Printing from Multiple Computers
You can use your wireless printer with more than one computer over your wireless network.
If you already have a wireless printer connected to your wireless network and want to use it with computers connected to the network, follow these steps:
-
If you have the software CD that came with your printer, simply install the printer software on each of the network computers you
want to use the printer.
Make sure the CD is compatible with your computer's operating system.
If you've lost the printer CD or it is not compatible with your computer's operating system, you can download the latest software from http://www.hp.com/go/customercare. Make sure you download the software for your particular printer model. We recommend downloading a Full Feature version, but a Drivers-Only version is also usually available.
-
During the printer software installation, select either Through the Network, Network, or Wireless
when it asks. The wording will depend on the version of software you are installing.
The software should automatically detect your printer over the network.
Sometimes the software has difficulty finding the printer over the network. If this happens, you will have a chance to do an "advanced search" for the printer using the printer's assigned . You can find the IP address by printing either the Wireless Network Test Report or a Network Configuration Page.
- Follow the on-screen directions to finish installing the software for your printer.
