Other network problems after software installation

If the HP Photosmart has been successfully installed, and you are experiencing problems such as not being

able to print, try the following:

Print a network configuration report using the following instructions:

e.

Identify the IP address of the HP Photosmart from the network configuration report.
Use the advanced search option available during software installation, then click on Search by IP address

and enter the product’s IP address.

2.
3.

Turn off the router, product, and computer, and then turn them back on in this order: router first, then the

product, and finally the computer. Sometimes, cycling the power will recover a network communication

issue.
If the previous step does not solve the problem and you have successfully installed the HP Photosmart

Software on your computer, run the Network Diagnostic tool.

To run the Network Diagnostic tool

> In the Solution Center, click Settings, click Other Settings, and then click Network Toolbox. On the

Tip:

Configure your firewall software to allow communication over UDP port 427.

Step 3:

Check for and resolve the following possible conditions:

Your computer may not be connected to your network

. Make sure that the computer is connected to the

same network to which the HP Photosmart is connected. If you are connected wirelessly, for example, it is

possible that your computer is connected to a neighbor’s network by mistake.
Your computer may be connected to a Virtual Private Network (VPN)

. Temporarily disable the VPN before

proceeding with the installation. Being connected to a VPN is like being on a different network; you will

need to disconnect the VPN to access the product over the home network.
Security software may be blocking communication

. Security software (firewall, anti-virus, anti-spyware)

installed on your computer may be blocking communication between the product and the computer. An

HP diagnostic runs automatically during installation and can provide messaging about what may be

blocked by the firewall. Try temporarily disconnecting your firewall, anti-virus, or anti-spyware applications

to see if you can successfully finish the installation. You can re-enable your firewall application after

installation is complete. Make sure the following files are included in the exceptions list of the firewall:
