HP AutoStore (with the Watch Folder feature) picks up the file and passes it for
downstream processing. This includes routing to a content management
application. The application not only routes the document directly to an
application in native file format, but also provides data fields that provide
instructions for indexing, processing and/or routing the document.

folder)

Front of the Printer
The components located at the front of the all-in-one are:
1. Print Carriage Access Door Handle: The print-carriage access door handle
is lifted to open the print-carriage access door.
2. Print Carriage Access Door: The supplies area consisting of printheads and
ink cartridges is located under the print-carriage access door. Therefore,
the print-carriage access door is the gateway to access the printing
supplies area.
3. Output Tray: The output tray is the location for collecting the output. The
output tray supports all types of media, such as paper and transparency.
The output tray can hold up to 100 sheets of plain paper. You can change
the settings in the Control Panel and the Embedded Web Server (EWS) to
pause the printing process when the output tray is full. There is no sensor
that alerts when the tray is empty. The tray is assumed empty after
counting/printing 100 pages. The printer pauses waiting for human
intervention. This is called unattended printing.
4. Tray 1: Tray 1 is used for loading media, such as paper, envelopes, cards,
transparencies, and photo paper in the HP Officejet 9100 all-in-one series.
Tray 1 can hold up to a maximum of 150 sheets of paper and 30
transparencies.
5. Paper Level Indicator: The Paper Level Indicator is an indicator in tray 1
that shows the amount of paper left in the tray.
6. Memory card slot: The HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one comes with a
memory card reader that can read several types of memory cards
including digital camera memory cards. The all-in-one features four slots,
one slot for each of the types of memory cards listed below.
• CompactFlash I and II
• Secure Digital
• Memory Stick
• SmartMedia
• Multimedia Card
• Secure Digital Card

The all-in-one supports direct printing and digital sending from each of the
above listed formats and needs internal EIO print server card.
7. Tray 2: Tray 2 is also used for loading media and is an optional accessory
for HP Officejet 9110 all-in-one. Tray 2 (250 sheet version) comes with HP
Officejet 9120 all-in-one and HP Officejet 9130 all-in-one. (Tray 2 has two
variants, a 250-sheet tray and a 500-sheet tray)

phone cord from the HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one to the phone jack
on the wall, for using the fax capabilities of the all-in-one. An additional
device, such as phone or modem can be connected to the phone line
using the "Phone" port to use the phone line for email or access to the

JetDirect print server all-in-one card for networking.
3. Parallel port: The HP Officejet 9100 series comes with a bi-directional, and
IEEE-1284 compliant parallel port. The 1284 parallel port refers to the
connector type at the end of the parallel cable that attaches to the all-inone. Some categories of the connector type include 1284-B and 1284-C.
4. Universal Serial Bus (USB) port: The USB port is used to connect the to the
computer using a USB cable for plug and play printing support. Unlike the
parallel port, a USB port can be used to connect a single computer to
multiple peripherals at the same time.
5. Power input connection: The power input is the interface in which a power
cable is attached to the all-in-one. It provides the required power supply to
the all-in-one.
6. Auto-duplex unit: The auto-duplex unit facilitates automatic printing on
both sides of paper. This functionality is not supported for transparencies
and envelopes.

competitive speed test suites
competitive speed test suites
What are competitive test suites?
HP's laser-quality speed (LQS) is an HP-developed specification that helps
customers compare the print speeds of HP Business Inkjets and HP Color LaserJets.
In other words, the LQS benchmarks the page-per-minute speeds of the HP Business
Inkjet series printers against the HP Color LaserJets at comparable print quality. This
comparison is based solely on HP's internal tests.
Performance benchmarking is achieved using the following:
• Total of 50 plus mono and color files from more than 10 popular office
applications
• Approximately total of 280 pages (14% b/w, 86% color)
The parameters are:
• Typical applications, such as Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Netscape Navigator,
Acrobat, Word Perfect, Lotus Notes, Internet Explorer, Publisher, Corel Draw,
Photo Shop, Freelance, and Adobe Illustrator
• Complexity
• Length
What are the benefits that LQS provides to a customer?
Fair Comparison: This provides a reasonable standard to compare a HP business
inkjet against a HP color laser without the benefit of having an industry standard
speed specification across laser and ink.
Robust Testing: Using a complete suite of representative office applications,
document lengths and complexities ensure that business inkjets deliver close to
customer experiences.
Note
All current HP business inkjet printers have this specification defined.

HP PhotoREt Color Layering Technology
HP's Photo Resolution Enhancement technology 3 (photoREt 3) uses small (5
picoliter), precisely placed drops of ink that visually blend together to create rich
colors, smooth gradations, and cleanly defined color boundaries. This type of
technology works with the printer resolution to deliver superb results without
creating large file sizes and without slowing down the printing process.

Digital Send
The HP Officejet 9120 all-in-one, and HP Officejet 9130 all-in-one support digital
send feature allows the all-in-one to scan the paper documents or hardcopies to
a digital format. The digitalized format can be transmitted as email, fax, or to any
network folder across the network. Some of the digital send features include:
Send-to-email
The send-to-email feature allows the user to convert a hard copy document or an
image from the photocard to an email. The email can be distributed across the
network from the control panel. The HP Officejet 9120 all-in-one and HP Officejet
9130 all-in-one contains a localized keyboard for using the send-to-email feature.
The keyboard is an optional accessory for HP Officejet 9110 all-in-one.
Send-to-network folder
The send-to-network folder feature allows the user to convert a hard copy
document to a softcopy. The softcopy can be stored in the repository and can be
distributed and shared across the network. The HP Officejet 9120 all-in-one and HP
Officejet 9130 all-in-one contains a localized keyboard for using the send-tonetwork folder feature.

Digital fax archive
The digital fax archive feature allows the incoming faxes to be stored in a
designated folder in the digitalized format. All the incoming faxes are stored in the
repository without any user intervention.
ReadIris
ReadIris is an Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software that is used to import
scanned text into a preferred word-processing program for editing. This allows the
user to edit faxes, letters, newspaper clippings, and many other documents.
For direct connections, the all-in-one enables the user to specify the wordprocessing program that the user wants to use for editing. If the word-processing
icon is not present or active, either the user does not have the word-processing
software installed on the computer, or the scanner software does not recognize
the program during the installation.
The OCR software does not support the scanning of colored text. Colored text is
always converted to grayscale text before being sent to OCR. Thus, all text in the
final document is in grayscale, regardless of the original color.
CUE
The HP CUE Director provides easy software access to the main all-in-one
functions: copy, fax, scan, device settings, and help.
Note
The HP Officejet 9110 all-in-one and HP Officejet 9120 all-in-one can be upgraded to
HP Officejet 9130 all-in-one by adding the keyboard for digital send.

Setup and Configure
• Always load the media print-side down such that the front edge of the media
is aligned with the front edge of the tray and the right edge of the media is
aligned with the right edge of the tray.
• Push the width and the length adjusters until they fit snugly against the left
edge of the paper stack (width adjuster) and front edge of the paper stack
(length adjuster).
• Load pre-printed forms and letterheads such that the top edge is fed into the
printer first.
• Load only one type of media at a time into the input tray to prevent jams and
unexpected behavior of the all-in-one.
• Always remove the existing media before loading new media.
Loading Tray 1 or Tray 2 :
1. Pull the tray out of the all-in-one.
2. If loading Tray 1, raise and remove the output tray cover.
3. To load paper that is 279 mm and 356 mm long (11 inches to 14 inches
long), slide the latch on the tray, as indicated in the illustration above, to
the right, and lower the front of the tray.
4. Place the media in the tray with the print-side. Push the width and the
length adjusters until they fit snugly against the left edge of the paper stack
(width adjuster) and front edge of the paper stack (length adjuster).
5. If loading Tray 1, replace and close the output tray.
6. Slide the tray into the all-in-one.
7. Pull out the extension on the output tray.
8. Always select the appropriate media type and size in the application or
printer driver when using the all-in-one.
Selecting the Tray
When using the HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one, the user has the option to select
a tray. If the user does not select the tray, the all-in-one automatically selects one.
By default, the all-in-one uses Tray 2 first.
The all-in-one draws media from tray 1 when no specific tray is selected. Other
conditions under which the all-in-one draws media from tray 1 are:
• Tray 2 is not installed.
• Tray 2 does not have media loaded.
• The media type or size for the job is not supported by tray 2.
• The printer is unable to pick paper from tray 2.
To select a tray from the control panel, follow these steps:
1. On the control panel, press TRAY/DOC.TYPE .
2. Press the (up) and (down) buttons to move to the TRAY option, and then
press the (Select) button.
3. Press the -/ + buttons to select the tray, and then press the (Select) button.
When selecting a tray from the printer driver on the computer, the settings are
available in the 'Source is' or 'Paper Source' drop-down menu in Windows printer
drivers, and in the 'All pages from' pop-up menu in the Mac OS printer driver.

Control Panel and Error Messages
Following are the messages that can appear on the control panel :
Status Messages
Status messages reflect the current state of the HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one.
They inform the user about the current operation that the all-in-one performs and
do not require any action to be removed. They change as the state of the all-inone changes. Whenever the all-in-one is ready, not busy, or has no pending
warning messages, the status message displayed on the control panel is READY .
Warning Messages
Warning messages display information about events that require a user's
attention. An example of a warning message is CYAN INK LOW. Warning messages
do not stop the all-in-one operation and remain displayed until the user resolves
the condition.
Error Messages
Error messages convey that some action, such as adding media or clearing a
media jam needs to be performed. A blinking red Attention light usually
accompanies these messages. To continue with the operation, the user needs to
take the appropriate action to rectify the fault. If the error message shows an error
code, press (POWER) to turn off the all-in-one, and then turn it on again. This solves
the problem in most situations. However, if the error message persists, the all-inone might need service. Write down the error code, and then go to HP Instant
Support to learn more about the possible causes for the message.
Critical Error Messages
Critical error messages often indicate device failure. Some of these messages can
be addressed by pressing the (POWER ) to turn off the all-in-one, and then turning it
on again. However, if the error message persists, it indicates that the all-in-one
requires servicing.

Loading an Original in the Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
The all-in-one has an ADF with a maximum capacity of 50 originals. To load an
original in the ADF, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that no originals are placed on the flatbed scanner glass.
2. Place all originals in the ADF input tray with the print-side up and with the
first page to be scanned/copied/faxed on top of the stack.
3. Adjust the paper-width guides to fit the size of the originals.
Loading an Original on the Scanner Glass
An original can also be copied/scanned by placing it on the scanner glass. To
load an original on the scanner glass, follow these steps:
1. Ensure that no originals are placed on the flatbed scanner glass.
2. Lift the flatbed scanner lid.
3. Place the original facedown on the scanner glass in the bottom-right
corner, with the sides of the original touching the right and bottom edges.
It is important to place the original in the lower-right corner. Otherwise, part of the
original might be clipped in the resulting scan.
Note
Some all-in-one options will not work correctly if the scanner glass and lid backing
are not clean.
Note
When copying from a transparency, place a blank sheet of paper between the
transparency and the flatbed scanner lid.
To prevent damaging the all-in-one, do not allow the scanner lid to fall on the
Caution scanner surface. Always keep the lid closed when the all-in-one is not in use.
Loading Media into Trays 1 and 2
To load Tray 1 or Tray 2, follow these steps:
1. Pull the tray out of the all-in-one.
2. To load the paper in Tray 1, raise and remove the output tray.

3. To load paper between 11 inches (279 mm) and 14 inches (356 mm) long,
move the latch on the tray to the right and lower the front of the tray.
(There is no need to lower the front of the tray for letter-size or A4-size
paper.)
4. Place the media with the print side down in the tray and slide the media
width and length guides to the edges of the media.
5. When loading Tray 1, reattach and close the output tray.
6. Slide the tray into the all-in-one.
7. Pull out the extension on the output tray.
8. Select the appropriate media type option in the application or printer
driver.
Do not raise the front of the tray if legal-size media is loaded, or damage to the
Caution media or all-in-one can result.
The all-in-one speed specification is based on tray 1. When tray 2 is installed, it
becomes the default tray (unless otherwise specified by the user). As a result, any
job sent to the all-in-one with tray 2 selected or as autoselect, the job will print
slower as compared to the quoted speed specifications. This is because tray 2 has
a longer paper path and the printing is, therefore, slower than tray 1.
Manual Duplexing
Users can also perform manual duplexing with the all-in-one. From the software
program, print one side of the document. Turn the paper over in the tray and then
repeat the print job, this time printing the second side.

Printing on Special Media
The four types of special media on which the HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one can
print are:
• Cards and Envelopes
• Transparencies
• Photo paper
• Custom size
Using Cards or Envelopes
To use cards or envelopes, follow these steps:
1. Remove Tray 1 from the printer.
2. Remove the output tray and then remove all media from Tray 1.
3. Insert the cards or envelopes into the tray (envelopes should be loaded
with the flaps facing up and to the right).
4. Slide the media width and length guides to the edges of the cards or
envelopes.
5. Replace the output tray and insert Tray 1 into the printer.
6. Start the job from the computer, after selecting the correct media size and
type.
Using Transparencies
To use transparencies, follow these steps:
1. Remove Tray 1 from the printer.
2. Remove the output tray and then remove all media from Tray 1.
3. Insert the transparencies into the tray, with the rough side down and the
adhesive strip pointing forward.
4. Slide the media width and length guides to the edges of the
transparencies.
5. Replace the output tray and insert Tray 1 into the printer.
Use and Maintain
hp confidential
197
6. Start the job from the computer, after selecting the correct media size and
type.
7. Remove each transparency as it prints and set it aside to dry. Allowing wet
media to stack up might cause smearing.
Using Photo Paper
Photographs taken using a digital camera can be printed using the all-in-one. The
printing can be done either directly from the memory card or from a software
program, such as the HP Photo and Imaging software. Use Best print quality to
print photographs. However, this takes longer to print and requires more memory.
The all-in-one can produce 4,800 by 1,200 optimized dpi resolution when using the
PCL 6 driver for Windows 98/XP/ME/2000 operating systems. In addition, all-in-one
supports the PS driver for Windows 2000/XP, Mac 9.2.x, and Mac (10.1 and later)
operating systems.
To print digital photographs from a program:
1. Load the appropriate paper in Tray 1.
2. Start the job from the computer after selecting appropriate print-quality
setting, media size, and media type.
3. Remove each sheet of media as it prints and set it aside to dry. Allowing
wet media to stack up might cause smearing.
Using Custom-size Media
When printing on custom-size media, adjust the length and width guides in the
tray, and, if necessary, extend the tray size to accommodate larger media.
Use Tray 1 when printing on paper that is 3 to 8.5 inches wide and 5 to 14 inches
long (76.2 to 216 mm wide and 127 to 356 mm long). Customize the media size
before printing the document if the application supports custom-size media. If the
application does not support custom-size media, set the size in the printer driver,
create the document, and print it. Reformatting might be needed on existing
documents to print them correctly on custom paper sizes.
To use custom-size media:
1. Remove Tray 1 from the printer.
2. Remove the output tray and then remove all media from Tray 1.
3. Insert the custom-size media into the tray.
4. Slide the media width and length guides to the edges of the media.
5. Replace the output tray and insert Tray 1 into the printer.
6. Start the job from the computer after selecting appropriate media size and
type.

The 4X6 photocard is not supported from the driver. Therefore, use either the index

firmware upgrade procedures
Firmware reflashing is required to upgrade firmware. The various methods for
firmware reflashing are:
1. Firmware Download Utility (FDU)
2. MS-DOS prompt
3. Memory card
4. FTP
5. WJCS
The HP Firmware Download Utility (FDU) detects and displays all locally
enumerated printer ports when launched. This provides an initial list of ports.
The HP FDU also displays the printer, which is attached to the port in its Printer List.
The Printer List displays the following:
• Printer Model - For available printers, which are attached to the corresponding
port.
• Hardware Address - Displays the Hardware (Mac) Address of the network
printer. This is only available after Network Printer Discovery.
• Port - Displays the systems ports available for the HP FDU.
• IP Address - Displays the IP Address of the network printer. This is only available
after Network Printer Discovery. User-defined IP Address can also be
displayed using the Add Network Printer.
• Base Firmware Version - Displays the base Firmware Version of the network
printer. This is only available after Network Printer Firmware Query.
Note
When the all-in-one is already directly installed, DOS flashing does not work. In such
cases, the FDU can be used for flashing by pointing to the Dot 4 port.
Add Network Printer
This is one of the HP FDU features used to insert custom (user-defined) network
printer to its Printer List. This allows system administrators to easily insert a network
printer without having to perform Network Printer Discovery over the network.

After user selects Download , the personality portion of the printer firmware
upgrade file will be downloaded to the printer.
It then goes into a printer-monitoring stage where it waits (5-6 minutes) for the
printer to be ready for the next printer firmware upgrade (base portion) to be
downloaded to the printer.
During this period, both the Download and Exit buttons will be disabled to prevent
user from terminating the utility to ensure a complete and correct printer firmware
upgrade process.
The entire printer firmware upgrade process will complete after the base portion of
the printer firmware upgrade file will be downloaded into the printer.

hp confidential
Use and Maintain
The Network Printer Discovery of HP Firmware Download Utility scans, detects, and
resolves all available HP printers in the TCP/IP network environment.
Network Printer Discovery will provide the following information about the
network printer:
• Printer model
• Printer hardware address
• Printer IP address
Due to the nature of the Network Printer Discovery, this process may take time
before completion. The tested file duration is approximately 2-3 minutes. However,
this discovery process is highly dependent on the current network conditions.
MS-DOS prompt
FDU is used to download the latest firmware to enhance the functionality of the
MFP. To upgrade the firmware using the MS-DOS prompt follow these steps:
Power ON the all-in-one, and wait for the all-in-one to initialize. Enter the PIN, if
necessary. On the MSDOS prompt, type copy /b firmware file name.fmw port
name: , where firmware file name is the name of the firmware upgrade file, and
port name is the port name through which the printer is connected.
Press ENTER to start the firmware upgrading process. The user can check these
internal processes on the control-panel display. After the firmware is upgraded, the
all-in-one is turned OFF automatically.
Turn ON the all-in-one.
The Language option appears on the control-panel display. The option selected by
default is ENGLISH . To change the option to some other language, click the (
Select ) button and use + or - buttons to set the language option. Follow similar
steps to change the Country/Region option on the control-panel display.
The old firmware file is upgraded by the latest version. The user can check the
latest version of the firmware on the lower-right corner of the control-panel
display.
Note
M S-DOS prompt allows firmware reflashing using direct connect, and network
connect. The Web JetAdmin is used to upgrade the firmware using network
connect.
Memory card
To upgrade firmware using Memory Card:
1. Create a directory named HP in the root directory/folder of the memory
card.
2. Rename the flash file to autoprn.pcl and copy it to the HP directory.
3. Insert the memory card. The all-in-one automatically upgrades the
firmware.
4. When the all-in-one auto reboots, pull out the memory card.

Following are the procedures to keep the all-in-one in the working condition:
Cleaning the Scanner Glass
Scanner glass over a period of time gets dirty from fingerprints, smudges, and hair.
This can slow down the scanning performance and affect the copy speed as well
as accuracy of special features such as fitting copies to a certain page size.
To clean the scanner glass:
1. Turn off the all-in-one.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical socket.
3. Open the flatbed scanner lid.
4. Clean the scanner glass with a soft cloth or sponge that has been
moistened with nonabrasive glass cleaner.
5. Dry the scanner glass with a chamois or cellulose sponge to prevent
spotting.
The ADF scan window should be cleaned in a similar manner.
6. Close the flatbed scanner lid; plug in the power cord, and turn the all-in
one on.
Do not use abrasives, acetone, benzene, ethyl alcohol, or carbon tetrachloride on
Caution the scanner glass; these can damage the all-in-one. Do not place liquids directly on
the scanner glass. They might seep under the scanner glass and damage the all-inone.
Cleaning the ADF Lid Backing
The white document lid backing located underneath the flatbed scanner lid can
get spoilt with small debris that get accumulated.
To clean the ADF lid backing:
1. Turn off the all-in-one.
2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical socket.
3. Lift the ADF.
4. Clean the white document lid backing with a soft cloth or sponge that
has been moistened with a mild soap and warm water. Wash the backing
gently to loosen debris; do not scrub the backing.
5. Dry the backing with a chamois or soft cloth.
Cleaning the Exterior
Use a soft, damp, lint-free cloth to wipe dust, smudges, and stains off the exterior
surface of the case. The exterior of the all-in-one does not require cleaning. To
avoid damages, fluids should be kept away from the interior of the all-in-one as
well as from the control panel.

The software features of the printer are:
1. Paper Type: This feature allows the user to specify the type of paper to be
used for printing, such as plain paper or transparencies.
2. Print Quality : The options for print quality are: Best, Normal, and Fast. Best
prints the best quality possible. Normal is the recommended mode for
everyday printing. Fast uses less ink, but the quality is not as high as normal.
3. Print in Grayscale: To activate grayscale printing, change the Print Color
as Grey setting. This prints documents in black and white (monochrome,
greyscale). Greyscale means shades of gray, starting with white and ending
with black. When a color document is printed in greyscale, colors are
converted to their greyscale equivalents. This means that different colors
are represented as different shades of gray.
4. Pages Per Sheet: The Pages per Sheet feature, also known as layout or Nup, specifies the number of pages to print on a single sheet of paper. The
multiple pages appear decreased in size and arranged based on the
number of pages printed on the sheet. The Pages per Sheet feature does
not work effectively with all page setup options. Combining page setup
options while using the Pages per Sheet feature might produce
unexpected print results.
5. Watermark Printing: The Watermark Printing feature allows specifying that
text be placed underneath (in the background) of an existing document.

scanning using OCR software
scanning using OCR software
Readiris is Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software that is used to import
scanned text into preferred word-processing program for editing. This allows user
to edit faxes, letters, newspaper clippings, and many other documents.
For direct connections, the all-in-one lets user specify the word-processing program
that user wants to use for editing. If the word-processing icon is not present or
active, either user does not have word-processing software installed computer, or
the scanner software did not recognize the program during the installation.
The OCR software does not support scanning colored text. Colored text is always
converted to grayscale text before being sent to OCR. Thus, all text in the final
document is in grayscale, regardless of the original color.
Using OCR software for Macintosh
The Readiris software is included in the installation for Macintosh computers. The
software can be used to edit the scan text and figures. The Readiris software
imports the scanned document and converts it to text, RTF, HTML, or PDF as the
output format. The text format consists of only text part, irrespective of the
presence of graphics in the scanned document. The RFT format consists of both
the text and the graphics. Both HTML and PDF format consists of both text and
graphics.
There are two procedures to edit a scanned document through Readiris:
• Manual procedure
• Automatic procedure
Manual procedure
Readiris also provides an option for the user to edit the scanned document text, or
picture according to the requirements. User can enable the text zone drawing

contention management
contention management
The HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one can process different jobs, such as printing,
faxing, copying, and scanning at the same time. For example, it can process a
copy job while scanning an original for a fax job. These jobs can be performed
remotely using a computer connected to the all-in-one or using the control panel
of the all-in-one. To handle any contention that may arise due to multiple job
instructions, the all-in-one has "job managers" that release a resource as soon as it
is no longer needed so that the next job can start. The various controlled resources
that are required for job execution and contention management are:
• Printer
• Scanner
• "Digital-Send" network connection
• Fax phone line
• Photocard writing
Jobs that are started using the control panel (Walk-up usage) take priority over
jobs started using a computer on the network. However, a currently printing job
must finish before any new printing job can begin. Salient points about "Walk-up"
usage:
• A walk-up user is considered present when the control panel is touched, or
when documents are placed on the ADF.
• Walk-up usage expires after a timeout period, when
• the control panel is no longer in use.
• all walk-up initiated jobs are completed.
• no errors resulting from walk-up usage are displayed.
• A walk-up user can "logout" by holding the "Reset" button for 2 seconds.
• When walk-up user is present, the user name is displayed on the IDLE screen as
READY (ADMIN). If users are not configured, an asterisk (READY*) indicates
walk-up presence.
Control of the all-in-one resources for contention management
Printer:
• Remote print jobs are blocked when a walk-up user is using the all-in-one.
However, a remote print job that has already started will continue till
completion.
• Remote print jobs begin when walk-up user expires, or "logs out".
Scanner:
• Remote TWAIN scan has the same priority as a walk-up user. The all-in-one does
not distinguish between a walk-up user and a remote scan and executes
scan jobs on a "first-come first-served" basis.
• Scan-ahead - The all-in-one processes a walk-up scan job simultaneously with
printing/copying or sending to the scan destination. After all the pages are
scanned, the scanner is available for the next (different) walk-up job even
though the current job has not fully completed.
• Any new jobs requiring the scanner (ADF or Glass) are blocked when the
scanner is in use.
Copy:
268
hp confidential
Use and Maintain
• Scan-ahead for all ADF jobs - ADF copy jobs can be started even when the
printer is busy because compression and decompression are handled by
separate CPUs and take place.
• Glass jobs do not "scan-ahead" because images are not compressed
sim ultaneously. Therefore, both scanner and printer must be available when
the job starts.
Digital Send:
• Only one digital send connection remains active at any given time.
Fax:
• Default fax send method is "Non real-time". Pages are first scanned to memory
and then transmitted in the background. Up to 10 outgoing fax jobs can be
queued.
• Up to 4MB of faxes can be received and stored in non-volatile memory while
the printer is busy. When memory is full, incoming calls are not answered.
• An incoming fax is completely received into memory before printing starts.
• If "Fax archive" is enabled (ADMIN menu), received faxes are transmitted via
digital send only after walk-up digital send jobs have completed.
• Color fax send jobs are always performed "real-time", rather than queued in
memory. This is because negotiation with the destination fax machine must
first be done to determine if color fax is available.
• Color fax printing requires portions of the scanner hardware, and blocks other
scan jobs from starting.
• Fax printing is treated as a walk-up job, rather than a remote print job.
Photo Card:
• Photo cards can be accessed via USB/Centronics ports, if the MSDC driver is
installed.
• When a walk-up photo print or photo digital-send job starts, MSDC is set to
read-only. This prevents the remote computer from modifying photos on the
card as they are being processed.
• When MSDC is writing to the photo card, walk-up photo jobs cannot start.
When MSDC write completes, the photo card is once again scanned to
count the number of photos.
• The OS or software installed on the remote computer may periodically write to
the photo card. This occasionally prevents a photo job from starting even
though it appears as though no job is in progress.

If tracking is enabled, Toolbox will have to be running all the time. This is
due to the fact that Toolbox has to download the job information from allin-one at the end of every job. If user closes Toolbox when tracking is
enabled or when the user shutdown the PC, a dialog box will pop up to
inform user that doing so will cause the loss of job information. The
mechanism for uploading job information is through PML objects.
Job information uploaded will be stored in the file specified by user. The
expected life cycle of all-in-one is 120,000 pages and the estimated size for
one job information is 250 bytes. Hence, the estimated maximum

cleaning and maintaining printheads
Follow these guidelines before changing a printhead:
• Replace the printheads when the following message appears on the control
panel display
• Replace [color] Printhead
• Incompatible [color] Printhead
Cleaning the Printheads
The printheads for the all-in-one have microscopic nozzles. The all-in-one is
designed to prevent nozzles from drying out when the all-in-one is idle and when it
is turned off.
Clean the printheads for the following reasons:
1. When the printhead nozzles become clogged. Nozzles can become
clogged when exposed to the air for more than a few minutes. A
printhead that is not used for long periods of time can also clog, resulting
in a noticeable decrease in print quality. The user will notice white or light
colored lines across the printed page (along the width of the page).
2. When lines or dots are missing from printed text or graphics.
Cleaning the printheads takes several minutes. When the process is complete, the
all-in-one prints two pages with cleaning patterns.
Note
Clean the printhea ds only when necessary. Cleaning the printheads when defects
do not occur in printed text or graphics wastes ink and shortens the life of the
printheads.
To clean the printheads:
1. On the control panel, press MENU.
2. Press the (up) or (down) button to move to MAINTENANCE, and then press
the (select) button.
3. Press the (up) or (down) button to move to Clean printheads, and then
press the (select) button.
4. Press the (up) or (down) button to move to Exit, and then press the (select)
button.
Cleaning the Printhead Contacts
If lines or dots are still missing from printed text or graphics after cleaning the
printheads, the printhead contacts might be dirty.
Clean printheads contacts only after cleaning the printheads. Printhead contacts
Caution contain sensitive electronic components that can be damaged easily.
To clean printheads contacts:
1. Turn the all-in-one on.
2. Open the print-carriage access door by lifting the door handle up.

occurred while acquiring the image"
If the image is acquired from another device, such
as a digital camera or another scanner, ensure
that the device is TWAIN-compliant. Devices that
are not TWAIN-compliant do not work with the allin-one software.
Check if the USB Device Cable (A-B) or IEEE 1284-Bcompliant parallel cable is connected to the
correct port on the back of the computer.
Check if the computer has EPP-compliant (bidirectional) or ECP-compliant parallel port. Use of
an ECP parallel port is strongly recommended.

• If the jammed media is not located by removing tray 2 from the all-inone, turn off the all-in-one and then remove the power cord.
• Lift the all-in-one off tray 2.
• Remove the jammed media from the bottom of the all-in-one or from
tray 2.
• Reposition the all-in-one on top of tray 2.
7. Open the print carriage access door and check for the media inside the
all-in-one in the print zone. If there is paper inside the all-in-one, use the
steps listed in this step, else, go to step 7.

• While lifting the print carriage access door, the carriage should return
to its position on the right side of the printer. Turn the all-in-one off if
the carriage does not return to the right side of the all-in-one.
• Ensure that the AIO is off and the power cord disconnected.
• Free any wrinkled media and pull the sheet out from the top of the allin-one.
8. After clearing the jam, close all covers and turn on the all-in-one.
To prevent a paper jam, follow these guidelines:
1. Ensure that the printhead latch is properly engaged, and nothing is
blocking the paper path.
2. Avoid overloading the trays. Tray 1 can hold up to 150 sheets of papers at
a time, whereas tray 2 can hold up to 250 sheets or 500 sheets of media. Be
sure the media does not exceed the maximum stack height as indicated
on the labels in each tray.
3. Load media properly.
4. Do not use damaged, curled, or wrinkled media. In addition, avoid using
media with cutouts or perforations or media that is heavily textured or
embossed.
5. Avoid media that is too thin, has a slick texture, or "stretches" easily. Such
media does not feed properly through the all-in-one.
6. During the scanning and the printing operations avoid loading the media
in to the all-in-one.
Clearing Media Jams in the ADF
1. If the page is sticking out of the area, gently try to remove it without
tearing the page.
2. Remove the ADF input tray and open the ADF cover.
3. Remove the jam cleanout part. Using both hands lift up the two handles
until the part unsnaps. Rotate and lift out the cleanout and set it aside.
4. Gently try to remove the page.
5. Open the ADF and gently loosen the media with both hands.
6. When the media is free gently pull it out.
7. Close the ADF.
8. Lower the green lever.
9. Reinstall the jam cleanout part.
10. Close the ADF and replace the ADF input tray.

Print Process
Printer Control language (PCL) is a popular printer language. It is a set of
commands that defines the formatting of the printed document. On powering
up, the all-in-one will initialize. The process evaluates the all-in-one's "readiness to
print". It consists of:
• Carriage Movement Checks - unlock and lock
• Pen Check - uncap, spit, wipe, and cap
• Firmware Check
On launching a print job from the computer application, the all-in-one driver
generates a PCL language print file, which is sent to the all-in-one. This PCL
language print file includes description of:
• The Font styles
• Size and type of graphics
• Graphic placement
• Color treatment
• Print resolution or number of dots per inch
The language file also contains information about how to place the pixels or dots
of the document on a page.
The all-in-one interprets the PCL print file commands and generates internal print
data. This internal print data is a rectangular array of pixels and is called a raster
Support
hp confidential
365
image . This raster image may be further processed to improve the quality of the
printed image.
Finally, the printing system breaks up the raster image in small blocks of data,
which is relayed to the print engine. The print engine translates this block of data
into actual firing pulse, which fires the pen at the right speed and location to
create the desired print image.
How the All-In-One Translates Information
The all-in-one translates information using the following steps:
• Based on the raster image generated, the pens fire a pattern of ink droplets on
the paper. The microprocessor in the printer coordinates the movement of
the paper, the pens, and firing of the nozzle to create the desired print
image.
• The paper feed system moves the paper through the all-in-one, allowing the
pens to cover the entire length of the paper while the carriage drive
mechanism moves the pens across the width of the paper.
• The rollers on Drive Shaft/Pivot Assembly pick up each paper from the Input
tray and move it past the printheads.
• As the printheads traverse the paper, ink droplets from the nozzles are fired on
to the surface of the paper. The nozzle height above the paper is
accurately controlled to ensure that the ink droplets fall onto the exact
location on the paper. This distance is called the pen-to-paper spacing
(PPS). The speed and position of the pens are also carefully controlled to
ensure accurate placement of the ink droplets.
• After completing a print job, the printheads, which contain the print nozzles,
are serviced by the service station. Here the print nozzles are fired to clear it
of any ink residue and wiped. The pens are finally capped to prevent the ink
in the nozzles from drying out. The printheads also get serviced as and when
needed during a print job.

Scan Process
The scan process can be initiated in one of the following ways:
1. From a computer connected directly to the all-in-one or via the network
(using CUE or TWAIN)
2. Directly from the all-in-one
Components Involved in the Scanning Process
TWAIN Application (Third Party Component)
The HP Officejet 9100 series all-in-one is TWAIN-complaint and works with
programs that support TWAIN-compliant scanning devices. A TWAINcompliant program, such as MS Office, Adobe Photoshop allows scanning
an image directly into the program from the scanning device. Therefore,
users can start the scanning process from a TWAIN -compliant program on
their computers.
CUE Software
This component of the all-in-one provides the front-end for HP Director
based scan. Users can start the scanning process using the CUE software.
The CUE software and the TWAIN program are the two ways of initiating a
scan job from a computer connected directly or via network to the all-inone.
Support
hp confidential
367
Button Manager
This component allows for the user to start the scanning process from the
all-in-one. After receiving the user's actions for scanning, the rest of the
scanning operations are initiated.
Preview Application
Once the scan process is initiated from either Button Manager or
CUE/TWAIN Application, the Preview application comes into play. The
Preview application allows the user to preview the document and specify
the type of image to be scanned. The application then calls the TWAIN
driver and instructs the driver on the type of image the user has selected to
scan.
TWAIN Driver
The TWAIN driver interacts with the Image Processing component as well as
the Device Configuration Component.
Image Processing
This component interacts with the Preview Application and the TWAIN
Driver to enable the all-in-one to create the image as per the user
requirements.
Device Configuration
This component interfaces with the all-in-one in to retrieve information
from it on the capabilities to carry out the scan job as specified by the user.
The Scan Process Flow
Power On -> Photo Response Non-Uniformity (PRNU) Correction
On turning the all-in-one one, the all-in-one moves the scan carriage,
checks the system, beams light, and checks against the calibration marks.
These are done for the following tests:
• Position Test - enables the all-in-one to identify where to scan from
(position of the original). This test is also known as homing
calibration.
• Magnification Test - enables the all-in-one to ensure uniformity of pixels.
• Calibration Test - enables the all-in-one to identify the black and white
on every pixel in the CCD. This test is also known as scanner color
calibration.
ADF Initialization
The ADF initialization process takes approximately 10 seconds of time. The
sequence of steps during ADF initialization is:
1. Firstly, the Pick Roller rises up. Prior to ADF initialization, the Pick
Roller remains locked in a lower position to avoid occurrence of
any damage to the all-in-one.
2. Now, the all-in-one is in the Ready State and is ready to process
scan jobs from the flat bed scanner glass as well as the ADF, as the
case may be. The sensor in the ADF checks for originals in it. If there
is no original in the ADF, then the all-in-one scans the original from
the Flat Bed.

Support
The next step is to capture the image from the original. The all-inone captures each line row-by-row by moving the original. In case
of two-sided scanning, the user needs to flip the original placed on
the flat bed to scan the other side. The ADF, on the other hand, flips
the paper automatically to perform back-to-back scanning.

Copy Process
The copy feature can be used from any of the following:
1. ADF
2. Flat Bed Scanner Glass
The Copy Process Flow
After turning on the all-in-one and initiating a copy job, the process flow that
follows is:
• The all-in-one moves the scan carriage, checks the system, beams light, and
checks against the calibration marks to perform position, magnification,
and calibration tests. The ADF initializes and the all-in-one is in a Ready state
and ready to process scan jobs. Next, the image is captured row-by-row
from the original.
• Based on the raster image generated, the pens fire a pattern of ink droplets on
the paper. The microprocessor in the all-in-one coordinates the movement
of the paper, the pens, and firing of the nozzle to create the desired image.
• The paper feed system moves the paper through the all-in-one, allowing the

Fax Process
The fax process can be initiated in one of the fo llowing ways:
1. Send Fax (from the device).
2. Print to Fax, which involves sending faxes from third party TWAIN
applications.
The Fax Process Flow
The fax process is similar to the scan process. As a result, the internal process flow is
also similar for both the operations. After turning on the all-in-one and initiating a
fax job, the process flow that follows is:
• The Fax module, a software component of the system, uses the TWAIN driver
and initiates the scanning of the document. The module renders the
document, sends instructions to the device, and assembles the scanned
image into a fax. It also sends the fax settings necessary for the fax protocol.

writing systems
writing systems
Steps involved in the writing process are:
• Input of media from the tray
The paper feed system takes input of paper from the tray. The paper feed
system moves the paper through the printer, allowing the pens to cover
the entire length of the paper while the carriage drive mechanism moves
the pens across the width of the paper. The rollers on Pick Roller Assembly
pick up each paper from the Input tray and transfer each paper to the
Drive Roller. The Drive Roller in turn controls the paper feeding and moves
the paper past the print heads.
• Releasing ink on media
As the print heads traverse the paper, ink is fired on the paper surface. The
speed of the carriage movement and placement of the pens are also
carefully controlled to ensure accurate placement of the ink on the page.
• Drying of Ink
The ink present on the paper is given time to dry depending on the type of
printing done. The drying time increases as the amount of color on the
page increases.
• Servicing the printheads
After completing a print job, the pens are serviced by the rubber wipers in
the service station. The pens are wiped and capped to prevent the ink in
the nozzles from drying out.
Double Sided Printing Using the Auto-Duplex Unit
The all-in-one provides a facility to print on both sides of media with the autoduplex unit (ADU). Make the selection from the software program or printer driver
to enable this feature. The only difference in this printing process is that media
takes the reverse paper path for the double sided printing. The all-in-one prints on
one side of the paper first and then pauses for the ink to dry. The all-in-one then
takes back the paper in the auto-duplex unit where it flips the sheet and sends it
for printing.
Note
374
When using the ADU, do not remove the paper from the printer until both sides are
printed.

Carriage System
carriage system
Physical Layout of the Carriage System
• Carriage Motor: The carriage motor is located in the left of the all-in-one and is
used for the movement of the carriage via the carriage belt.
• Encoder Strip: The encoder strip is located just below the top cover of the allin-one. The encoder strip has dark lines or bars marked on it. The lines/bars
are read from the strip such that the movement of the carriage can be
controlled.
• Carriage Assembly: The Carriage Assembly is positioned above the Service
Station when it is in its home position. The Carriage Assembly consists of the
Carriage Base and the Carriage PCA. The Carriage Base provides the frame
to hold the printhead. It holds the valves for the printheads to which the ink
supply tubes are attached.
• Carriage Belt: The carriage belt is connected to the Carriage Assembly and is
used to drive the assembly during printing.
Functioning of the Carriage System
• The carriage motor moves the carriage and the printheads horizontally in
order to create printed images on the media.
• The carriage belt loops around the Carriage Motor Pulley and the Idler System
Pulley . The carriage Motor turns the carriage Motor Pulley, which in turn,
moves the carriage belt.
• The carriage assembly is attached to the carriage belt, so that it moves
horizontally across the page when the carriage belt moves. Inside the
carriage are the printheads, which deliver ink to the page.
• The encoder strip is threaded through the carriage assembly. The Encoder Strip
is an encoded filmstrip that helps to provide information to the system to
determine the carriage position.
• The carriage PCA, which is a part of the carriage assembly, reads the encoder
strip and sends feedback on the carriage's position to the logic PCA.

Paper Path-Paper Feed Motor and Jam Detection
Paper path refers to the path that a media will take in the all-in-one. There can be
different media paths with different device combinations, using multiple input
trays and the auto-duplex unit. From the table below, it can be summarized that
the all-in-one has 2 different media paths, formed by 2 input trays combining with
the auto-duplex unit.

All supported media
The stages for the paper path are listed below:
• Input - This stage flips the media in the input tray and moves the media guide.
The paper motor feeds media into the printer, moves it horizontally while
text and images are printed on the page, and ejects the media from the
printer.
• Pulling paper into Printer - When a print command is given the motor is
activated, it picks up a piece of paper and pushes the paper against the
separation system, thus allowing only one sheet of paper to go through.
After the paper is inserted, the paper from the input tray reaches the
pressure plate. The pressure plate in turns pushes the paper against the
pinch roller, which is part of the separator system.
The pick system (separation and activation) provides:
• Optimum friction force between paper and roller.
• Pick speed.
• The paper is picked by the pick roller and driven through the paper path to
ensure that it is properly aligned for printing. The paper motor moves the
media into position for printing in the print zone.

381
Feeding Paper Through Printer
• The paper is fed through the print zone by a large set of rollers on the Drive
Shaft/Pivot Assembly, pinch roller, and the drive roller.
• The paper motor powers these components.
• The encoder disk on the Drive Shaft/Pivot Assembly helps to control linefeed
accuracy.
• The carriage moves out of its "home" position over the service station and
ramps up to speed; the speed of the carriage across the paper is
determined by the print mode selected for a particular print job.
• The pen starts printing from the first firing point.
• The disk encoder has dark lines or bars marked on it. Each line is equivalent to
four position counts. It helps to verify the rotational position of the feed
roller.
Ejecting Paper From Printer
The output system consists of three components:
• Kicker
• Output roller
• Output tray
After the paper comes out of the pinch roller and the drive roller, the paper is
passed to the output roller. This is the component from where the paper is ejected
and stacked into the output tray.
Double-Sided Printing Process
Double-sided printing can be done manually or automatically:
• Manual: After printing one side of the paper, turn the paper over in the tray
and then repeat the print job on the second side.
• Auto-duplex: Automatic duplexing (double-sided printing) is turned on in the
all-in-one by default. Make the appropriate selections from the software
program to enable double sided printing.
Automatic Document Feeder (ADF)
The ADF and the flatbed scanner are the features available in the all-in-one for
versatile scanning capabilities. The ADF can hold up to 50 sheets of paper, and the
flatbed scanner can be used for originals that cannot be fed through the ADF. If
originals are present both in the ADF and on the flatbed scanner glass, the ADF
takes priority.
The ADF transports the top side of a document for scanning by following the
paper path, as displayed in the figure below.

Paper Path for Scanning Top Side of a Document
The ADF transports both sides of a document for scanning by following the paper
path, as displayed in the figure below.
Jam Detection
Paper Path for Scanning Both Sides of a Document
A paper jam normally occurs in the paper path during the input, printing and the
ejection process. The paper jam occurs when the paper gets stuck during one of
these processes. The areas in the paper path where paper jams most likely occur
are the auto-duplex unit, the pick roller, and the pusher rail. A paper jam is
indicated with the following message on the LCD screen:
PAPER JAM, REMOVE REAR ACCESS PANEL/ AUTO-DUPLEX UNIT TO CLEAR PAPER.
PRESS RESUME TO CONTINUE
To clear a paper jam, follow these steps:
• Remove all media from the output tray.
• Check the auto-duplex unit/rear access panel.

1. If the jammed media is located inside the printer, grasp it with both
hands and remove in the outward direction.
2. If a jam is not there, push the latch on the top of the auto-duplex
unit and lower its cover. If the jam is inside, carefully remove it and
close the cover.
3. Reinsert the auto-duplex unit/rear access panel into the all-in-one.
4. If the jam in the auto-duplex unit/rear access panel cannot be
located, then go to the next step.
• Lift the output tray and check for a jam in tray 1.
1. If the media is jammed in tray1, then pull out tray1.
2. Pull out the paper.

firmware reflashing/upgrade
Firmware reflashing is required to upgrade firmware. Firmware reflashing/upgrade
is a continuous process and should not be interrupted until the flashing process is
complete. Firmware upgrade provides additional functionality and improved
performance and reliability. The various methods for firmware upgrade are:
Firmware Download Utility (FDU)
The FDU downloads the file from HP Support website or the HP Instant Support
(HPIS) and executes the file.
Following are the steps to upgrade firmware using the FDU:
• Download and store the latest firmware upgrade file from the HP website on
the computer.
• Browse to the location of the file and double-click it to start the FDU.
Firmware Reflashing in Mac OS:
Firmware Download Utility (FDU) is a standalone utility that downloads the
firmware reflash file to the all-in-one with or without the all-in-one software
installed on the user's machine. The FDU is a carbon application that runs both on
OS 9.x and OS X.
To download the firmware flash file to the device, the user has to select the
firmware file that has to be flashed onto the device and select the device that
needs to be flashed. The FDU facilitates flashing the same firmware to 'n' number
of devices of the same type connected locally or over the network. When the
application is launched, by default it will list only the devices connected locally. By
selecting the network option, the application searches for all devices present on
the local network with their IP and Mac address listed. By selecting the option to
enter the IP address, the application lists the device with the entered IP address
only. If the entered IP address is wrong, then an appropriate error message is
displayed by the application.
The Sequence of Execution of the FDU:
1. Launch the Firmware Download Utility.
2. Quit HP Communications if it is running.
3. List all the devices connected locally (by default) to the host machine. For
reflashing the device on the network, select the
Network
connection type.
There are three different modes through which a user can select a device
that needs to be reflashed:
• Local - Lists all the devices connected through USB to the Host
machine.
• Network - This Lists all the devices connected over the network through
TCP/IP.
• Enter IP Address - Displays a dialog box to enter the IP Address of the
required device connected over the local network.
4. Enter the full path of the firmware reflash file in the edit box or click the
Browse button to select the firmware re-flash file.
5. Choose the device that has to be flashed from the list of devices.
6. Click the Download button to download the firmware to the device.

modules provide the drawing and printing APIs for applications.
• Print Center and Printer browser modules - these modules handle client
interaction during the printing cycle.
• Print server, Print job manager, Converters, Printer, and I/O modules - these
modules constitute the printing system's server backends, which accepts
print jobs from local clients and renders them to the destination printer.
The nine modules work together to:
• Present all printing user-interface elements.
• Accept raw drawing commands from applications and spool the data to be

Goldstone Customization Utility
Goldstone customization utility is only available with unattended/attended mode
option. In other words, the utility only allows the administrator to create a silent
customized installer. The following are the advantages of using Goldstone
customization utility:
• Unattended installation : Goldstone provides the option of creating
unattended installer, which is a timesaving option for administrators
working in a corporate environment. The only difference between the
original package and the customized package are the language
dependent components. The customization utility extracts one of the
selected language components from the original installer. This
implementation is mainly due to the caching MSI database on the user
system after the first time installation. For instance, if the administrator only
chooses to have one driver personality and toolbox without other
accompanied components, the consequence of extracting these
components is that other components such as fonts or driver personalities
will never get installed on the user system for subsequent installations.
• Flexibility : Customization utility offers flexibility for changing the settings during
runtime. A few items such as port selection, printer naming, printer share
name, printer comment and location can be modified during runtime.
• Virtual ports: Goldstone Customization Utility is capable of creating Virtual
ports such as DOT4 and USB installation.
• Installation and MFP sharing : Goldstone can also be used to install client setup
through silent installer as well as setting printer sharing with vending drivers
installed.

I/O
The HP Officejet 9100 series uses DOT4 for Input/ Output (I/O). Dot4 is an IEEE
industry standard that supports multi-function peripherals within an operating
system. Microsoft Windows provides DOT4 drivers for XP and 2000 that creates
different port settings for each function of the multi-function peripherals. When the
HP Officejet 9100 all-in-one is installed the port tab indicates the DOT4 port, which
is the virtual port. However, the printer is physically connected to the parallel port.
Dot4 technique provides print, scan, fax, and Mass Storage Devices Class (MSDC)
driver over a single channel. DOT4 technique can be used over USB or Parallel
cable.
Note
MSDC is drive letter access to a device's photocard slot. So user goes to windows
explorer and copies files to the drive just like any other drive.
Note
Some other I/O techniques such as Device ID are used to query for ink level, error
status, and printer servicing.
The advantages of DOT4 are:
• Status updates and myPrintMileage support when printing
• Does not require a language monitor, and helps in remote installation

serial number
serial number
Serial number is a unique number given to a printer and is available on the
configuration page. This number is used to log service requests with the call center
for repair purposes. This number can be used to identify details, such as the country
where the printer was manufactured, its manufacturing date, and its version
number. For example, if the serial number of an hp Officejet 9100 series all-in-one is
CN387110GJ, then the following details can be derived:
Country: The first 2 letters refer to the country where the printer was
manufactured. Here, CN means China. The codes of some other countries where
the printer is manufactured are:
• SG - Singapore
• CN - China
• MY - Malaysia
Year of manufacture: The third letter refers to year of manufacture. It equals the
last numeral of the year. In this case, the year is 2003.
Month of manufacture: The fourth letter refers to the month of manufacture. The
numeral refers to the month of the year starting from January. In this case, the
month is August. The list of codes for the months is given below:
• January - 1
• February - 2
• March - 3 and so on till September
• September - 9
• October - A
• November - B
• December - C
Day of manufacture:The fifth letter refers to the day of manufacture (base 36;
includes 0-9 and A-Z). The numeral refers to the day of the month starting from 1. In
this case, it is the 7th of the month. The list of codes for the days is given below:
•1 -1
• 2 - 2 and so on till 9
•9 -9
• 10 - A
• 11 - B and so on till the end of the month
Version number:The sixth letter refers to the version number (base 30; 0-9, and A-Z
except A, E, I, O, U and L).
Production line:The seventh letter refers to the production line that builds the
printer.
Number of the device:The digits in the 8, 9 and 10th positions make up the
number of the printer. It will be reset to '001' at midnight (base 30; 0-9, and A-Z
except A, E, I, O, U and L).

born-on date
born -on date
Born-on date is used to provide an accurate warranty start date. When a
customer installs the printer driver for the first time, the system date of the
customer's machine is downloaded to the printer's NVRAM. This date is not
erasable in most cases. This makes the Born-on date as the electronic Proof of
Purchase.
Born-on date is available on the configuration page as Service ID. HP follows the
Service ID in the YYDDD format. YY is the actual year or the year since 1990. DDD is
the number of days since 1st January or number of days since 1st January while
assuming that each month is 30 days.
To calculate the Born-on date from the Service ID:
• The year will be the number obtained by adding 1990 to YY. For example, if YY
is 09, then the year will be 09 + 1990 = 1999.
• The month will be the number obtained by dividing DDD by 30. If there is a
remainder, add 1 to the result. For example, if DDD is 280, then month is: 280
divided by 30 = 9; add 1 to it (as there was a remainder: 10) to make it 10.
Hence, the month is October.
• The day is the remainder of the division of DDD by 30. If there is no remainder,
then the date is 30. For example, if DDD is 281, then the date is the
remainder or 11.
