The HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017 MFP perform multiple tasks such as printing, scanning,
and copying. Depending on which functions are in use, the HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017
MFP can perform many functions at the same time. This high level of multitasking is made possible by
a scan location that is separate from the paper path. These products also feature at least 96 MB of
memory that can efficiently manage multiple tasks, and a scan-ahead feature that quickly clears the
scan paper path for subsequent jobs.
The following table shows which tasks the HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017 MFP can perform
while another function is already in use.
NOTE The HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017 MFP can perform multiple tasks when
directly connected to a computer or when connected to a network. The scan functions are not
available through a Windows sharing (peer-to-peer) connection.

Differences between the network-connected and direct-connected
configurations
On a network, you can perform nearly all of the product functions just as if the HP Color LaserJet CM1015
MFP/CM1017 MFP was directly connected to a computer. The following are a few exceptions:
●
One-touch scanning with the Start Scan button on the control panel of the HP Color
LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017 MFP is not supported on networked MFPs. The Start Scan button
on the control panel of the HP Color LaserJet CM1015 MFP/CM1017 MFP starts the HP LaserJet
Scan software on the computer in direct connections.
●
The Scan to e-mail or folder functionality is turned off by default for network connections. Turn
on this function in the HP Solution Center for networked computers.
●
The Scan to e-mail or folder entries will be prefixed with a host name abbreviation for networked
computers in order to differentiate among computers on the network.
