This printer ships with several helpful software applications for
Windows and Mac OS users, as well as for Network Administrators.
These programs are summarized below.
HP JetSend communications
HP JetSend is a technology from Hewlett-Packard that allows devices
to communicate with each other simply and directly. HP JetSend is
built into your printer, allowing it to receive information from any
HP JetSend-enabled sending device anywhere on your network,
whether it is in the same office or at a remote location. When you use
the HP InfraRed Receiver accessory, your printer also can receive
information from any HP JetSend-enabled infrared device. Examples
of HP JetSend sending devices include digital cameras, computers or
laptops running HP JetSend software, or scanners with HP JetSend
built in. HP JetSend uses simple IP addressing between networked
devices and cableless communication between infrared devices.
