NOTE

NOTE

The HP Color LaserJet 4610n printer comes standard with an HP Jetdirect 175x external print server.

HP Jetdirect print server

An HP Jetdirect external print server can be installed with the printer. This external print server supports multiple network protocols and operating systems. HP Jetdirect print servers facilitate network management by allowing you to connect a printer directly to your network at any location. HP Jetdirect print servers also support the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP), which provides network managers with remote printer management and troubleshooting through HP Web Jetadmin software.

Installation of this external print server and network configuration should be performed by a network administrator. Configure the external print server through the HP Web Jetadmin software.

Refer to the HP Jetdirect print server documentation for information on which external devices are supported.

The HP Jetdirect external print server provides software solutions for:
