HP Proactive Support
HP Proactive Support helps reduce costly printer downtime by preemptively identifying, diagnosing and
resolving printer issues before they become problems for you. HPs Proactive Support tool is designed
to help businesses of all sizes reduce support costs and maximize productivity—all with the click of a
mouse.
A component of the HP Imaging and Printing suite of services, Proactive Support helps you gain control
of your printing environment—with a clear focus on maximizing the value of your investment, increasing
printer uptime and reducing printer management costs.
HP recommends that you enable Proactive Support right away to save you time and prevent problems
before they occur, reducing costly downtime. Proactive Support runs diagnostics and checks for
software and firmware updates.
You can enable Proactive Support in the HP Printer Utility, where you can specify the frequency of
connections between your computer and HPs Web server, and the frequency of diagnostic checks. You
can also choose to run the diagnostic checks at any time.
●Under Windows, there are two ways of accessing HP Proactive Support from the HP Printer Utility.
◦Select Tools > HP Proactive Support.
◦Click near the bottom of the window where you see the text HP Proactive Support is
disabled on your system.
●Under Mac OS, select Information > Printer Status > Printer Details. The HP Printer Monitor
will open. Select Preferences > Monitoring > HP Proactive Support.
If Proactive Support finds any potential problem, it notifies you with an alert, which will explain the
problem and recommend a solution. In some cases, the solution may be applied automatically; in other
cases, you may be asked to perform some procedure to solve the problem.

							Glossary
AppleTalkA suite of protocols that Apple Computer developed in 1984 for computer networking, not supported
by this printer. Apple now recommends TCP/IP networking instead.
BonjourApple Computers trade name for its implementation of the IETF Zeroconf specification framework, a
computer network technology used in Apples Mac OS X from version 10.2 onwards. It is used to discover services
available on a local area network. It was originally known as Rendezvous.
Color accuracyThe ability to print colors that match the original image as closely as possible, bearing in mind
that all devices have a limited color gamut and may not be physically capable of matching certain colors precisely.
Color consistencyThe ability to print the same colors from a particular print job from print to print and from
printer to printer.
Color modelA system of representing colors by numbers, such as RGB or CMYK.
Color spaceA color model in which each color is represented by a specific set of numbers. Many different color
spaces can use the same color model: for instance, monitors generally use the RGB color model, but they have
different color spaces, because a particular set of RGB numbers results in different colors on different monitors.
CutterA printer component that slides back and forth across the platen to cut the paper.
ESDElectroStatic Discharge. Static electricity is common in daily life. It is the spark when touching the car door,
or the cling of clothing. Although controlled static electricity has some useful applications, uncontrolled electrostatic
discharges are one of the main hazards to the electronics products. Therefore, to prevent damage some
precautions are needed when setting up the product, or handling ESD sensitive devices. This type of damage may
reduce the life expectancy of the device. One way to minimize uncontrolled ESDs, and therefore reduce this type
of damage is by touching any exposed grounded part of the product (mainly metal parts) before handling ESD
sensitive devices (such as the printheads or ink cartridges). Additionally, to reduce the generation of electrostatic
charge in your body try to avoid working in a carpeted area, and keep your body movements to a minimum when
handling ESD sensitive devices. Also, avoid working in low humidity environments.
EthernetA popular computer networking technology for local area networks.
FirmwareSoftware that controls your printers functionality and is stored semi-permanently in the printer (it can
be updated).
GamutThe range of colors and density values reproducible on an output device, such as a printer or monitor.
Gloss enhancerA clear fluid that improves gloss uniformity and eliminates bronzing as an image quality issue
on photo papers. It is not used on matte papers.
I/OInput/Output: this term describes the passing of data between one device and another.
ICCThe International Color Consortium, a group of companies that have agreed on a common standard for color
profiles.
Ink cartridgeA removable printer component that stores ink of a particular color and provides it to the printhead.
IP addressA unique identifier that identifies a particular node on a TCP/IP network. It consists of four integers
separated by dots.
