Yes, on the front you find: Setup > Network Setup > Wireless Settings > Wireless Setup Wizard. But is that only to connect the printer to the modem? I don't remember what I did initially - I set up using the 123.HP.com site. Possibly it had some button to push to access 123.HP.com? I have no idea.

Installation includes downloading software onto your computer. So, working from your laptop, open the link to 123.HP.com. That downloads the most current software, specifically for your computer. It walks you through the process. It works pretty well. In fact it says, the recommended process is to initialize the printer itself using a phone, which you may try. I did not; I did it separately for desktop and for laptop, upon initial use.

I see nothing or know of nothing on the front of the PRINTER itself that will download the required software onto your computer.

The Quick Install says to use the 123.HP website rather than the enclosed disc. That downloads the most current software, specifically for your computer. In fact it says, the recommended process is to initialize the printer itself using a phone. I did not; I did it separately for desktop and for laptop, upon initial use. It walks you through the process. Works pretty well.

I didn't use the disk. I used the website and used the guided steps. I have disk drive but never needed it
