What you need

A functional Ethernet network that includes an Ethernet router, switch, or a wireless access point with Ethernet ports.

CAT-5 Ethernet cable. If the Ethernet cable provided is not long enough for your network configuration, you might need to purchase a longer cable.

Although standard Ethernet cables look similar to standard telephone cables, they are not interchangeable. There is a different number of wires in each one, and each has a different connector. An Ethernet cable connector (also called an RJ-45 connector) is wider and thicker and always has 8 contacts on the end. A phone connector has between 2 and 6 contacts.

A desktop computer or laptop with either a wired or wireless connection to the router or access point.

Note The HP All-in-One supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps Ethernet networks. If you are purchasing, or have purchased, a network interface card (NIC), make sure it can operate at either speed.

Broadband Internet access such as cable or DSL (only if you want to access HP Instant Share directly from the device). For more information on HP Instant Share, see Use HP Instant Share.
