4 Install the software

Use this chapter to install your HP all-in-one software on either a Windows or Macintosh computer. However, before you install the software, make sure you have connected your HP all-in-one as described in one of the previous chapters.

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, HP all-in-one installation software might take one of the reserved drive letters, and you will not be able to access that network drive on your computer.

See the instructions below for your Windows or Macintosh computer.
