Connect using Ethernet

The HP All-in-One supports both 10 Mbps and 100 Mbps Ethernet network
connections. For detailed instructions on connecting your HP All-in-One to an
Ethernet (wired) network, see

Connect to a network

in this User Guide and the printed

Setup Guide that came with your device.

Connect using Bluetooth

®

A Bluetooth

®

connection provides a quick and easy way to print images from a

Bluetooth

®

-enabled computer without using a cable. However, with a Bluetooth

®

connection you will not be able to initiate other features, such as scan and HP Instant
Share, from your computer.

Before you print, you must connect an HP Bluetooth

®

adapter to your HP All-in-One.

For more information, see the onscreen

HP Image Zone Help

that came with your

HP All-in-One. For information on using the onscreen

HP Image Zone Help

Windows users

You must have Windows XP and either the Microsoft Bluetooth

®

Protocol Stack or the

Widcomm Bluetooth

®

Protocol Stack installed in order to connect your HP All-in-One.

It is possible to have both the Microsoft Stack and the Widcomm Stack on your
computer, but you use only one of them to connect your HP All-in-One.

Microsoft stack If you have Windows XP with Service Pack 2 installed on your
computer, then your computer has the Microsoft Bluetooth

®

Protocol Stack. The

Microsoft stack allows you to install an external Bluetooth

®

adapter automatically.

If your Bluetooth

®

adapter supports the Microsoft stack but it does not install

automatically, then you do not have the Microsoft stack on your computer. Check
the documentation that came with the Bluetooth

®

adapter to see if it supports the

Microsoft stack.

Widcomm stack: If you have an HP computer with Bluetooth

®

built in, or if you

have installed an HP Bluetooth

®

adapter, then your computer has the Widcomm

stack. If you have an HP computer and plug in an HP Bluetooth

®

adapter, it will

install automatically using the Widcomm stack.

To install and print using the Microsoft stack (Windows)
1.

Make sure that you have installed the HP All-in-One software on the computer.

Note

The purpose of installing the software is to make sure the print

driver is available for the Bluetooth

®

connection. Therefore, if you have

already installed the software, you do not need to reinstall it. If you want
both a USB and a Bluetooth

®

connection to your HP All-in-One, install the

USB connection first. For more information, see the printed Setup Guide.
However, if you do not want a USB connection, select

Directly to the

computer

on the

Connection Type

screen. Also, on the

Connect Your

Device Now

screen, select the check box next to

If you are unable to

connect your device now...

at the bottom of the screen.

2.

Attach an HP Bluetooth

®

adapter to the front USB port of the HP All-in-One.
