Here is how to resolve some common issues that can keep the product from joining your network:

You may have picked the wrong network or typed in your network name (SSID) incorrectly. Check these

settings to ensure they are correct.

You may have typed in your WEP key or your WPA encryption key incorrectly (if you are using

encryption).

Note: If the network name or the WEP/WPA keys are not found automatically during installation, and if

you don’t know them, you can download an application from www.hp.com/go/networksetup that may

help you locate them. This application works for only Windows Internet Explorer and is only available in

English.

You may have a router problem. Try restarting both the product and the router by turning the power for

each of them off, and then on again.

Step 2: If you determined in Step 1 that the product is not connected to a network and this is the ﬁrst time

you are installing the product, you will need to follow the onscreen instructions during software installation to

connect the product to the network.

To connect the product to a network

Insert the product Software CD in the computer CD-ROM drive.

Follow the instructions on the screen. When you are prompted, connect the product to the computer

using the USB setup cable included in the box. The product will attempt to connect to the network. If the

connection fails, follow the prompts to correct the problem, and then try again.

When the setup is ﬁnished, you will be prompted to disconnect the USB cable and test the wireless

network connection. Once the product connects successfully to the network, install the software on each

computer that will use the product over the network.
