TIP: If you would like to install the PCL3 as well as the PostScript printer driver, click Custom
Install, select the printer from the list of detected printers and choose Custom Installation.
4. Follow the instructions on your screen to set up the printer.
The configuration program looks for printers connected to your network. When the search is
complete, a list of printers appears. Identify your printer by its IP address and select it from the list.
If your computer fails to find any printers on the network, the Printer Not Found window is displayed,
which helps you to try to find your printer. If you have a firewall in operation; you may have to disable it
temporarily in order to find the printer. You also have the options of searching for the printer by its URL,
IP address or MAC address.
NOTE: Although IPv6 is supported, automatic installation of the printer driver is not guaranteed to work
with it, so you may need to use the standard Windows Add Printer Wizard to install the driver.
Connect directly to a computer (Windows)
You can connect your printer directly to a computer without going through a network, by using the
printer's built-in USB 2.0 socket.
TIP: A USB connection may be faster than a network connection, but the cable is limited in length and
it is more difficult to share the printer.
1. Do not connect the computer to the printer yet. You must first install the printer driver software
on the computer, as follows.
2. Insert the HP Start-Up Kit CD into your CD drive. If the CD does not start automatically, run the
autorun.exe program in the root folder of the CD.
3. Click Custom Install. The PostScript printer driver and the HP Printer Utility will be installed.
4. You may see a message warning that the installer will have to communicate through the Windows
Firewall to search for printers on the network. As you intend to set up a USB connection, select
Continue installation without searching the network and click Next.
5. Follow the instructions on your screen to set up the printer. The following notes help you to
understand the screens and make appropriate choices.
●
When asked how the printer is connected, select USB cable.
●
If you would like to share the printer with other people connected to your network, press
the Printer Properties button in the Ready to Install window, set Printer Name to the name
under which the printer will be shared, then set Shared to Yes.
●
When prompted to do so, connect your computer to the printer with a certified USB cable.
Ensure that the printer is turned on.
NOTE: You may complete the installation without connecting your printer if you prefer. To
do so, check the box marked I want to connect my printer after completing the setup
wizard.
NOTE: The use of non-certified USB cables can lead to connectivity problems. Only cables
certified by the USB Implementor's Forum (
http://www.usb.org/) should be used with this
printer.
