Figure 3-13 Preview images – Legal on Letter; Scale to Fit off (left) and on (right) When the size for which the document is formatted (that is, the logical size) differs from the target size, the preview image uses a dashed gray line to show the boundaries of the logical page in relation to the target paper size.
document preview image appears in the upper-right corner of the following Printing Preferences driver tabs: ● Printing Shortcuts ● Paper/Quality ● Effects ● Finishing Switching between tabs does not change the location or appearance of the document preview image. When you move the mouse over the document preview image, the mouse cursor changes from an arrow to a gloved hand. You can toggle between portrait and landscape page orientation by clicking the image.
Click Edit, and the Watermark Details dialog box appears. Figure 3-14 Watermark Details dialog box The dialog box shows a preview image and provides options for creating a new watermark and controlling the message angle and font attributes. Click OK to accept all of the changes that are made in the Watermark Details dialog box. However, clicking Cancel does not cancel all of the changes.
Watermark Message The Watermark Message is also the name that identifies the watermark in the Current Watermarks list, except when more than one watermark has the same message. For example, you might want several different watermarks with the message DRAFT, each with a different typeface or font size. When this occurs, the string is appended with a space, a pound sign, and a number (for example, Draft #2).
◦ Medium ◦ Medium Dark ◦ Dark ◦ Very Dark ◦ Darkest These values represent the intensity of the gray that is used. Select Light to produce a lightly saturated gray watermark. Select Lightest to produce the lightest shade of watermark. Select Darkest to produce a black watermark. ● Size Font sizes from 1 to 999 points are available from the Size menu. The default point size is language-dependent.
Finishing tab features NOTE: The Finishing tab is located on the Printing Preferences tab set. Use the Finishing tab to print booklets and control the paper output. The following figure shows the Finishing tab.
● Booklet Layout ● Pages per Sheet ● Print Page Borders ● Page Order Print on Both Sides The default setting for the Print on Both Sides option, or Print on Both Sides (manually) for non-duplexing models, is off (not selected).
Print on both sides automatically The duplexing unit in the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 and the HP LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M525 product prints on two sides of a sheet of paper when the Print on Both Sides option is specified in the print job. This product supports smart duplexing.
Booklet Layout The Booklet Layout drop-down menu, visible when Print on Both Sides is selected, offers choices that are based on the current paper size. The default setting for the Booklet Printing drop-down menu is Off. The other settings have the following format, where [paper size] depends on the paper size that is set on the Paper/Quality tab: ● Left Binding ● Right Binding When you select Left Binding or Right Binding, the document preview image changes to show the location of the binding.
● 6 pages per sheet ● 9 pages per sheet ● 16 pages per sheet NOTE: When you select an option other than 2 pages per sheet and Print on both sides is selected, booklet printing is unavailable. Related controls indented beneath Pages per Sheet are Print Page Borders and Page Order, which become active when Pages per Sheet is greater than 1. Print Page Borders Print Page Borders sets a line around each page image on a printed sheet to help visually define the borders of each logical page.
Orientation Orientation refers to the layout of the image on the page, and does not affect the way that paper feeds into the product. You can specify the orientation of the print job. The three available orientations are portrait, landscape, and rotated. The default orientation is Portrait. NOTE: Nearly all software programs establish the orientation for the printed page, so the page orientation in the driver is useful only for the few software programs that do not set an orientation.
Job Storage tab features NOTE: The Job Storage tab is located on the Printing Preferences tab set. Use the job-storage feature to store print jobs in the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 and the HP LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M525 product memory or hard disk for printing at a later time. The Job Storage tab appears among the driver tabs only if the job-storage feature is enabled on the Device Settings tab.
Figure 3-17 Job Storage tab The Job Storage tab contains the following controls: NOTE: Information about using the job-storage feature when printing is also provided here.
Status group box The unlabeled group box on the Job Storage tab contains a status message about the destination of a print job. The status information changes depending on the selections that are made on the Job Storage tab. Job Storage Mode Use the Job Storage Mode options on the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 and the HP LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M525 product to store documents at the product and then control their printing at the product control panel.
NOTE: The product configuration can be set to hold a maximum of 50 quick-copy or proof-and-hold jobs. The number is set at the product control panel in the CONFIGURATION menu, and the default is 32. When this preset limit is reached, the new document overwrites the oldest held document. Also, a document that has the same user name and job name as one that is already stored on the printer hard disk will overwrite the existing document.
Stored Job To use the Stored Job option, a hard disk must be installed on the product and the job-storage feature must be enabled. Use the Stored Job option to send a print job directly to the printer hard disk without printing it. The print job is stored in the product as if it is an electronic file cabinet. After the print job is stored on the printer hard disk, you can print the job at the product control panel.
Encrypt Job (with password) The option Encrypt Job with password provides end-to-end secure print job transmission with mutual authentication on the supported devices. The print job is sent and stored encrypted, and can only be printed after entering the password on the device. Set a password for encrypting a job 1. Enter a sequence of numeric characters, from 4 to 32 characters in length, in the Password field. Each numeric character will accept numbers from 0 to 9. 2.
Job Name Use the Job Name options to specify a name to identify the job at the product control panel. The following are the Job Name settings: ● This option, which is the default selection, automatically generates the job name that is associated with the stored print job. The file name of the print job is used if it is available to the print driver. Otherwise, the software program name or a time stamp is used for the job name. ● Custom.
Use job-storage features when printing To use job-storage features when printing, follow these steps: 1. Click File, and then click Print from the software program. The Print dialog box appears. NOTE: Clicking the print icon in the software program toolbar prints the job without using jobstorage features. 2. Click Properties or Preferences. The Properties or Preferences dialog box appears. NOTE: The label for the button that opens the Printer Preferences dialog box varies between software programs.

Services tab features NOTE: The Services tab is located on the Printing Preferences tab set. The Services tab is shown in the following figure.
Internet Services The Internet Services group box contains the Select a destination drop-down menu with the following selections: ● Online diagnostic tools. This is the HP Instant Support Web site, where you can find interactive tools and contacts for troubleshooting. ● Support and troubleshooting. This is the main Web site for the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 and the HP LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M525 product support. ● Product manuals.
Device Settings tab features NOTE: The Device Settings tab is located on the Properties tab set. Available options depend on the feature. The following figure shows the Device Settings tab. Figure 3-19 Device Settings tab The Device Settings tab contains controls for paper-handling devices and controls for managing the HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 MFP M525 and the HP LaserJet Enterprise flow MFP M525 product.
