About cookies

The HP EWS places very small text files (cookies) on your hard drive when you are browsing. These files let the HP EWS recognize your computer the next time you visit. For example, if you have configured the HP EWS language, a cookie helps remember which language you have selected so that the next time you access the HP 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.

IMPORTANT: The cookies that the HP EWS stores on your computer are only used for saving settings on your computer or for sharing information between the printer and the computer. These cookies are not sent to any HP Websites.

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.

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

Starting where you left the application (especially useful when using setup wizards).

Remembering the HP EWS browser language setting.

Personalizing the HP EWS Home page.

For information about how to change your privacy and cookie settings and how to view or delete cookies, see the documentation available with your Web browser.
