6.If prompted, enter your WEP key as follows. Otherwise go to step 7.

The HP All-in-One will attempt to connect to the SSID. If a message says you entered an invalid WEP key, check the key you wrote down for your new network, follow the prompts to correct the WEP key, and then try again.

Connect to additional computers on a network

You can connect the HP All-in-One to more than one computer on a small network of computers. If the HP All-in-One is already connected to a computer on a network, for each additional computer you must install the HP All-in-One software. During installation of a wireless connection, the software will discover the SSID (network name) of the existing network. Once you have set up the HP All-in-One on the network you will not need to configure it again when you add additional computers.

Note You can connect the HP All-in-One to either a wireless or wired network, but not both at the same time.

Change the HP All-in-One from a USB connection to a network connection

If you first install the HP All-in-One with a USB connection, you can later change to either a wireless or Ethernet network connection. If you already understand how to connect to a network, you can use the general directions below.

Note For optimal performance and security in your wireless network, use an access point (such as a wireless router) to connect the HP All-in-One.

2.On the control panel of the HP All-in-One, press Setup.
