Nice start. But this video never shows us how to setup the HP Network. We are only given the SMB component to network file sharing. My HP officeJet 9020 needs to have something like \\host\path\filename. SMB does not work as part of host. I have tried printer IP address and every combination of path filename I can think of but does not work and how debug hint - Network error.

To anyone else having problems using the smb address, just by continually trying different ways to enter the pathname, I accidentally got it to work. I had been inputting the smb address followed by the full path to the folder. As it turns out, the smb shown on the Sharing window (see the video) already includes the path, all I needed to add was the folder name. Like so, where the "nnn" is whatever number your smb ends with, and "NetScans" is my folder name. You would enter your smb followed by whatever name you gave your folder: \\10.0.0.nnn\NetScans That's it, once I had the smb address, that's all it took. I hope this info can help others.
