Hello Brad,

The manual says otherwise; USB connection is supported.  See page 33.

Oops!  Just noticed that the manual I cited is for a 6000, due to a
redirect on the website.  The above info regarding USB connection may
not be the case for your model.


In the end I bit the bullet and installed HP Smart on the smart phone. I had to set my self up with Google store or some such first. I just hope I can remember the passwords.

Anyway, using that app I was able to get the printer set up. It was so easy last time, but that printer was linked by USB cable, so I suppose it was easier to find.

As far as I can see, it would not be possible to set it up without the smart phone. What a pain.

Neil
