Networking
The 2500L and 2500 models provide an EIO slot for an optional HP Jetdirect print server card
for fast and easy connectivity. (The 2500n and 2500tn models include the HP Jetdirect print
server card.)
All common network protocols such as Ethernet, Token Ring, and LocalTalk are available using
HP Jetdirect print server cards.
Wireless networking (802.11b) is available with the HP Jetdirect print server card (model
J6058A).
Enhanced memory and
memory expansion
The printer comes with 64 MB of memory and can be expanded to 256 MB with the DIMM slots.
Most documents can be printed using the standard amount of printer memory through the aid of
Memory Enhancement technology (MEt). MEt automatically compresses data, virtually doubling
the printer memory and allowing more complex printing with available memory.
Energy savings
The printer automatically conserves electricity by substantially reducing power consumption
when not printing.
