Pharos Product Notice - Pharos iMFP for HP v1

Product: Pharos iMFP for HP version 1.x
Part Number: P-iMFP-HP (for certain devices – see below)
P-HP-CCK
P-MAG-SER
Effected Regions: World wide
Notice Date: April 3rd, 2008

Effective May 1st 2008, Pharos Systems will stop order taking on the iMFP for HP version 1.x software. This
coincides with the announcement by HP of the M9050mfp and CM6040mfp. These two new devices replace
the older LJ 9040/9050 and CLJ 9500 in the HP product portfolio. This completes HP’s migration of its product
line to their Easy Select UI with all devices being supported by the Pharos iMFP for HP version 2.x (and 3.x for
the CM8060/8050). All orders for Pharos iMFP for HP solutions will be filled with version 2.x or 3.x software
from this point forward.

Existing installations of the Pharos iMFP for HP version 1.x will continue in current support mode. Defects will
be addressed and fixed. No new enhancements will be made.

The principal factor in this stop order taking notice is that the older HP devices are not optimized for solutions
deployment. The Pharos document “Pharos iMFP for HP v1.x Limitations” details the limitations imposed by
these older devices. The enhanced solutions performance of the newer HP devices makes them the
appropriate selection for customer deployment.

In addition to the Pharos version 1.x software the Pharos Card Connector and Serial Swipe Reader are also
affected by this notice. These hardware components are specific to the older HP devices without USB support.

The following devices are affected by this stop order taking notice
• LJ 4345mfp
• LJ 9040/9050mfp
• CLJ 4730mfp
• CLJ 9500mfp
