virtually eliminate printer downtime by
enabling status monitoring, proactive alert messages
and remote troubleshooting.
The HP Toolbox software provides a single access point
to all printer information, allowing you to view printer
status and manage printing functions from your computer
instead of from the printer control panel.
Flexible media options let you use color for everything
from internal business documents to colorful marketing
presentations, because the printer is designed with
media type sensing capabilities that automatically select
the best print quality for your specific media. You don’t
have to configure the driver or control panel settings.
Add color without adding
to your budget
The HP Color LaserJet 3500 Series printers are
host-based, meaning they rely on the host computer
to process the print job, and therefore require less
processor power and memory—resulting in a more
affordable color printer. For some host-based printers,
there are performance penalties to consider, but with
HP’s host-based printer language, HP JetReady 4.0,
printer data is compressed and streamed so efficiently
that product costs are lowered without sacrificing
performance or print quality, delivering a higher
value printer for your business.
HP JetReady 4.0 is an HP Page Description Language
(PDL) based on PCL 6 and pre-rendered pages. JetReady
is used to transfer pre-rendered pages from the host to
the printer and instruct the printer on how to convert the
pages to be HP LaserJet engine-ready data.
Print vibrant color images and sharp black text at up
to 12 pages per minute. The printer’s instant-on fuser
virtually eliminates warm-up time, so there is no
performance penalty for allowing your printer to enter
Powersave mode. And, HP’s optimal-yield print cartridges
deliver ongoing savings.
Optimal data transfer rates are ensured with the built-in
Hi-Speed USB 2.0 port. Transfer rates are up to 40 times
faster than USB 1.1 devices—fast enough to keep pace
with your professional printing needs. With best-in-class
HP Jetdirect print servers, you can share the value of
this color printing solution over a wide range of network
environments. The printer also supports a variety of
wireless connectivity options.
