HP PhotoSmart P1100 Color InkJet Printer Network Guide for Windows 1
1 Using Your Printer on a Network
To share your printer on a network, you must connect the printer to your network using one of the following methods. Before you
set up your printer, check that your computer is fully set up, operational, and meets the minimum system requirements listed in
“System Requirements” in your HP PhotoSmart P1100 Printer User’s Guide.
Your HP PhotoSmart P1100 printer can be shared over a network in three different ways:
• Locally Shared: Share your printer from a network-connected computer by enabling printer sharing on your computer and
connecting your printer to the parallel port of the host computer. See “Locally Shared Printer Connection” on page2 for details.
• Peer-to-Peer: Connect your printer to a network via the parallel port of an HP JetDirect External Print Server. See “Peer-to-Peer
Connection” on page8 and consult your print server documentation for help setting up the print server.
