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 third party firewall enabled at the same time. Having more than one
firewall enabled at the same time will not make you computer any safer and may
cause problems.
