Remote print documents
The HP remote printer driver lets you send print jobs from Windows applications to
remote, network-connected printing devices. For example, you can remote print from
your laptop (or other PC) to your HP all-in-one, access your computer at work through a
VPN and print to your device, or send a print job from any other remote network-
connected device to your HP All-in-One. Each unit sending a print job must have the HP
remote printer driver installed on it.
The HP remote printer driver is installed on the computer (or laptop) on which you
installed the software for your device. If you want to install the HP remote printer driver
on another laptop, install the device software or download the driver from the HP
website.
Note
To download the HP remote printer driver from the HP website, make sure you
use a broadband connection. Do not use a dial-up connection. It will take
approximately 3 to 5 minutes to download the driver using a broadband
connection.
