1Following the instructions in step 13 of your Setup Poster, install the software.

2After you reach the Setup Type dialog box, choose Local.

3After the software installation process is finished, shut down your PC.

4Complete steps 3 through 11 of your Setup Poster.

5Restart your PC.

A series of Microsoft New Hardware Found messages should appear, ending with the Congratulations message. For more information, see “Microsoft’s plug-and-play messages do not appear.”

If you decide later that you want to install the HP JetDirect Print Server, complete step 2 in the Setup Poster, and then run the Network Installation Wizard. To start the wizard from the Windows taskbar, click the Start button, point to Programs, choose HP OfficeJet G Series, and then choose Network Installation Wizard.

Install your HP JetDirect Print Server later (models G55, G55xi, G85, and G85xi)
