of HP ToolboxFX. If HP ToolboxFX is installed for a single HP LaserJet product, the Device Status
page for that HP LaserJet product appears when you open the toolbox. If HP ToolboxFX is installed for
multiple products, a product summary page appears that contains a brief summary of each product
available to HP ToolboxFX. Double-click any of the products listed to go to the Device Status page for
that product.

HP ToolboxFX is currently supported on the following operating systems:
Windows XP (32-bit and 64-bit)
Windows Vista (32-bit and 64-bit)
HP ToolboxFX also requires the Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 on the client machine, which happens
automatically during installation of the printing-system software.
Key features
This section provides information about the product alert features.
Receive alert messages for product events
Through HP ToolboxFX, the appropriate person can be alerted when certain events occur at the
products. Receive pop-up dialogs (Status Alerts) or automatically generated e-mail messages (E-mail
Alerts) for certain events. Alerts can also appear as a taskbar icon or as a desktop message. To see a
list of the events that generate alerts in HP ToolboxFX, see the
Set up Status Alerts on page 29 section.
For status alerts, a group of errors or a group of print-cartridge warnings can be selected, but not specific
items within those groups. To configure alerts, use the Set up Status Alerts screen in the Alerts folder
in HP ToolboxFX.
The following alert messages are available:
Pop-up alert messages
System-tray icon alert
E-mail alert
Pop-up alert messages
Pop-up alert messages notify you immediately when an error or print-cartridge warning occurs in the
product. An error, such as a jam, halts product operation and requires correction before the product
continues operation. The alert condition can be corrected at any time. Alerts are sent only to the specific
computer that prints to the product. This feature is provided through HP ToolboxFX and is turned on by
default.
