Troubleshooting and configuration tools

The following tools are available for troubleshooting or configuring the printer. For more information about these tools, see the onscreen user's guide on the Starter CD.

Configuration page

Use the configuration page to view current printer settings, to help troubleshoot printer problems, and to verify installation of optional accessories, such as trays. The configuration page also contains a log of recent events. If the printer is connected to a network, an additional network configuration page prints; this page shows the network settings for the printer.

If you need to call HP, print the configuration page before calling.

To print a configuration page

Press the Configuration Page button once.

Embedded Web server (EWS)

When the printer is connected to a network, you can use the printer's EWS to view status information, change settings, and manage the printer at your computer.

To open the EWS

In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the IP address that has been assigned to the printer. For example, if the IP address is 123.123.123.123, type the following address into the Web browser: http://123.123.123.123.

The IP address for the printer is listed on the configuration page.

After you open the EWS, you can bookmark it so that you can return to it quickly in the future.

Setting up the printer for wireless communication

The printer is designed for 802.11g wireless networks and is compatible with 802.11b networks.

Note: For wireless communication to work successfully, the following settings must be identical on both the computer and the device.

Configuring basic wireless communication settings

In order to install the printer on a wireless network, you need to know the network's communication mode and its network name (SSID). Consult the configuration utility for your computer's network card or for your network's wireless access point (WAP).

Communication mode

There are two options for a network's communication mode.

● Infrastructure (recommended)

When the printer is set to the infrastructure mode, the printer communicates with other devices on the network, whether the devices are wired or wireless, through a WAP. WAPs commonly act as routers or gateways on small networks.

●Ad hoc (advanced users only)

When the printer is set to the ad hoc communication mode, the printer communicates directly with other wireless devices without the use of a WAP.

For instructions on installing the printer on an existing ad hoc network, visit HP's Web site at http://www.hp.com/support.

Network name (SSID)

A network name, or Service Set Identifier (SSID), identifies a particular wireless network. In order to operate on a network, a device must know the network's network name.

Configuring wireless network security settings

Types of wireless security

You can configure the printer to use the following security options:

Open System (no security)

The network does not require security for authorization or encryption. This is the printer's factory default setting. The printer will attempt to detect and automatically associate to an Open System wireless network.

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) provides security by encrypting data sent over radio waves from one wireless device to another wireless device.

Devices on a WEP-enabled network use WEP keys to encode data. If your network uses WEP, you must know the WEP key(s) it uses.

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) provides security by doing the following:

• Encrypting data sent over radio waves from one wireless device to another wireless device
  ●Controlling access to network resources through authentication protocols

WPA either requires the use of an authentication server (best suited for enterprise networks) or a pass phrase known to all devices on the network.

Configuring security options

You must use the printer's embedded Web server (EWS) to configure security settings if your network uses WPA or WEP or if you were unable to install the printer software. For more information about opening the EWS, see "Embedded Web server (EWS)" on page 21.

To configure security options

1 Connect a cross cable (included with the HP Business Inkjet 1200dtwn) to the printer and the computer.
2 Open the printer's Embedded Web Server (EWS).
3 Click the Networking tab, and then click Wireless (802.11) in the left pane.
4 On the Wireless Setup tab, click Start Wizard.
5 Follow the instructions on the screen.
6 Click Apply, and then close the EWS.

To add hardware addresses to a Wireless Access Point (WAP)

MAC filtering is a security feature in which a Wireless Access Point (WAP) is configured ith a list of MAC addresses (also called "hardware addresses") of devices that are allowed to gain access to the network through the WAP.

If the WAP does not have the hardware address of a device attempting to access the network, the WAP denies the device access to the network.

If the WAP filters MAC addresses, then the printer's MAC address must be added to the WAP's list of accepted MAC addresses.

1 Press the Configuration Page button to print a configuration page.
2 Open the WAP's configuration utility, and then add the printer's hardware address to the list of accepted MAC addresses.

Installing printer software and sharing the printer (Windows)

You can install the printer software using infrastructure mode (recommended) or ad hoc mode.

Infrastructure mode

1 Connect the printer to the computer using network cross-over cable included with the printer.

Ink cartridges 6 months

Printheads 1 year*

Printer peripheral hardware (see the following details) 1 year

*For more detailed warranty information, see http://www.hp.com/support/businessinkjet1200.

Extent of limited warranty

1 Hewlett-Packard warrants to the end-user customer that the HP products specified above will be free from defects in materials and workmanship for the duration specified above, which duration begins on the date of purchase by the customer.
2 For software products, HP's limited warranty applies only to a failure to execute programming instructions. HP does not warrant that the operation of any product will be uninterrupted or error free.
3 HP's limited warranty covers only those defects that arise as a result of normal use of the product, and does not cover any other problems, including those that arise as a result of:

a Improper maintenance or modification;
b Software, media, parts, or supplies not provided or supported by HP; or
c Operation outside the product's specifications;
d Unauthorized modification or misuse.

4 For HP products, the use of a non-HP ink cartridge or a refilled ink cartridge does not affect either the warranty to the customer or any HP support contract with the customer. However, if product failure or damage is attributable to the use of a non-HP or refilled ink cartridge, HP will charge its standard time and materials charges to service the printer for the particular failure or damage.

5 If HP receives, during the applicable warranty period, notice of a defect in any product which is covered by HP's warranty, HP shall either repair or replace the product, at HP's option.

6 If HP is unable to repair or replace, as applicable, a defective product which is covered by HP's warranty, HP shall, within a reasonable time after being notified of the defect, refund the purchase price for the product.

7 HP shall have no obligation to repair, replace, or refund until the customer returns the defective product to HP.

8 Any replacement product may be either new or like new, provided that it has functionality at least equal to that of the product being replaced.

9 HP products may contain remanufactured parts, components, or materials equivalent to new in performance.

10 HP's Limited Warranty Statement is valid in any country/region where the covered HP product is distributed by HP. Contracts for additional warranty services, such as on-site service, are available from any authorized HP service facility in countries/regions where the product is distributed by HP or by an authorized importer.

Limitations of warranty

TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, NEITHER HP NOR ITS THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS MAKES ANY OTHER WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Limitations of liability

1 To the extent allowed by local law, the remedies provided in this Warranty Statement are the customer's sole and exclusive remedies.
2 TO THE EXTENT ALLOWED BY LOCAL LAW, EXCEPT FOR THE OBLIGATIONS SPECIFICALLY SET FORTH IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, IN NO EVENT SHALL HP OR ITS THIRD PARTY SUPPLIERS BE LIABLE FOR DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY AND WHETHER ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

Local law

1 This Warranty Statement gives the customer specific legal rights. The customer may also have other rights which vary from state to state in the United States, from province to province in Canada, and from country/region to country/region elsewhere in the world.
2 To the extent that this Warranty Statement is inconsistent with local law, this Warranty Statement shall be deemed modified to be consistent with such local law. Under such local law, certain disclaimers and limitations of this Warranty Statement may not apply to the customer. For example, some states in the United States, as well as some governments outside the United States (including provinces in Canada), may:

a Preclude the disclaimers and limitations in this Warranty Statement from limiting the statutory rights of a customer (e.g. the United Kingdom);
b Otherwise restrict the ability of a manufacturer to enforce such disclaimers or limitations; or
c Grant the customer additional warranty rights, specify the duration of implied warranties which the manufacturer cannot disclaim, or allow limitations on the duration of implied warranties.

3 FOR CONSUMER TRANSACTIONS IN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND, THE TERMS IN THIS WARRANTY STATEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT LAWFULLY PERMITTED, DO NOT EXCLUDE, RESTRICT, OR MODIFY, AND ARE IN ADDITION TO, THE MANDATORY STATUTORY RIGHTS APPLICABLE TO THE SALE OF THE HP PRODUCTS TO SUCH CUSTOMERS.
