Open the Toolbox

folder for your printer, and then select the icon with your printer s name.

HP Utility (Mac OS X)
HP Utility contains tools to configure print settings, calibrate the printer, order supplies online, and
find web site support information.
NOTE: The features available in HP Utility vary depending on the selected printer.
Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes only. When you
receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement cartridge available to
avoid possible printing delays. You do not need to replace cartridges until prompted to do so.
To open HP Utility
Double-click the HP Utility icon. This icon is located in the Hewlett-Packard folder in the
Applications folder at the top level of the hard disk.
Embedded web server
When the printer is connected to a network, you can use the printer's home page (embedded web
server or EWS) to view status information, change settings, and manage it from your computer.
NOTE: For a list of system requirements for the embedded web server, see Embedded web
server specifications.
To view or change some settings, you might need a password.
You can open and use the embedded web server without being connected to the Internet.
However, some features are not available.
