Install the software for a network connection

Use this section to install the HP Photosmart software on a computer connected to a network. Before you install the software, make sure you have connected the

HP Photosmart to a network.

NOTE: If your computer is configured to connect to a series of network drives, make sure that your computer is currently connected to these drives before installing the software. Otherwise, the HP Photosmart software installer might try to use one of the reserved drive letters and you will not be able to access that network drive on your computer.

NOTE: Installation time can range from 20 to 45 minutes depending on your operating system, the amount of available space, and the processor speed of your computer.

To install the Windows HP Photosmart Software

1.Quit all applications running on your computer, including any virus detection software.

2.Insert the Windows CD that came with the product into the CD-ROM drive on your computer and follow the onscreen instructions.

3.If a dialog box about firewalls appears, follow the instructions. If you see firewall pop- up messages, you must always accept or allow the pop-up messages.

4.On the Connection Type screen, select Through the network, and then click Next.

The Searching screen appears as the Setup program searches for the product on the network.

5.On the Printer Found screen, verify that the printer description is correct.

6.Follow the prompts to install the software.

When you have finished installing the software, the product is ready for use.

Network setup

Connect to additional computers on a network

You can connect the HP Photosmart to a small number of computers on a network. If the HP Photosmart is already connected to a computer on a network, for each additional computer you must install the HP Photosmart software. During installation of a wireless connection, the software will discover the product on the network. Once you have set up the HP Photosmart on the network you will not need to configure it again when you add additional computers.

NOTE: You can connect the HP Photosmart to either a wireless or wired network, but not both at the same time.
