What you need
●
A functional Ethernet network that includes an Ethernet router, switch, or a
wireless access point with Ethernet ports.
●
CAT-5 Ethernet cable. If the Ethernet cable provided is not long enough for your
network configuration, you might need to purchase a longer cable.
Although standard Ethernet cables look similar to standard telephone cables,
they are not interchangeable. There is a different number of wires in each one,
and each has a different connector. An Ethernet cable connector (also called an
RJ-45 connector) is wider and thicker and always has 8 contacts on the end. A
phone connector has between 2 and 6 contacts.
●
A desktop computer or laptop with either a wired or wireless connection to the
router or access point.
Note
The HP All-in-One supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps Ethernet
networks. If you are purchasing, or have purchased, a network interface
card (NIC), make sure it can operate at either speed.
●
Broadband Internet access such as cable or DSL (only if you want to access
HP Instant Share directly from the device). For more information on HP Instant
Share, see
