HP Photosmart Premium Fax C309 - Manual (Page 12)

NOTE: 1 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, the HP Photosmart software
installer 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: 2 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 computer.
To install the Windows HP Photosmart Software
1. Quit all applications running on your computer, including any virus detection software.
2. Insert the Windows CD that came with the product into the CD-ROM drive on your computer and follow the
onscreen instructions.
3. If a dialog box about firewalls appears, follow the instructions. If you see firewall pop-up messages, you must
always accept or allow the pop-up messages.
4. On the Connection Type screen, select Through the network, and then click Next.
The Searching screen appears as the Setup program searches for the product on the network.
5. On the Printer Found screen, verify that the printer description is correct.
If more than one printer is found on the network, the Printers Found screen appears. Select the product you
want to connect.
6. Follow the prompts to install the software.
When you have finished installing the software, the product is ready for use.
7. If you disabled any virus detection software on your computer, make sure to enable it again.
8. To test your network connection, go to your computer and print a self-test report to the product.
Set up a Bluetooth connection
A Bluetooth connection provides a quick and easy way to print images from a Bluetooth-enabled computer without
using a cable. With a Bluetooth connection you can access many of the same printing features as with a USB
connection. For example, you can check the printer status, as well as the estimated amount of ink remaining in your
ink cartridges.
NOTE: The only software functionality available with a Bluetooth connection is printing. Scanning and software-
based copying cannot be done over a Bluetooth connection.
You must have Windows Vista or Windows XP and either the Microsoft Bluetooth ® Protocol Stack or the Widcomm
Bluetooth ® Protocol Stack installed in order to connect the HP Photosmart. It is possible to have both the Microsoft
Stack and the Widcomm Stack on your computer, but you use only one of them to connect the product.
• Microsoft stack If you have Windows Vista or Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed on your computer,
then your computer has the Microsoft Bluetooth
® Protocol Stack. The Microsoft stack allows you to install an
external Bluetooth ® adapter automatically. If your Bluetooth ® adapter supports the Microsoft stack but it does
not install automatically, then you do not have the Microsoft stack on your computer. Check the documentation
that came with the Bluetooth
® adapter to see if it supports the Microsoft stack.
• Widcomm stack: If you have an HP computer with Bluetooth ® built in, or if you have installed an HP bt450, then
your computer has the Widcomm stack. If you have an HP computer and plug in an HP bt450, it will install
automatically using the Widcomm stack.
To connect the HP Photosmart with a Bluetooth connection, you will need the following:
❑ A Bluetooth (compatible HCRP or SPP profile) capable device (such as a PDA, camera phone, or computer)
Some Bluetooth products exchange device addresses when they communicate with each other, so you might also
need to find out the device address of the HP Photosmart in order to establish a connection.
To find out the device address of the product
1. Press Setup.
