Installing the HP LaserJet 1010
series software
Note HP recommends installing the HP LaserJet 1010 series software before connecting the printer to
the computer. Wait for the prompt to connect the printer.
Overview of software installation
This section provides information for installing the HP LaserJet 1010 series printing system
software using Windows and Macintosh operating systems. See page 9 for a list of the operating
systems supported by printer software.
The HP LaserJet 1010 series software is shipped on one CD-ROM. On Windows systems, the
Setup program installs the HP LaserJet 1010 series software from the CD-ROM to the hard disk
and updates Windows files. On Mac OS systems, the HP LaserJet 1010 series Installer program
installs the HP LaserJet 1010 series software from the CD-ROM to the hard disk.
On installation, you are presented with the following options:
! Typical installation (installs all of the basic components in the default locations)
! Custom installation (allows you to specify components and locations for installation)
On Mac OS systems, the HP LaserJet 1010 series printers use the HP LaserJet 1010 Installer.
Also, printer software will only install on the current system startup drive that contains the active
System folder.
Note Moving the HP LaserJet Software folder after installation may cause the program not to work.
On all of the supported platforms, each install option presents you with a series of query dialog
boxes that guide you through the installation. The Installer will guide you through the installation,
whether you are configuring a directly-connected or networked HP LaserJet 1010 series printer.
The installer has the ability to detect hardware and network connections and help guide the
installation. For instance, if the installer detects an HP LaserJet 1010 series printer, it can
automatically configure the software’s connection to that printer. This saves the user several
steps.
