Connect to additional computers on a network

You can connect the HP All-in-One to more than one computer on a small network of computers. If the HP All-in-One is already connected to a computer on a network, for each additional computer you must install the HP All-in-One software. During installation of a wireless connection, the software will discover the SSID (network name) of the existing network. Once you have set up the HP All-in-One on the network you will not need to configure it again when you add additional computers.

NOTE: You can connect the HP All-in-One to either a wireless or wired network, but not both at the same time.
