Install the software for a network connection
Use this section to install the HP All-in-One software on a computer connected to a
network. Before you install the software, make sure you have connected the HP All-in-
One to a network.
NOTE:
If your computer is configured to connect to a series of network drives, make
sure that your computer is currently connected to these drives before installing the
software. Otherwise, HP All-in-One installation software might try to use one of the
reserved drive letters, and you will not be able to access that network drive on your
computer.
NOTE:
Installation time can range from 20 to 45 minutes depending on your
operating system, the amount of available space, and the processor speed of your
