Personal and corporate dialup connections

Installing and configuring a modem

If you purchased an HP Jornada with a built-in 56K V.90 modem, it is already setup for easy communication. No installation is required.

The 56Kbps modem complies with V90 ITU 56K specifications and has a design capability of receiving data at up to 56Kbps from a compatible service provider, and transmitting data at up to 31.2Kbps. Public networks currently limit maximum download speeds to about 53Kbps. Actual speeds depend upon many factors and are often less than the maximum possible.

Note that the UK version of HP Jornada does not support certain dialing properties. The HP Jornada built-in modem (on models equipped with a built-in modem) does not detect a dial tone before dialing. By default, the Wait for dial tone before dialing box is checked. The modem will dial even if there is no dial tone. It also does not support the pulse dial option. The modem dials using tone dial only. By default, tone dialing is selected.

The HP Jornada supports a variety of available PC Card modems*. (Check www.hp.com/jornada for more information on compatible PC card modems.) Follow the manufacturer’s instructions included with the PC Card modem to install and configure it for use with your HP Jornada.

Getting an account with an Internet service provider

To access the Internet and e-mail, you will need to contact an ISP to set up a PPP account. SLIP accounts are offered by some ISPs instead of PPP accounts. Your HP Jornada supports the use of SLIP as well as PPP.

The HP 700 is a noteworthy addition to HP's lineup of enterprise-level printers, designed specifically to meet the demands of small to medium-sized businesses. With an emphasis on speed, efficiency, and high-quality printing, the HP 700 series has carved a niche for itself in the competitive printing market.

One of the standout features of the HP 700 is its impressive print speed, which can reach up to 40 pages per minute. This rapid output ensures that businesses can keep up with their demanding workloads without sacrificing quality. The printer also offers a fast first-page-out time, allowing users to access their prints more quickly, which is especially beneficial in busy office environments.

Connectivity is another important aspect of the HP 700 series. The printer supports multiple connectivity options, including USB, Ethernet, and Wi-Fi, allowing for versatile integration into existing office networks.

The HP 700 is equipped with advanced security features, such as secure boot and firmware integrity checking, ensuring that sensitive documents remain protected against unauthorized access. Additionally, it includes features like PIN printing, which provides an extra layer of security by requiring users to enter a PIN before their documents are released for printing.

In terms of sustainability, the HP 700 is designed with energy efficiency in mind. It employs HP’s EcoSmart Black Toner technology, which not only delivers exceptional print quality but also contributes to lower energy consumption and reduced environmental impact. The printer is also compatible with HP's Cartridge Recycling program, allowing businesses to responsibly dispose of used toner cartridges.

The print resolution of the HP 700 series is another strong selling point, offering up to 1200 x 1200 dpi. This high resolution ensures that text and images come out crisp and clear, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, from professional documents to vibrant marketing materials.

In summary, the HP 700 series combines high-speed printing, versatile connectivity, robust security features, and energy efficiency, all while delivering exceptional print quality.
