Thank you for purchasing an HP Compaq thin client. We hope you have years of use from our t5135 or
t5530 thin clients. Our goal is to provide you with award-winning clients that are easy to deploy and
manage with the power and reliability you expect.
HP has partnered with Altiris to manage HP Compaq thin clients. Altiris Deployment Solution is a leading-
edge tool to help with quick deployment and for ongoing management of the thin clients in your
organization. Each HP Compaq thin client is recognized by the Altiris Deployment Solution as a
supported device. As a result, you need not track license compliancy for each device. For additional
information about the Altiris Deployment Solution tool, refer to the Altiris Deployment Solution insert that
shipped with the thin client and the Deployment Solution User Guide that is available at
