If you want to: Connect to a wireless network with an access point (802.11 b or g). Connect to a wireless network without an access point. Connect to a wired (Ethernet) network. Install the HP All-in-One software for use in a networked environment. Add connections to more computers on the network. Change the HP All-in-One from a USB connection to a network connection. Note Use the instructions in this section if you first install your HP All-inOne with a USB connection, and you now want to change to either a wireless or Ethernet network connection. View or change the network settings. Find troubleshooting information.

For definitions of networking terms, see the Network Glossary in the onscreen HP Image Zone Help that came with your HP All-in-One. For information on using the onscreen HP Image Zone Help, see Use the onscreen Help. Wireless infrastructure network setup For optimal performance and security in your wireless network, HP recommends you use a wireless access point (802.11b or g) to connect your HP All-in-One and the other network elements. When network elements are connected through an access point, this is called an infrastructure network. A wireless network without an access point is called an ad hoc network.
