The HP DeskJet 1120C printer can be shared in a network environment by connecting it directly to a network via
an optional HP JetDirect external print server. You may also share your printer using Windows printer sharing
methods. Refer to the topic "Use the printer on a network" on the "How Do I?" tab in the HP DeskJet 1120C
Toolbox.
If you are using JetDirect EX Plus, it is recommended that you upgrade your firmware to E.05.13. Check the
website: http://www.hp.com for upgrade information.
Before you install the printer software:
• Make sure that your computer and print server are configured properly in a network environment. For
information about installation and setup of HP JetDirect print servers, refer to your HP JetDirect Hardware
and Software Installation Guides.
• For Windows for Workgroup 3.11, Print Manager must be enabled. To enable this, double-click the Printers
icon in the Control Panel and choose Use print manager.
