Print quality issues can occur for a variety of reasons. You might be using the wrong software settings or printing a poor quality source file, or there might be a problem with the printing system in the HP Photosmart. If you are unhappy with the quality of your prints, you can print a print quality report to help you determine if the printing system is working properly.

To print a print quality report

1.

Load letter or A4 unused plain white paper into the paper tray.

2.

Press the top-left, bottom-left, top-left, and top-left buttons in sequence.

The Engineering Menu appears.

3.

Press OK to select Manufacturing Menu .

Press OK to select print-mech tap tests .

6.

Press the top-right button until the code displayed changes to 72.

7.

Press OK .

The product prints a print quality report that you can use to diagnose print quality issues.

To evaluate the print quality report

1.

Check the ink levels shown on the page. If a cartridge shows very low ink levels and you find the print quality unacceptable, consider replacing that ink cartridge. Print quality typically deteriorates as cartridges run out of ink.

NOTE: If the print quality report is not legible, you can check the estimated ink levels from the control panel or HP Photosmart Software.

Print and evaluate a print quality report 49

NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace the ink cartridges until print quality becomes unacceptable.

2.

Look at the color bars in the middle of the page. The bars should be solid, have sharp edges, and extend with uniform color all the way across the page.

Figure 11-1 Color bars - expected result

• If any of the color bars are irregularly streaked, lighter on one side, or contain one or more streaks of a different color, refer to the following steps.

Figure 11-2 Color bars - irregularly streaked or faded bar (top bar)

Figure 11-3 Color bars - color mixing (yellow bar contains magenta streaks)

◦ Check the estimated ink levels in the cartridges.

◦ Check if the cartridge corresponding to the streaked bar has the orange tab removed.

◦ Reinstall the cartridge and make sure all of the cartridges are properly installed.

50 Maintain the HP Photosmart

◦ Clean the printhead, and then print this diagnostic page again.

◦ If cleaning the printhead does not solve this print quality issue, replace the cartridge corresponding to the streaked bar.

NOTE: If replacing the cartridge does not solve this print quality issue, contact HP support for service.

• If any of the color bars show regular white streaks, refer to the following steps.

◦ If line 11 on the diagnostic page reads PHA TTOE = 0 , align the printer.

◦ If line 11 on the diagnostic page shows a different value or aligning does not help, clean the printhead.

NOTE: If cleaning the printhead does not solve this print quality issue, contact HP support for service.

3.

Look at the large text above the alignment pattern. The type should be sharp and clear.

Figure 11-4 Sample text area - expected result

• If the type is jagged, align the printer, and then print this diagnostic page again.

Figure 11-5 Sample text area - jagged text

• If the text is uneven and ragged at one end, clean the printhead, and then print this diagnostic page again. If this occurs right after a new cartridge is installed, the automatic device servicing routines may solve the problem in a day or so.

Figure 11-6 Sample text area - uneven ink distribution

• If the text is smeared, check if the paper is curled, clean the printhead, and then print this diagnostic page again.

If you do not see any defects on the print quality report, then the printing system is working correctly. There is no reason to replace supplies or have the product serviced, because they are functioning properly. If you still have a print quality problem, here are some other things you can check:

• Check the paper.

• Check the print settings.

• Make sure your image has sufficient resolution.

• If the problem seems confined to a band near the edge of your printout, use the software you installed with the product or another software application to rotate the image 180 degrees. The problem might not appear on the other end of the print.

Scan troubleshooting

Use this section to solve these scan problems:

Scanned image is incorrectly cropped

Scanned image shows dotted lines instead of text

Text format is incorrect

Text is incorrect or missing

Scanned image is incorrectly cropped

Solution: The autocropping feature in the software crops anything that is not part of the main image. Sometimes this might not be what you want. In that case, turn off autocropping in the software and crop the scanned image manually, or not at all.

Cause: The software was set to automatically crop scanned pictures.

Scanned image shows dotted lines instead of text

Solution: Make a black-and-white copy of the original and then scan the copy.

Cause: If you used the Text image type to scan text that you planned to edit, the scanner might not have recognized color text. The Text image type scans at 300 x 300 dpi, in black and white.

If you scanned an original that has graphics or artwork surrounding the text, the scanner might not have recognized the text.

Text format is incorrect

Solution: Some applications cannot handle framed text formatting. Framed text is one of the scan document settings in the software. It maintains complex layouts, such

NOTE: If you are using HP Photosmart Essential, the Optical Character

Recognition (OCR) software might not be installed on your computer. To install the OCR software, you must re-insert the software disk and select OCR under the

Custom installation options.

Cause: The scan document settings were not set to the correct optical character recognition (OCR) language. The OCR language tells the software how to interpret the characters it sees in the original image. If the OCR language does not match the language in the original, the scanned text might be incomprehensible.
