Wireless with a router (infrastructure network)
To connect the HP Photosmart to an integrated wireless WLAN 802.11 network, you will
need the following:
A wireless 802.11 network that includes a wireless router or access point.
A desktop computer or laptop with either wireless networking support, or a network
interface card (NIC). The computer must be connected to the wireless network that
you intend to install the HP Photosmart on.
Broadband Internet access (recommended) such as cable or DSL.
If you connect the HP Photosmart on a wireless network that has Internet access, HP
recommends that you use a wireless router (access point or base station) that uses
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
Network name (SSID).
WEP key or WPA Passphrase (if needed).
To connect the product with the Wireless Setup Wizard
1.
Write down the following information about your access point:
•
Network Name (also called SSID)
•
WEP Key, WPA Passphrase (if needed)
If you do not know where to find this information, see the documentation that came
with your wireless access point. You might be able to find the SSID and the WEP key
or WPA passphrase on the Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the access point. For
information on how to open the access point EWS, see the access point
documentation.
NOTE:
If the network is set up with an Apple AirPort base station and you are
using a password instead of WEP HEX or WEP ASCII to access this network, you
need to get the equivalent WEP key. See the documentation that came with the
Apple AirPort base station for more information.

This runs the Wireless Setup Wizard. The setup wizard searches for available
networks, and then displays a list of detected network names (SSIDs). The networks
with the strongest signal appear first, the weakest appear last.
