How to Connect a Wireless HP Printer

1. Ensure that your computer's wireless card is active and that your wireless router is turned on. Insert the HP setup CD provided with your printer (if using a Mac, connect the USB cable first). When the CD menu appears, click 'Install Network/Wireless Device.' Follow the installer's prompts.
2. Connect the USB installer cable to your computer and printer when the installer prompts you to do so.
3. Click 'Finish' to complete the install, open a document, and print it.
Using an Ad Hoc Network
1. Ensure that both your computer's and your printer's wireless signals are active. (This is usually indicated by a lighted 'radio tower' icon or similar symbol.)
2. Open your computer's control panel and select 'Network and Internet.'
3. Click on 'Connect to a Network,' located under the 'Network and Sharing Center' heading.
4. Select the network 'hpsetup' from the list of available networks.
5. Install the printer software using the steps from Section 1. Open a document and print a test page.
