HP Install Network Printer Wizard (Windows)

The HP Install Network Printer Wizard is a utility for printer discovery, setup and installation on a TCP/
IP network. On Windows XP and 2003 Server systems, Version 5.0 also supports printing on an IPv6
network, but printer discovery is limited to IPv4 protocols. Version 6.0 supports printer discovery on an
IPv6 network.
For wireless print servers, the wizard includes modules that allow you to first configure wireless settings
on the print server so that it can connect to your network.
Once your printers have a network connection (either through a cabled/wired connection or a wireless
connection), the wizard installs the printer on your systems or servers that will send print jobs directly
to the printer. This is called "direct-mode", or "peer-to-peer" printing.
If your system is a server, you can share the printer so that network clients can use the printer through
the server, also known as "client-server" printing.
A version that runs from your system disk can be downloaded from HP online support at:
