HP ePrint
With HP ePrint, you can print from email connected mobile phones, netbooks, or other
mobile devices—anywhere, anytime. Using your mobile device service and the
printer’s Web Services, you can print documents to a printer that could be sitting next
to you or sitting thousands of miles away.
To use the HP ePrint service, you need to have the following components:
• An HP ePrint-enabled printer that is connected to the Internet (either using an
Ethernet cable or wireless connection)
• A device that has a functioning email capability

Print on both sides (duplexing)
You can print on both sides of a sheet of media either manually or automatically, by
using the duplexer.
NOTE:The printer driver does not support manual duplexing. Two-sided printing
requires an HP Automatic Two-sided Printing Accessory (duplexer) to be installed
on the printer.
This section contains the following topics:
•
Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page
•
Perform duplexing
Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page
• Always use media that conforms to the printer specifications. For more information,
see 
Media specifications.
• Specify two-sided printing options in your application or in the printer driver.
• Do not print on both sides of transparencies, envelopes, photo paper, glossy
media, or paper lighter than 16 lb bond (60 g/m
2) or heavier than 28 lb bond (105 g/
m2). Jams might occur with these media types.
• Several kinds of media require a specific orientation when you print on both sides
of a page. These include letterhead, preprinted paper, and paper with watermarks
and prepunched holes. When you print from a computer running Windows, the
printer prints the first side of the media first. Load the media with the print side
facing down.
• For auto-duplexing, when printing finishes on one side of the media, the printer
holds the media and pauses while the ink dries. Once the ink dries, the media is
pulled back into the printer and the second side is printed. When printing is
complete, the media is dropped onto the output tray. Do not grab it before printing
is complete.
• You can print on both sides of supported custom-sized media by turning the media
over and feeding it into the printer again. For more information, see 
Media
specifications.
Perform duplexing
NOTE:You can perform manual duplexing by first printing only the odd pages,
flipping the pages over, and then printing only the even pages. For more
information, see 
Guidelines for printing on both sides of a page.
To print automatically on both sides of a page (Windows)
1.Load the appropriate media. For more information, see 
Guidelines for printing on
both sides of a page and Load media.
2.Make sure the duplexer is installed correctly. For more information, see 
Install the
duplexer.

							Scanning documents as editable text
When scanning documents, you can use the HP software to scan documents into a
format that you can search, copy, paste, and edit. This allows you to edit letters,
newspaper clippings, and many other documents.
To ensure that the software can convert your documents successfully, do the following:
•Make sure the scanner glass or ADF window is clean.
When the printer scans the document, smudges or dust on the scanner glass or
ADF window can be scanned, as well, and can prevent the software from
converting the document to editable text.
•Make sure the document is loaded correctly.
When scanning documents as editable text from the ADF, the original must be
loaded into the ADF with the top forward and face up. When scanning from the
scanner glass, the original must be loaded with the top facing the right edge of the
scanner glass. Also, make sure the document is not skewed. For more information,
see 
Load an original on the scanner glass or Load an original in the automatic
document feeder (ADF).
•Make sure the text on the document is clear.
To successfully convert the document to editable text, the original must be clear
and of high quality. The following conditions can cause the software to not convert
the document successfully:
◦The text on the original is faint or wrinkled.
◦The text is too small.
◦The structure of the document is too complex.
◦The text is tightly spaced. For example, if the text that the software converts
has missing or combined characters, rn might appear as m.
◦The text is on a colored background. Colored backgrounds can cause images
in the foreground to blend too much.

Send a standard fax from the computer
You can send a document on your computer as a fax, without printing a copy and
faxing it from the printer.
