Printer Software
HP JetSend Communications Technology
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 it is in the same office or
at a remote location. When you use the HP Fast InfraRed
Connect accessory, your printer can also receive information from any
JetSend-enabled infrared device. Examples of JetSend sending devices
include PCs 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.
Note HP JetSend is not supported for Traditional Chinese, Simplified Chinese,
Korean, and Japanese.
Simply use the custom installer on the software compact disc or visit the
JetSend web site (www.jetsend.hp.com) to download the JetSend software.
You will then be able 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.
