Install the software for a network connection
Use this section to install the HP Photosmart 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. If the HP All-in-One has not been connected to a network, follow the
onscreen instructions during the software installation to connect the product to the
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, 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:
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 on a networked computer
1.
Quit all applications running on your computer.

Insert the Windows CD that came with the product into the CD-ROM drive on your
computer and follow the onscreen instructions.
NOTE:
If the HP All-in-One is not connected to a network, connect the product
to the computer using the USB setup cable included in the box. Do not connect
the USB setup cable to the computer until prompted. The product will then attempt
to connect to the network.
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 an appropriate option, and then click Next.
The Searching screen appears as the Setup program searches for the product on
the network.

On the Printer Found screen, verify that the printer description is correct.
