HP Watermark and Image Retention Policy  
The IPS monitor models are designed with IPS (In-Plane Switching) display technology which  
provides ultra-wide viewing angles and advanced image quality. IPS monitors are suitable for a wide  
variety of advanced image quality applications. This panel technology, however, is not suitable for  
applications that exhibit static, stationary or fixed images for long periods of time without the use of  
screen savers. These types of applications may include camera surveillance, video games, marketing  
logos, and templates that are displayed on the screen for a prolonged period of time. Static images  
may cause image retention damage that could look like stains or watermarks on the monitor's screen.  
Monitors in use for 24 hours per day that result in image retention damage are not covered under the  
HP warranty. To avoid image retention damage, always turn off the monitor when it is not in use or  
use the power management setting, if supported on your system, to turn off the display when the  
system is idle.

Software and Utilities  
The disc that comes with the monitor contains files you can install on the computer:  
an .INF (Information) file  
ICM (Image Color Matching) files (one for each calibrated color space)  
color calibration software  
NOTE: If the monitor does not include a disc, the .INF and .ICM files can be downloaded from the  
HP monitors support Web site. See Downloading from the Internet on page 27 in this chapter.  
The Information File  
The .INF file defines monitor resources used by Microsoft Windows operating systems to ensure  
monitor compatibility with the computer’s graphics adapter.  
This monitor is Microsoft Windows Plug and Play compatible and the monitor will work correctly  
without installing the .INF file. Monitor Plug and Play compatibility requires that the computer’s  
graphic card is VESA DDC2–compliant and that the monitor connects directly to the graphics card.  
Plug and Play does not work through separate BNC type connectors or through distribution buffers/  
boxes.  
The Image Color Matching File  
The .ICM files are data files that are used in conjunction with graphics programs to provide consistent  
color matching from monitor screen to printer, or from scanner to monitor screen. This file is activated  
from within graphics programs that support this feature.  
NOTE: The ICM color profile is written in accordance with the International Color Consortium (ICC)  
Profile Format specification.

this configuration if supported by the graphics card.  
To use DisplayPort multistreaming:  
1. Make sure that DisplayPort is used for your primary video input.  
2. Add a second monitor by connecting a DisplayPort cable between the DisplayPort OUT  
connector on the primary monitor and the DisplayPort IN connector on a secondary multistream  
monitor or the DisplayPort input connector on a secondary non-multistream monitor.  
3. You can set the connected monitor to display the same image as the primary monitor or a  
different image. In the OSD for the connected monitor, select Management > DisplayPort  
Output and select one of the following:  
a. DisplayPort 1.1 Compatibility Mode (default) - allows the same video image to be sent to  
all monitors downstream of the monitor you are configuring  
b. DisplayPort 1.2.- allows a different image to be sent to all monitors downstream of the  
monitor you are configuring  
4. After setting the DisplayPort Compatibility Mode in the OSD, use the computer operating  
system's display settings to set the display mode for the secondary monitor to either mirror the  
image of the primary display or extend the second display for a different image from the primary  
display.  
If you wish to connect additional monitors downstream (up to four maximum), all but the final monitor  
in the chain must support DisplayPort multstreaming.  
28 Chapter 4 Operating the Monitor  
 
Connect from the DisplayPort OUT of one monitor to the DisplayPort IN of the next, until you have the  
desired number of displays.  
If you want different information on each screen be sure that all upstream monitors are configured to  
DisplayPort 1.2 mode, as described above.  
The number of monitors you can connect through DisplayPort multistreaming depends on a number  
of factors, including the resolutions and scan rates used for each monitor and the capabilities of your  
GPU or embedded graphics system. Check the manual that came with your graphics card for further  
information on its capabilities.

Using Auto-Sleep Mode  
The display supports an OSD (On-Screen Display) option called Auto-Sleep Mode that allows you to  
enable or disable a reduced power state for the display. When Auto-Sleep Mode is enabled (enabled  
by default), the monitor will enter a reduced power state when the host PC signals low power mode  
(absence of either horizontal or vertical sync signal).  
Changing the Bezel Button Functions 29  
     
Upon entering this reduced power state sleep mode, the monitor screen is blanked, the backlight is  
turned off and the power LED indicator turns amber. The monitor draws less than 0.5W of power  
when in this reduced power mode. The monitor will wake from the sleep mode when the host PC  
sends an active signal to the monitor (for example, if you activate the mouse or keyboard).  
You can disable the Auto-Sleep Mode in the OSD. Press one of the five front bezel buttons to activate  
the buttons, and then press the bottom Open Menu button to open the OSD. In the OSD press  
Management > Auto-Sleep > Disable.  
Using the On-Screen Display Menu  
Use the On-Screen Display (OSD) to adjust the screen image based on your viewing preferences. To  
access the OSD, do the following:  
1. Press any of the five buttons on the right side of the front bezel to activate the buttons.  
2. Press the bottom Open Menu button to open the OSD.  
3. Use the top four Function buttons to navigate, select, and adjust the menu choices. The button  
labels are variable depending on the menu or sub-menu that is active.  
NOTE: OSD menu items that are grayed out are not supported with the selected video input and

Color Management  
The monitor includes both standard and user definable color space settings to support a variety of  
customer uses. Most color spaces are pre-calibrated at the factory and can be recalibrated by the end  
user when the HP DreamColor Calibration Solution kit is used (sold separately). Calibration includes  
control of the monitor’s color gamut, RGB primaries, gamma, and luminance. The RGB Adjust color  
selections are not calibrated and cannot be calibrated.

Color Calibration — Factory  
Three standard color spaces, sRGB, AdobeRGB, and BT.709, are calibrated at the factory and a one-  
page calibration report is printed and included in each monitor carton.  
Native color space is configured at the factory to provide the maximum panel luminance.  
The default setting for the User color space is the same as Native.  
Factory calibration settings are saved in monitor memory and can be re-applied at any time through  
the On-Screen Display.  
Color Calibration — User  
With the exception of the native panel color space, each color space can be calibrated by the end  
user with the user calibration software that comes with the product and with a colorimeter device (the  
colorimeter is included in the DreamColor Calibration Solution option kit, sold separately). The user  
36 Chapter 4 Operating the Monitor  
       
calibration software is a Windows-based application that requires use of the Windows 7 or later  
operating system. The calibration process uses the following steps:  
1. Insert the monitor documentation disc into the host computer’s CD/DVD player.  
2. Install the user calibration program on the host computer.  
3. Place the colorimeter from the DreamColor Calibration Solutions kit in front of the monitor panel  
as directed.  
4. Run the calibration software and follow the on-screen steps. One color space can be calibrated  
and named at a time. Two methods of calibration are possible:  
Wizard mode – the application will ask questions about the user’s environment and usage  
then will suggest settings to be used.  
Expert mode – the user will be asked to input all the variables intended for use in the  
calibration process.  
When calibration is complete, the values are saved in monitor memory. The most recent calibration  
settings can be re-applied at any time through the On-Screen Display.  
Auto EDID Update  
By default, the display automatically updates the display EDID when you switch color spaces.  
If Auto EDID Update is enabled, the EDID will be updated for all inputs every time you change the  
active color space preset. If Auto EDID Update is disabled, each input will be set to the factory default  
values for the Native color space.  
You can enable or disable Auto EDID Update in the OSD:  
1. Press any of the five front bezel buttons on the right side of the front bezel to activate the  
buttons.  
2. Press the bottom Open Menu button to open the OSD.  
3. In the OSD, select Management > Auto EDID Update and then select either Enable or  
Disable.

ENERGY STAR® Qualification  
As an ENERGY STAR® Partner, Hewlett Packard Company has followed the EPA's enhanced  
product qualification and certification process to ensure that the products marked with the ENERGY  
STAR® logo are ENERGY STAR® qualified per the applicable ENERGY STAR® guidelines for  
energy efficiency.  
The following ENERGY STAR® certification mark appears on all ENERGY STAR® qualified displays:  
The ENERGY STAR® program specifications for displays and computers were created by the EPA to  
promote energy efficiency and reduce air pollution through more energy-efficient equipment in  
homes, offices, and factories. One way products achieve this goal is by using the Microsoft Windows  
power management feature to reduce power consumption when the product is not in use.  
The power management feature enables the computer to initiate a low-power or “sleep” mode after a  
period of user inactivity. When used with an external ENERGY STAR® qualified display, this feature  
also supports similar power management features for the display. To take advantage of these  
potential energy savings, users should use the default power management settings that are provided  
with ENERGY STAR qualified computers and displays. The default power management settings on  
ENERGY STAR® qualified computers are preset to behave in the following ways when the system is  
operating on AC power:  
Turn off an external display after 15 minutes of user inactivity  
Initiate a low power sleep mode for the computer after 30 minutes of user inactivity  
ENERGY STAR® qualified computers exit the low power sleep mode and ENERGY STAR® qualified  
displays resume operation when the user resumes use of the computer. Examples include the user  
pressing the power/sleep button, receiving an input signal from an input device, receiving an input  
signal from a network connection with the Wake On LAN (WOL) feature enabled, etc.  
Additional information on the ENERGY STAR® program, its environmental benefits and the potential  
energy and financial savings of the power management feature can be found on the EPA ENERGY  
STAR® Power Management Web site at http://www.energystar.gov/powermanagement.

D LCD Monitor Quality and Pixel Policy  
The TFT monitor uses high-precision technology, manufactured according to HP standards, to  
guarantee trouble-free performance. Nevertheless, the display may have cosmetic imperfections that  
appear as small bright or dark spots. This is common to all LCD displays used in products supplied by  
all vendors and is not specific to the HP LCD. These imperfections are caused by one or more  
defective pixels or sub-pixels.  
A pixel consists of one red, one green, and one blue sub-pixel.  
A defective whole pixel is always turned on (a bright spot on a dark background), or it is always  
off (a dark spot on a bright background). The first is the more visible of the two.  
A defective sub-pixel (dot defect) is less visible than a defective whole pixel and is small and  
only visible on a specific background.  
To locate defective pixels, the monitor should be viewed under normal operating conditions, in normal  
operating mode at a supported resolution and refresh rate, from a distance of approximately 50 cm  
(20 in).  
HP expects that, over time, the industry will continue to improve its ability to produce LCDs with fewer  
cosmetic imperfections and HP will adjust guidelines as improvements are made.
