Use printer sharing (Windows)

If your computer is on a network, and another computer on the network is connected to the HP All-in-One by using a USB cable, you can use that device as your printer using Windows printer sharing. The computer connected directly to the HP All-in-One acts as the host for the printer and has full feature functionality. Other computers on the network, which are referred to as clients, have access only to the print features. All other functions must be performed on the host computer.

For more information on enabling Windows printer sharing, refer to the user guide that came with your computer or the Windows onscreen Help.
