Travel tips

The following tips will help you prepare for traveling with your printer:

•If you are bringing an extra black or photo print cartridge, follow these guidelines: For a partially used black print cartridge or a partially used or full photo print cartridge, store it in the travel holder to prevent ink leakage (see HP supplies and accessories). A newly opened black print cartridge will leak slightly at high altitudes (such as in airplanes). To avoid this, wait to install new black cartridges until you reach your destination. Until then, keep them in their original, taped packaging.

•You can bring the printer in a carrying case. (See HP supplies and accessories.) The carrying case has compartments for both your notebook and the printer. The compartments also detach if you want to carry the notebook and printer separately.

•Turn off the printer using (Power button). This ensures that the print cartridges return to the home position at the left side of the printer and lock in place.

•Disconnect the printer cable and power adapter from the printer. Slide down the input tray extension and close the input tray.

•If you are traveling to another country/region, bring the necessary plug adapter with you.

•If you need to buy print cartridges while traveling to another country/region, see the online help called “Traveling with your HP Mobile Printer” for regional cartridge compatibility information. This help is available through the Toolbox (Windows), HP Printer Utility (Mac OS), or Toolbox software for PDAs (Pocket PC and Palm OS).

•Use only the power adapter that is supplied with the printer. Do not use any other voltage transformer or converter. The power adapter can be used with AC power sources of 100 to 240 volts, 50 or

60 Hz.

•Remove the battery if you will not be using the printer for more than a month.

•When traveling with photo paper, pack it flat so it doesn’t warp or curl. Photo paper should be flat before printing. If the corners of the photo paper curl more than 10 mm (3/8 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in the resealable storage bag, then rolling the bag on a table edge until the paper is flat.

Installing and using 802.11 and Bluetooth accessories

The HP Deskjet 460wf includes an HP 802.11 wireless printer card and the HP Deskjet 460wbt includes a Bluetooth wireless printer card. The printer also supports Bluetooth USB accessories.

See http://www.hp.com/support/dj460 to learn more about supported wireless accessories.

Installing the 802.11 or Bluetooth wireless printer card

• Insert the HP 802.11 or Bluetooth wireless printer card, with the lights facing up, into the CF card slot.

The 802.11 card has two lights: left is blue, right is orange. When the card is plugged in, the left blue light will be on; when there is 802.11 data communication, the right orange light will be blinking.

The Bluetooth card has one light with two colors: when the card is plugged in, the green light will be on; when there is Bluetooth data communication, the orange light will be blinking.

NOTE: Make sure that your Bluetooth host device and operating system are supported by the printer. For more information, visit http://www.hp.com/support/dj460.

Installing a Bluetooth USB adapter

The printer supports Bluetooth accessories that connect to the USB/Pictbridge port. To install a USB Bluetooth adapter, connect it to the USB/Pictbridge port on the back of the printer.

802.11 and Bluetooth wireless printing

The 802.11 and Bluetooth features in this printer allow you to print wirelessly. 802.11 printing allows wireless printing up to 100 meters (300 feet). Bluetooth printing allows wireless printing up to 10 meters (30 feet).

For instructions on wireless printing from mobile devices, see Printing from mobile devices.

NOTE: Wireless communication is available through wireless printer cards that are included with certain printer models. Also, the sending device must have built-in wireless capability or a wireless card installed.

NOTE: Wireless printing uses more battery power than wired printing. See Installing and using the battery for information on checking the battery charge level.

About 802.11

802.11 wireless technology allows you to wirelessly connect to your printer by setting up “ad hoc” communication between your computer and the printer. 802.11 does not require a direct line of sight between the sending device and the receiving device.

When you set up ad hoc communication between your computer and the printer, you are creating a network of two devices. This is the recommended setup for 802.11 printing to this mobile printer.

802.11 also lets you set up the printer on an existing “infrastructure” network. Setting it up on an infrastructure network puts the printer directly onto a local area network (LAN) using a wireless connection to an 802.11 wireless access point (WAP). Once the printer is successfully connected to the network wirelessly, then all the computers on the same subnet can use the printer.

Before setting up the printer, it is recommended that you temporarily connect the printer to the computer with a USB cable to set up the wireless connection. Once the wireless connection is established, you will remove the cable and print wirelessly. You can also set up the printer without using a USB cable.

To set up and configure the printer for 802.11 wireless printing, see 802.11 wireless connection.

About Bluetooth

Bluetooth wireless technology allows you to wirelessly connect to your printer using radio waves in the 2.4 GHz spectrum. Bluetooth is typically used for short distances (up to 10 meters or 30 feet) and does not require a direct line of sight between the sending device and the receiving device.

Different Bluetooth profiles emulate different types of standard cable connections and have different capabilities. See Bluetooth wireless profiles for more information about Bluetooth profiles.

When your printer is directly connected to your computer (either by cable or Bluetooth), it is possible to share it on a network using “printer sharing”. However, your computer has to be connected to the network for others to use the printer.

To set up and configure the printer for Bluetooth wireless printing, see Bluetooth wireless connection.

NOTE: To configure Bluetooth settings or monitor printer status (such as ink levels) using the Toolbox, you must connect the printer to your computer with a USB cable.

3 Using the printer

This chapter provides information on media usage for the printer, changing print settings, and performing basic printing tasks.

Selecting print media

The printer is designed to work well with most types of office paper. It is best to test a variety of print media types before buying large quantities. Use HP media for optimum print quality. See HP supplies and accessories.

Tips for selecting and using print media

For the best results, observe the following guidelines.

•Always use media that conforms to the printer specifications. See Understanding specifications for supported print media.

•Load only one type of media at a time. On models that have an input tray extension, make sure the input tray extension is fully extended.

•Load media print-side up and aligned squarely against the alignment guides. See Loading media.

•Do not overload the input tray. See Understanding specifications for supported print media.

•To prevent jams, poor print quality and other printer problems, avoid the following media:

•Multipart forms

•Media that is damaged, curled, or wrinkled

•Media with cutouts or perforations

•Media that is heavily textured, embossed, or does not accept ink well

•Media that is too lightweight or stretches easily

•For quick access to the printer settings, use the Printing Shortcuts tab (Windows only). (Open the printer driver, select the Printing Shortcuts tab, and select the feature from the What do you want to do? drop-down list.)

•Do not leave media in the input tray overnight. This might cause it to bend.

•Remove each sheet of media as it prints and set aside to dry. Allowing wet media to stack up might cause smearing.

•For instructions on calibrating color, see Calibrating color.

Cards and envelopes

•Always load envelopes into the printer with the flap facing the back of the printer and the stamp position oriented according to the envelope icon.

•Avoid envelopes that have a very slick finish, self-stick adhesives, clasps, or windows. Also avoid cards and envelopes with thick, irregular, or curled edges, or areas that are wrinkled, torn, or otherwise damaged.

•Use tightly constructed envelopes, and make sure the folds are sharply creased.

Photo paper

•Use Best mode to print photographs. This mode provides longer drying time and ensures that the ink dries completely before the next page is printed. In this mode, printing takes longer and more memory is required from your computer.

You can also select Maximum dpi for optimum print quality for photographs. See Printing digital photographs.

•Remove each sheet as it prints and set it aside to dry. Allowing wet media to stack up might cause smearing.

•Photo paper should be flat before printing. If the corners of the photo paper curl more than

10 mm (3/8 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in the resealable storage bag, then rolling the bag on a table edge until the paper is flat.

Transparencies

•Use Best mode to print transparencies. This mode provides longer drying time and ensures that the ink dries completely before the next page is printed. In this mode, printing takes longer and more memory is required from your computer.

•Load transparencies print-side up and the adhesive strip pointing towards the front of the printer. The print side of the transparencies is the rougher side.

•Remove each sheet as it prints and set it aside to dry. Allowing wet media to stack up might cause smearing.

Custom-sized media

•Use only custom-sized media supported by the printer.

•If your application supports custom-sized media, set the media size in the application before printing the document. If not, set the size in the printer driver. You might need to reformat existing documents to print them correctly on custom-sized media.

Printing digital photographs

You can print photographs directly from a digital camera or directly from a memory card, or you can transfer the photos from the card or camera to your computer and print them from a software application, such as HP Photo Printing Software. Also, you can print photos directly from a PictBridge-compatible camera.

If your digital camera uses a Type I CompactFlash™ (CF) card, SD card, or MMC, you can insert the card into the printer to print your photos. Your camera must support Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) version 1 or 1.1 in order to print directly from the card to the printer. DPOF files also automatically print directly from a USB Flash drive that is connected to the USB port of the printer.

See Printing from memory cards and USB Flash drives for more information.

To print with six-ink color

Your printer can print with six-ink color to enhance the quality of printed photographs. Print high-quality grayscale photographs by using a black print cartridge and a tri-color print cartridge, or by using a gray photo print cartridge and a tri-color print cartridge. To perform six-ink color printing, a photo and a tricolor print cartridge must be installed together.

NOTE: You can print high-quality black-and-white photographs using a gray photo print cartridge, combined with the tri-color print cartridge.

Guidelines for printing photographs

•For the best results when printing photographs and images, choose Best mode and select an HP photo paper in the printer driver. Best mode uses HP’s unique PhotoREt IV color-layering technology and ColorSmart III color optimization technology to create realistic photo images, vivid color output, and extremely sharp text. With PhotoREt IV, a greater range of colors, lighter tones, and smoother gradations between tones can be achieved, ensuring the best photo and image print quality.

Alternatively, select Maximum dpi, which provides up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi* for optimum print quality.

*Up to 4800 x 1200 optimized dpi for color printing and 1200 input dpi. This setting might temporarily use a large amount of hard disk space (400 MB or more) and will print more slowly. Photo cartridge, if present, further enhances the print quality.

•It is recommended to remove each sheet of paper as it prints and set it aside to dry.

•If the printed colors visibly shift towards yellow, cyan or magenta, or there is a tinge of color in the gray shades, you need to calibrate the color. See Calibrating color.

•If you install photo print cartridges, align the print cartridges for best possible print quality. You do not need to align the print cartridges every time you install a photo print cartridge, only when necessary. See Aligning the print cartridges.

•To store a print cartridge, see Travel tips.

•Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper reduce print quality.

•Photo paper should be flat before printing. If the corners of the photo paper curl more than

10 mm (3/8 inch), flatten the paper by putting it in the resealable storage bag, then rolling the bag on a table edge until the paper is flat.

To print from a PictBridge-compatible camera

The printer supports standard PictBridge-compliant features. See your digital camera documentation for more information about using its PictBridge features.

1.Connect the camera to the printer with the USB cable provided with the camera. The printer and camera compare features, and the compatible features are displayed on the camera.

2.Navigate through the camera menus to execute the desired photo-printing features.

To transfer photos to your computer

NOTE: The printer driver lets your computer read memory cards inserted into the printer as physical disk drives when you are connected with a USB cable. You can then access your photo files and print them with the software of your choice. (See Installing the printer software and sharing the printer (Windows).)

1.Insert the memory card into the correct card slot on the printer. Make sure the side of the card with the connecting pins or holes is placed into the printer first.

2.Press (Cancel button) to cancel direct printing from the card. If your computer is connected to the printer with a USB cable, the card then appears as a drive in Windows Explorer or on the Mac OS desktop. You can then transfer the photo files to another drive on the computer or open and print your photographs with the software application of your choice.

Using memory devices

The following section provides information on printing from memory cards and USB Flash drives.

Printing from memory cards and USB Flash drives

If your digital camera uses a Type I CF card, SD card, or MMC, you can insert the card into the printer to print your photos. Your camera must support Digital Print Order Format (DPOF) version 1 or 1.1 in order to print directly from the card to the printer. See your digital camera documentation to see if it supports DPOF files and for additional instructions on printing photos.

DPOF files are files created by digital cameras. They are stored on the camera’s memory card and contain information such as which images are selected to print and how many of each image are to be printed or saved. The printer can read a DPOF file from the memory card so you do not have to use the printer software to reselect the images to print or save.

DPOF files also automatically print directly from a USB Flash drive that is connected to the USB port of the printer.

You can also transfer photos from a memory card or a USB Flash drive onto your computer’s hard disk and print them from a software application such as HP Photo Printing Software.

For information on loading photo paper, see Loading media.

To print from a memory card

1.Select the images you want to print by creating a DPOF file while the memory card is still in your digital camera. The settings you can specify (such as number of copies) are specific to your camera. See your digital camera’s documentation for more information.

2.Turn on the printer.

3.Load the appropriate media. See Loading media.

4.Configure your desired print settings:

•Windows: Open the Toolbox (see Toolbox (Windows)). Click the Printer Services tab, and then click Print Settings. In the dialog box specify paper type, size, and print quality.

•Mac OS: Open the HP Printer Utility (see HP Printer Utility (Mac OS)). Click Direct Print Settings, and then in the dialog box specify paper type, size, and print quality.

NOTE: If you do not have the Toolbox or HP Printer Utility installed, print a configuration page to check printer media settings for direct printing. This information will verify whether you are loading the correct media size and type before printing. See Understanding device information pages.

5.Insert the card containing the DPOF file into the correct card slot on the printer. Make sure the side of the card with the connecting pins or holes is placed into the printer first.

CAUTION: If you do not insert the edge with card connector into the printer first, you can damage the card, the printer, or both.

The Resume light will blink after a few seconds if there is a DPOF file on the card.

6.Press (Resume button) to print the images. The printer will automatically recognize the DPOF file on the memory card and print the images according to the specifications you set in the file. If it is a large file, the printer might take some time to print after you press (Resume button).

CAUTION: Do not remove the memory card until the print job is completed. Otherwise the print job will be canceled.

NOTE: Printing might take several minutes, depending on print settings and the complexity of the image.
