Connect to additional computers on a network
You can share the HP Photosmart on a network so that more computers can use it. If the
HP Photosmart is already connected to a computer on the network, you must install the
HP Photosmart software for each additional computer. During the installation, the
software will discover the HP Photosmart on the network for each of the computers. Once
you have set up the HP Photosmart on the network you will not need to configure it again
when you add additional computers.
