HP Marketing Resources software is a suite of tools that can help you produce professional-quality marketing material by using your own HP Color LaserJet product. Often, producing marketing material “in-house” is faster and less expensive than sending the job to an external print-service provider.
Using these tools offers the following advantages:
Saves time –You no longer need to work around the print shop’s schedule. Nor do you need to spend time going to the print shop to drop off and pick up your print job.
Saves money – By using your own HP Color LaserJet product for smaller print jobs instead of sending them to an external print shop, you can often save money. You are in complete control over the document, and you can decide which options to use. Ultimately, you save money and prevent waste.
Gives you flexibility – You control the schedule, the quantity, and, most importantly, the output. You can update your marketing material whenever you want.
What Tools Are Installed With HP Marketing Resources Software?
When you download and install the HP Marketing Resources software, you get the following tools:
HP Marketing Resource Center – This is the central hub for all your marketing-material publishing needs. This tool provides links to several resources that can help you design and publish professional-quality documents.
HP Print Cost Estimator – This tool helps you estimate the cost of printing a document “in-house” using your HP Color LaserJet product. HP Print Cost Estimator can provide estimates only for documents that can be printed on a single sheet of paper. The sheet can be printed on one or both sides. This tool also provides information that helps you compare that estimated cost to the estimated cost for printing a similar styled document at an external print-service provider. Please note that estimated costs can vary accordingly.
HP Print View Software – Use HP Print View to produce the results you want. This tool combines the capabilities of a print driver with a real-time print-preview of your document. After you install the HP Marketing Resources software, HP Print View appears in the list of available printers on your computer. Using the tool, you can change various print settings and see immediately how those changes affect your document. When you are satisfied with the print settings, you can print the job directly from HP Print View. For more information, see Use HP Print View Software.
