®
XP, Windows Vista™, and Windows 7 operating

most current versions of the following software and utilities can be downloaded from the following
HP website for use with the displays as needed:

Auto-adjustment Pattern Utility—Optimizes the display.
HP Network Sign Manager (HP LD4210 and HP LD4710 only)—Allows you to select and control
the display options remotely from a connected media player/computer and allows you to select
the options for the HP Media Sign Player. For more details on the HP Media Sign Player, refer to
Using the HP Media Sign Player on page 42. To install and configure the HP Network Sign
Manager software, refer to the HP Network Sign Manager User Guide (available only in English)
included on the CD provided with the display.
NOTE: If the display does not include a CD, the .INF and .ICM files can be downloaded from the HP
displays support website. Refer to
Downloading from the Web on page 29.
The information file
The setup information, or .INF file, defines display resources used by Microsoft
®
Windows operating
systems to ensure display compatibility with the media player/computer’s graphics adapter.
The image color matching file
The image color matching, or .ICM file, is a color data file that is used in conjunction with graphics
applications to provide consistent color matching from display screen to printer, or from scanner to the
display screen. The .ICM file is only activated from within the graphics applications that support this
feature.
