Wireless with a router (infrastructure network)
The HP Photosmart Software CD and included USB setup cable provide an easy way to
connect the HP Photosmart to your wireless network.
For optimal performance and security in your wireless network, HP recommends you use
a wireless router or access point (802.11) to connect the product and the other network
elements. When network elements are connected through a wireless router or access
point, this is called an infrastructure network.
To connect the HP Photosmart to an integrated wireless WLAN 802.11 network, you will
need the following:
 A wireless 802.11 network that includes a wireless router or access point.
 A desktop computer or laptop with either wireless networking support, or a network
interface card (NIC). The computer must be connected to the wireless network that
you intend to install the HP Photosmart on.
 Broadband Internet access (recommended) such as cable or DSL.
If you connect the HP Photosmart on a wireless network that has Internet access, HP
recommends that you use a wireless router (access point or base station) that uses
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
 Network name (SSID).
 WEP key or WPA Passphrase (if needed).

Wireless without a router (ad hoc connection)
Use this section if you want to connect the HP Photosmart to a wireless-capable computer
without using a wireless router or access point.
There are two methods you may use to connect the HP Photosmart to your computer
using an ad hoc wireless network connection. Once connected, you can install the
HP Photosmart software.
▲Turn on the wireless radio for the HP Photosmart and the wireless radio on your
computer. On your computer, connect to the network name (SSID) hpsetup, which
is the default ad hoc network created by the HP Photosmart.
OR
▲Use an ad hoc network profile on your computer to connect to the product. If your
computer is not currently configured with an ad hoc network profile, consult the Help
file for your computer Operating System for the proper method to create an ad hoc
profile on your computer. Once the ad hoc network profile has been created, insert
the installation CD that came with the product and install the software. Connect to the
ad hoc network profile you created on your computer.
NOTE:An ad hoc connection can be used if you do not have a wireless router or
access point but do have a wireless radio on your computer. However, an ad hoc
connection may result in a lower level of network security and possibly reduced
performance when compared to an infrastructure network connection using a wireless
router or access point.
