P1600 Series Printers - Software Technical Reference

PDEs

Printer Dialog Extensions (PDEs) are code plug-ins that provide access to product features, such as

number of copies, duplexing, and quality settings. The PDEs are HP additions to Apple's print driver.

HP Embedded Web Server

Mac OS X v10.4 and later support the HP Embedded Web Server (HP EWS) on wireless and network

capable models. Use the HP LaserJet Utility to control features that are not available in the driver. Use

the HP EWS to perform the following tasks:

●

Name the product and assign it to a zone on the AppleTalk network.

●

Change product settings.

●

Set a password for the product.

●

From the computer, lock out functions on the control panel to prevent unauthorized access (see

the printing-software help).

system software, and technical assistance.

Online help

This HTML-based help system replaces the Apple Guide help system that was provided with

Mac OS 9.x HP products. The help system is in English only, and can be viewed through a browser or

in the Macintosh OS Help Center.

Screen fonts

The printing-system software for Macintosh operating systems no longer includes a font installer. The

HP LaserJet Professional P1100/P1560/P1600 Series Printer product uses previously installed system

fonts when it is installed on a Macintosh computer.
