Use HP Instant Share (USB)

Chapter 12

Get started

You must have the following to use HP Instant Share with your HP all-in-one:

An HP all-in-one connected to a computer with a USB cable

Internet access through the computer to which the HP all-in-one is connected

Based on your operating system:

Windows: HP Image Zone software installed on your computer

Macintosh: HP Image Zone software installed on your computer, including the HP Instant Share client application software

For more information, see the Setup Guide that came with your device.

Once you have set up your HP all-in-one and installed the HP Image Zone software, you are ready to start sharing photos using HP Instant Share.

Send images using your HP all-in-one

Images can be photos or scanned documents. Either can be shared with friends and relatives using your HP all-in-one and HP Instant Share. Select photos from a memory card or scan an image, press HP Instant Share on the control panel of your HP all-in- one, and send your images to the destination of your choice. See the topics below for detailed instructions.

Send photos from a memory card

Use your HP all-in-one to share photos immediately upon inserting a memory card, or insert the memory card and share photos at a later time. To share photos immediately, insert the memory card into the appropriate card slot, select one or more photos, and then press HP Instant Share on the control panel.

If you insert the memory card, and then decide to send the photos at a later time, you will find that when you come back to your HP all-in-one it has gone into idle mode. Simply press HP Instant Share and follow the prompts to select and share photos.
