3.16 Disable ePrint Center connectivity
This feature disables the ePrint Center functionality so that users are unable to remotely send items to print.
3.17 User sessions
This feature enables you to set a timeout so that open sessions to ePrint&Share from the printer front panel are
automatically closed if they are not used within the set time.
3.18 Disable internet connection
Disable the direct connection of the printer to the internet. This option also prevents the printer from automatically
performing firmware upgrades.
3.19 Printer Access control
For some printers, when setting an Embedded Web Server Admin password, you also restrict access to certain front
panel features. The protected features on the front panel are:
 Network connectivity & Internet connectivity
 Control firmware upgrades
 Reset factory defaults
 External hard disk connection
 Security
If a user loses the admin password, it is not possible to reset it and the printer will be locked. There is a service menu
option to reset the admin password. Only customer service agents can do this.
3.20 External hard disk (EHD)
Some printers allow the connection of an external hard disk.v Any HP Designjet printer with an internal hard disk uses
it for four main purposes:
 Storing the printer’s firmware & resources (media profiles, demo plots, diagnostic plots).
 Providing virtual memory for job processing.
 Storing/queuing jobs
 Storing the printer’s accounting data.
The HP Designjet External Hard Disk was designed for a specific purpose, however. It enables security conscious
customers to preserve the confidentiality of the jobs being printed on their HP Designjet printers.
