Chapter 9

If you have changed any firewall settings from default, try going back to the default setting.

If your firewall has a setting called "trusted zone", use this setting when your computer is connected to your network.

If your firewall has a setting to "not show alert messages", you should disable this. When installing the HP software and using the HP printer you may see alert messages from your firewall software that provide options to "allow", "permit" or "unblock". You should allow any HP software that causes an alert. Also, if the alert has a "remember this action" or "create a rule for this" selection, select it. This is how the firewall learns what can be trusted on your network.

Do not have more than one firewall enabled at the same time on your computer. An example would be having both the Windows firewall provided by the operating system and a 3rd party firewall enabled at the same time. Having more than one firewall enabled at the same time will not make your computer any safer and may cause problems.

For more information about using your printer with personal firewall software, visit www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting, and then click Firewall Help in the Need Help Troubleshooting? section.
