HP JetSend (CD-ROM - Windows 9x/NT 4.0 only)

HP JetSend is a new technology from Hewlett-Packard that allows devices to communicate with each other simply and directly. HP JetSend is built into your printer, allowing it to receive information from any JetSend-enabled sending device anywhere on your network, whether in the same office, or at a remote location. Your printer also has infrared capabilities, allowing it to receive information from any JetSend- enabled infrared device. Examples of JetSend sending devices include PC's or laptops running JetSend software, or scanners with JetSend built in. JetSend uses simple IP addressing between networked devices, and "Point and shoot" between infrared devices.

Visit the JetSend web site (www.jetsend.hp.com) for additional information on JetSend and JetSend software for the PC. JetSend allows you to exchange intra-company documents directly between PCs and between PCs and any JetSend-enabled printer, without the problems of incompatible software applications or versions. JetSend software will allow your colleagues to create documents on their PCs and send copies directly to this printer without any device-specific drivers or configuration difficulties.

You can visit the JetSend web site to learn which other devices are available to communicate easily and directly with your JetSend- enabled printer.

How the JetSend Communications Technology Works

Networked Devices

To use the JetSend capability between networked devices (1) print a configuration page to find your JetSend IP address and (2) give your address to anyone who wishes to send information to your printer via JetSend.

From a JetSend sending device, a person only needs to enter the IP address of the printer and press "send."

Infrared Devices

To use the JetSend infrared capability, simply (1) line up the infrared sensors between the sending and receiving devices, and (2) choose the "send" option on the sending device.

The devices, because they have JetSend in them, will automatically negotiate the best possible outcome.

HP JetSend Software is not currently available for the Macintosh.
