13.0.6Power-On with Continuous Media

The firmware will remember what media type is loaded. If powered down with continuous media loaded, the firmware will power on with the top LED flashing (as described above) allowing the user to unload the continuous media if cutsheet media is desired for the next print job.

13.0.7Power-Off with Continuous Media

If the Power key is pressed while in the middle of a banner page, the media will first be advanced to the next top of form before turning the printer off. Any unprinted data will be lost.

13.0.8Printing Cutsheet with Z-Fold Media

Attempting to print cutsheet media while z-fold media is loaded and there exists a bidirectional I/O connection between the host and printer, will halt the printer in an error state. Power cycling will clear the error.

Without a bidirectional I/O connection, the printer will format and print the cutsheet job on the z-fold media.

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.
