http-equiv="Content-Type">

size="2">Simply connect the MFP directly to a PC through USB

2.0

port, set up the device without a CD and use it. It has a

retractable

control panel with a two line monochrome display. It has

scanner,

copier and fax in it. It saves energy with HP auto on/ off

technology, which turns your MFD on and off automatically.
