Installation steps
1. Insert the CD into CD ROM drive of your computer or download the drivers from the web at:
www.hp.com/support
If installing USB, do not connect the cable until prompted.
NOTE: You can download the Full Software Solution or just the Driver with Installer
from the web.
●
If the CD does not automatically start, browse to the CD drive of the computer, and double-
click Setup.exe.
●
If you want a driver that supports select Windows Server Editions, download the driver from
the web and then use the command line method to install. You can select only the modules
that you want to install. The command line install is a silent install, so you will not see any
user interface screens. To learn more see the IT Administrator’s Install Guide.
●
If you do not need a driver that supports select Windows Server Editions, you can download
the Full Software Solution or the Driver with Installer from the web, and then double-
click on the executable file (.exe) to start the installation. The Full Software Solution is the
same solution as the CD, and you will be able to select the recommended software you
would like to install. The Driver with Installer does not support the installation of any
additional software. When you install with the executable method, you will see user interface
screens to guide you through the install.
2. Follow the on-screen instructions.
