### Printers Found

The Printers Found screen lists all the printers (or multi-function devices) discovered on the local network. Select the desired printer from the list and click Next.

If your desired printer is not listed, try one of the following:

- Click the Search Again button, or
- Click the Cancel button to exit, then run the install wizard again.

Note: To set up printers that are not located on the local network, see Adding Printers on Large IP Networks.

Printers in the list are identified by the following fields. The Hardware Address might be the easiest way to identify the printer:

Model | Identifies the printer model (for example, HP LaserJet 5000 Series). Unknown is displayed if the model could not be identified, the printer is turned off, or if there is no printer connected. For HP Jetdirect external print servers, the following is displayed if a printer is connected but could not be identified: Parallel: Centronics Printer/Plotter USB (unidirectional): Unidirectional Peripheral USB (bidirectional): Bidirectional Peripheral
Hardware Address | (also called a Station Address or MAC address). Uniquely identifies a device on the local network. For HP printers and HP Jetdirect external print servers that have multiple printer ports, a port number (Port 1, Port 2, Port 3) may be appended. This address is listed on the print server's configuration (test) page.
IP Address | (Internet Protocol) Uniquely identifies a device on a TCP/IP network and is assigned by a network administrator. When an HP Jetdirect print server is powered on and is not configured with a valid IP address within two minutes, a default IP address is automatically assigned (192.0.0.192). This default IP address is not a valid address but can be used to identify a new printer. If there are multiple printers with the default address, check the Hardware Address to identify the correct printer.

Note: If a field entry is truncated and you wish to view the entire field, resize the field's width. To resize, place the cursor at the boundary of the field heading, then click and drag.

For instructions on printing a network configuration page, see the documentation that came with the printer.

If a selected printer has been protected by an SNMP Community Name or Jetdirect password, you will be prompted for the Community Name or password. If your entry is not valid, you cannot install the printer using this wizard.
