About cookies

The embedded Web server (EWS) places very small text files (cookies) on your hard drive when you are browsing. These files let the EWS recognize your computer the next time you visit. For example, if you have configured the EWS language, a cookie helps remember which language you have selected so that the next time you access the EWS, the pages are displayed in that language. Though some cookies are cleared at the end of each session (such as the cookie that stores the selected language), others (such as the cookie that stores customer-specific preferences) are stored on the computer until you clear them manually.

You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, or you can configure it to alert you every time a cookie is offered, which allows you to decide which cookies to accept or refuse. You can also use your browser to remove unwanted cookies.

NOTE: Depending on your printer, if you disable cookies, you also disable one or more of the following features:

The HP 6512, 6515, and 6510 series, designated B211a, represent an innovative line of multifunction printers designed to meet the diverse needs of home and small office users. These all-in-one inkjet printers offer a combination of printing, scanning, copying, and faxing capabilities while emphasizing user-friendliness and efficiency.

One of the standout features of the HP B211a series is its wireless connectivity. With built-in Wi-Fi, users can easily connect their devices, including smartphones, tablets, and laptops, enabling seamless printing from anywhere within the network range. The HP Smart App enhances this experience further by allowing remote management, print job monitoring, and access to cloud-based printing services.

The printers utilize HP’s innovative Thermal Inkjet technology, which ensures crisp text and vibrant images. The series supports a range of paper sizes and types, including plain paper, photo paper, and envelopes, making it versatile for various printing tasks. Print resolutions can go up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi, delivering professional-quality documents and photos.

Speed is another key characteristic of the B211a series. The print speeds vary depending on the model but generally range from 7 to 10 pages per minute for black and white documents and around 5 to 8 pages per minute for color. This efficiency, combined with automatic duplex printing available in some models, helps save time and reduce paper consumption.

Another notable feature is the 2.2-inch monochrome touchscreen display, which simplifies navigation and user interaction. Users can easily select functions, manage settings, and troubleshoot issues directly from the printer interface.

Moreover, the HP 6512, 6515, and 6510 series are compatible with HP's Instant Ink program, which allows users to subscribe and receive ink cartridges automatically based on their printing needs.
