Connecting the printer
Your printer supports local printing and network printing. For local printing, you can connect 
the printer using a USB cable, or a parallel cable if you have a parallel connector installed. 
(USB cables or parallel cables are sold separately. To order, se
.) 
You can share the printer in these ways:
z
You can use a simple form of networking, known as locally shared networking, if you used 
a parallel cable or USB cable to connect the printer to a computer running Windows. Using 
this method, you can share the printer with other Windows users. See 
 and 
.
z
You can also use locally shared networking if you used a USB cable to connect the printer 
to a computer running a Mac OS. Using this method, you can share the printer with other 
Mac OS users. See 
z
For true network printing, you can connect using an optional HP print server. (The 
HP Jetdirect 200m print server is included with the HP Business Inkjet 1100dtn.) This 
method of printing allows both users of Windows and Mac OS to print. See 
.
Connecting directly using a USB or parallel cable (Windows)
In the Windows environment, you can connect directly using either a USB cable or a parallel 
cable.
Note
Do not connect a USB and a parallel cable to printer at the same time.
To use a USB cable to connect the printer to a computer running a Mac OS, se

USB connection
For Windows, you can use a USB cable to connect the printer to the computer if the 
computer has a USB port and is running Microsoft Windows 98, Me, 2000, or XP. 
(Windows NT does not support USB.) If your computer does not meet these 
specifications, connect the printer to your computer using a parallel connector or a print 
server (if the printer has one of these two). 
In most cases, after you install the printer software and connect a printer to the computer, 
you can install additional printers with USB cables without reinstalling the printing 
software.
z
Parallel connection
You can connect the printer to the parallel port, if you have one. The computer must have 
a parallel port and must be running Windows.
