Computer connection information

The HP Photosmart comes equipped with a rear USB 2.0 High Speed port for connection to a computer.
If you use a USB cable to connect the HP Photosmart to a computer on a network, you can set up printer sharing on your computer. This enables other computers on the network to print to the HP Photosmart, using your computer as the host.
The host computer (your computer, connected directly to the HP Photosmart by a USB cable) has full software functionality. Other computers, which are referred to as the clients, have access only to the print features. HP recommends up to 5 computers for the best performance. You must perform other functions from the host computer or from the control panel on the HP Photosmart.
To connect the product with the USB cable
Refer to the Start Here guide that came with your product for information on
connecting to a computer with a USB cable.
Finish setup
NOTE: Do not connect the USB cable to the product until you are prompted to
do so.
To enable printer sharing on a Windows computer
Refer to the user guide that came with your computer or see the Windows onscreen
Help.

For example, you can check the printer status, as well as the estimated amount of ink remaining in your ink cartridges.
NOTE: The only software functionality available with a Bluetooth connection is
printing. Scanning and software-based copying cannot be done over a Bluetooth connection. However, stand-alone copy functions are still available.
