To set up a printer for the first time, remove the printer from the box, connect the power cord, add printer to HP Smart, load paper, install the ink cartridges, and complete setup.
If you are looking for the printer software, go to 123.hp.com.
Remove the printer from the box, and then remove all tape, stickers, and packing materials.
To avoid setup problems and potential printer damage, make sure all internal packing material is removed, all doors are closed and trays reinserted before turning on the printer.
Plug the printer into an electrical outlet, and then turn on the printer.
Do not connect a USB cable at this time. The connection to the computer is established during the software installation.
The HP Smart app is required and helps connect your device to your printer. It also guides you through the rest of the setup process.
The steps that follow on this page can be used with the instructions in HP Smart to complete printer setup.
Load plain paper in the input tray.
Before you print, make sure to select the correct paper size or media type in the print job settings.
Install the HP ink cartridges that came with your printer.
