HP LaserJet Professional M1130/M1210 MFP Series PDE

A Print Dialog extension file can specify one or more PDEs to load in the Print dialog box to provide HP printer specific features. A printing dialog extension (PDE) is a way to extend the Print dialog box in Mac OS X with custom printer features.

A PPD file and printing dialog extension (PDE) for a printer are bound to a printer queue when the queue is created.

HP USB EWS Gateway

For network connected printers, the EWS can be accessed directly by typing the network IP address or DNS name of the product into the Web browser. HP USB EWS Gateway software, which is automatically installed, allows a Web browser to access the product’s EWS if the product is connected using a USB cable. Click the Utility button when using a USB connection to access the EWS though the Web browser.

HP LaserJet Utility

Use the HP LaserJet Utility to configure, administer, and set up product features that are not available from the printer driver. You can use the HP LaserJet Utility with HP printers connected via USB, and ethernet.

Supported printer drivers for Macintosh

The HP installer provides Postscript Printer Description (PPD) files, Printer Dialog Extensions (PDEs), and the HP Printer Utility for use with Macintosh computers.

The PPDs, in combination with the Apple postscript printer drivers, provide access to device features. Use the Apple postscript printer driver that comes with the computer.

Priority for print settings for Macintosh

Changes to print settings are prioritized depending on where the changes are made:

NOTE: The names of commands and dialog boxes might vary depending on your software program.

Page Setup dialog box: Click Page Setup or a similar command on the File menu of the program you are working in to open this dialog box. Settings changed here might override settings changed anywhere else.

Print dialog box: Click Print, Print Setup, or a similar command on the File menu of the program you are working in to open this dialog box. Settings changed in the Print dialog box have a lower priority and do not override changes made in the Page Setup dialog box.

Default printer driver settings: The default printer driver settings determine the settings used in all print jobs, unless settings are changed in the Page Setup, Print, or Printer Properties dialog boxes.

Printer control-panel settings: Settings changed at the printer control panel have a lower priority than changes made anywhere else.
