The HP Designjet System Maintenance provides an easy to use interface for printer maintenance, color calibration and troubleshooting tasks.

To obtain full benefit from the utility, your computer should be connected to the Internet and be equipped with a Web browser (Internet Explorer 4 or higher). Without an Internet connection, the following options are available:
  • Calibrate color
  • Calibrate paper feed
  • Maintain printheads
  • Check image quality
With an Internet connection, you have the following additional options:
  • Access to the HP Instant Support Web site. This is an automated service in which your computer collects information from your printer about status and error conditions, and sends it to HP Web servers. These then display information in your Web browser about how to solve the problems detected.
  • If HP Instant Support does not help solve the problem, the Troubleshoot option can be utilized to find other troubleshooting processes on the Web.
  • Obtain online upgrades for the printer’s firmware. This brings the printer the latest printer functionality and issue fixes.
