Printer software
The printing-system software is included with the printer. See the getting started guide for installation instructions.
The printing system includes software for end users and network administrators, and printer drivers for access to the printer features and communication with the computer.
NOTE
For a list of the network environments that the network-administrator software components support, see
For a list of printer drivers and updated HP printer software for the HP Color LaserJet 3000 Series printer, go to www.hp.com/go/clj3000_software . For the HP Color LaserJet 3600 Series printer, go to www.hp.com/go/clj3600_software . For the HP Color LaserJet 3800 Series printer, go to www.hp.com/go/clj3800_software .

(PDL), a host-based printer language. HP JetReady 4.2 uses the combined power of the computer and
ENWW Printer software 9
the printer to render the printed page in a Windows or Macintosh system environment. HP JetReady
4.2 transfers the prerendered pages from the host computer to the printer and communicates instructions to the printer about how to convert the pages to data that can be printed.
The HP JetReady 4.2 PDL driver is available on the installation CD for the following operating systems:
●
Windows 98, Windows Millenium Edition (Me)
●
Windows 2000

Print-media specifications
For optimum results, HP recommends using HP media that is designed for HP Color LaserJet printers.
Use media with a weight between 75 g/m
2
to 120 g/m
2
(20 to 32 lb bond). Although the printer supports media with weights between 60 g/m 2 to 220 g/m 2 (16 to 58 lb bond), using lighter or heavier media could impact the paper-jam rate and the optimal print-quality performance.
Always use the correct media-type setting in the printer driver, and configure the trays for the correct media type. HP recommends testing any paper before buying it in large quantities.
