Chapter 1 Printer Basics 3
Automatic Language
Switching
l
When optional printer languages (such as PS emulation) are
installed, the printer automatically determines and switches to the
appropriate language for the print job.
Wireless Infrared
Printing
l
Fast infrared (IR) printing when printing from an IrDA-compliant
device, such as a laptop, notebook computer, or a Personal Digital
Assistant (PDA).
l
JetSend IR enabled devices can also use the IR port.
Interface Connections
l
Bidirectional ECP type-B parallel port (IEEE-1284 compliant)
l
LocalTalk port
l
EIO Slot
l
Wireless Infrared port (IrDA compliant)
Networking
l
The printer provides an EIO Slot for HP JetDirect 600 N print
servers for fast and easy connectivity.
l
Use in Workgroups to provide flexibility, fast printing through the
network, and remote management.
Enhanced Memory
and Memory
Expansion
l
The HP LaserJet 2100 printer comes with 4 MB of memory and can
be expanded to 52 MB with the three available memory (DIMM)
slots. Most documents can be printed using the standard amount of
printer memory through the aid of Memory Enhancement
technology (MEt). MEt automatically compresses data, virtually
doubling the printer’s memory and allowing more complex printing
with available memory.
l
The HP LaserJet 2100 M and 2100 TN printers come with 8 MB of
memory and can be expanded to 40 MB with the two available
memory (DIMM) slots. The third slot is used for the HP PS
language DIMM.
Energy Savings
l
The printer automatically conserves electricity by substantially
reducing power consumption when not printing.

you save paper, toner, and time.
