- When text that is printed with the HP PCL 5e driver is not optimal, try one of the following,
depending on your driver and operating system, and reprint your document:
1. To use the HP LaserJet PCL 5e print driver:
a. Win 9x, Win Me, Win NT: Check the 'Send TrueType as Bitmaps' box on the
'Finishing\Print Quality Details' page in the driver's 'Printing Preferences' or 'Properties'.
b. Win 2000, Win XP: Enable the 'Send TrueType as Bitmaps' feature on the 'Advanced'
page of the print driver's 'Printing Preferences' or 'Properties'.
2. Use the host-based driver.
- The host-based driver does not support print driver vending (point 'n print).
- When uninstalling the HP LaserJet 1010 software, if you use the 'Add or Remove' feature in
the 'HP LaserJet 1010' program group, you will need the software CD. However, if you use the
'Add/Remove Programs' feature in the Windows Control Panel group, you will not need the
software CD.
- If you use the Opera browser to access HP toolbox, please use the latest version of the
browser for best results.
- With Windows 98/Me, if the HP LaserJet 1010 software installer does not give you an option
to select the Customization Utility, run the following command from the software CD drive: '<CD
Drive>:\hpsetup.exe /a', where <CD Drive> is the letter of the drive in which the CD is installed.
- To have full printer driver functionality when printing a document to file using the
HP LaserJet PCL 5e, or the HP LaserJet PS driver with Win XP or Win 2000, you must create a
'Local Port' and map the printer driver to that port.
- In the Windows or Mac OS X environments, the printer symbol set can be set by accessing
the printer's embedded web server directly or through the HP toolbox. In the DOS environment,
set the symbol set as follows:
1. Find the '.pjl' file for your language in the 'DOS' folder at the root of the software CD.
2. From a DOS window, copy the file to the printer port (for example, 'copy /b <filename>
LPTx', where x is your LPT port number). Please read the 'SYMreadme.txt' file at the root of the
software CD for detailed instructions.
- Windows XP 64-bit print drivers for HP LaserJet 1010 printers will be available only on the
web.
- HP toolbox for Mac OS X is available only on the web. The print drivers for the Mac
operating system are available on the software CD and the web.
- Installation of the software on a Novell network using the HP software installer is not
supported. To install print drivers on a Novell Network, use Novell's driver installer.
