Using a networked HP PSC 2500 Series, 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 a simple menu on your device’s color graphics display to tag your photos with Destinations, which include your favorite e-mail addresses or e-mail distribution lists. 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.

You can also send pictures stored on a computer (Windows only). Just access HP Instant Share from the HP Photo & Imaging Director (HP Director) software that comes with your HP PSC 2500 Series (HP PSC).
