HP Instant Share makes it easy to send photos that family and friends can view. Just take a photo or scan an image, select the photograph or image, and use the software on your computer to forward the media to an e-mail destination. You can even upload your photos (depending on your country/region) to an online photo album, or an online photo finishing service.

With HP Instant Share, family and friends always get photos they can view—no more large downloads or images that are too big to open. An e-mail with thumbnail images of your photos is sent with a link to a secure Web page where your family and friends can easily view, share, print, and save your pictures.

Note: Some operating systems do not support HP Instant Share, but you can still use your HP Director software to send a photo to family and friends as an e-mail attachment. (For more information, see send a photo or image using your hp psc (Macintosh) on page 57.)
