Get started

This guide complements the information in the printed Setup Guide and the User Guide

that came with your HP all-in-one. It describes how to set up your HP all-in-one in a

network, which includes configuring and connecting the device, and installing the

software. This guide also provides examples of recommended networks, network

management information, and troubleshooting tips.

Connecting your HP all-in-one to a network enables you to share your HP all-in-one and

all of its capabilities with every computer on the network. However, if you do not intend

to connect to a network and want a direct USB connection instead, please see the

Setup Guide for information.

Use this chapter to help you find information on the following topics:

● Choose a network type

● Use the network management tools

● Switch from a USB connection to a network connection

● Connect additional computers

● Get HP support

Note For definitions of terms used in this guide, see the Glossary.
