supports this feature. See the documentation that came with your wireless router or
access point to find out if it supports using EasySetup and for additional setup instructions.

CAUTION:

To prevent other users from accessing your wireless network, HP

strongly recommends using a password or passphrase (WPA or WEP security) and
a unique network name (SSID) for your wireless router. Your wireless router might
have been shipped with a default network name, which is typically the manufacturer
name. If you use the default network name, your network can be easily accessed by
other users using the same default network name (SSID). It also means that the
HP All-in-One might accidently connect to a different wireless network in your area
which uses the same network name. If this happens you will not be able to access
the HP All-in-One. For more information on how to change the network name, see
the documentation that came with your wireless router.

NOTE:

Before connecting to a wireless infrastructure network, ensure that the

ethernet cable is not connected to the HP All-in-One.

Write down the following information about your wireless router or access point:

WEP Key, WPA Passphrase (if needed)

If you do not know where to find this information, see the documentation that came
with your wireless router or access point. You might be able to find the network name
(SSID) and the WEP key or WPA passphrase on the Embedded Web Server for the
wireless router or access point.

determine whether network setup is successful. The wireless network test prints upon
completion of the test.
