Wireless with a router (infrastructure network)
The HP Photosmart Software CD and included USB setup cable provide an easy way to
connect the HP Photosmart to your wireless network.
For optimal performance and security in your wireless network, HP recommends you use
a wireless router or access point (802.11) to connect the product and the other network
elements. When network elements are connected through a wireless router or access
point, this is called an infrastructure network.
To connect the HP Photosmart to an integrated wireless WLAN 802.11 network, you will
need the following:
❑A wireless 802.11 network that includes a wireless router or access point.
❑A desktop computer or laptop with either wireless networking support, or a network
interface card (NIC). The computer must be connected to the wireless network that
you intend to install the HP Photosmart on.
❑Broadband Internet access (recommended) such as cable or DSL.
If you connect the HP Photosmart on a wireless network that has Internet access, HP
recommends that you use a wireless router (access point or base station) that uses
Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP).
❑Network name (SSID).
❑WEP key or WPA Passphrase (if needed).

ABCDEF1234567. (12345 and ABCDE are examples only. Select a combination
of your choosing.)
Alternatively, you can use HEX (hexadecimal) characters for the WEP key. A HEX
WEP key must be 10 characters for 40 bit encryption, or 26 characters for 128 bit
encryption.
f. In the Confirm network key box, type the same WEP key you typed in the
previous step.
NOTE: You must remember the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase
(small) letters. If you enter your WEP key incorrectly on the product, the

Information on paper
The HP Photosmart is designed to work well with most paper types. Test a variety of
paper types before buying a large quantity. Find a paper type that works well and is easy
to purchase. HP papers are designed for the best quality results. In addition, follow these
tips:
•Do not use paper that is too thin, that has a slick texture, or that stretches easily. It
can feed incorrectly through the paper path, causing paper jams.
•Store photo media in its original packaging inside a resealable plastic bag on a flat
surface in a cool, dry place. When you are ready to print, remove only the paper you
plan to use immediately. When you have finished printing, return any unused photo
paper to the plastic bag.
•Do not leave unused photo paper in the paper tray. The paper might start to curl,
which might reduce the quality of your printouts. Curled paper can also cause paper
jams.
•Always hold photo paper by the edges. Fingerprints on photo paper can reduce print
quality.
•Do not use paper that is heavily textured. It can cause graphics or text to print
improperly.
•Do not combine different paper types and paper sizes in the paper tray; the entire
stack of paper in the paper tray must be the same size and type.
•For best results, do not allow printed photos to stack up in the paper tray.
•Store printed photos under glass or in a storage book to prevent bleeding over time
from high humidity.

Check the estimated ink levels
You can easily check the ink supply level to determine how soon you might need to
replace a cartridge. The ink supply level shows an estimate of the amount of ink remaining
in the cartridges.
NOTE: If you have installed a refilled or remanufactured cartridge, or a cartridge that
has been used in another printer, the ink level indicator might be inaccurate or
unavailable.
NOTE: Ink level warnings and indicators provide estimates for planning purposes
only. When you receive a low-ink warning message, consider having a replacement
cartridge available to avoid possible printing delays. You do not have to replace the
cartridges until the print quality is unacceptable.
NOTE: Ink from the cartridges is used in the printing process in a number of different
ways, including in the initialization process, which prepares the product and cartridges
for printing, and in printhead servicing, which keeps print nozzles clear and ink flowing
smoothly. In addition, some residual ink is left in the cartridge after it is used. For more
information, see www.hp.com/go/inkusage.
To check the ink levels from the HP Photosmart Software
1. In the HP Solution Center, click Settings, point to Print Settings, and then click
Printer Toolbox.
NOTE: You can also open the Printer Toolbox from the Print Properties dialog
box. In the Print Properties dialog box, click the Features tab, and then click the
Printer Services button.
The Printer Toolbox appears.
2. Click the Estimated Ink Level tab.
The estimated ink levels for the print cartridges appear.
