The website “123.hp.com” is the official HP site for setting up HP printers by downloading the necessary software and drivers. You can use it to start the installation of your new HP printer on your computer or mobile device. HP recommends using the HP Smart app for the easiest and fastest printer setup on phones, tablets, Windows, and macOS devices. If you have trouble connecting to 123.hp.com, it may be due to network issues or VPNs affecting access, and using the HP Smart app can be a reliable alternative[1][3][4].
Be cautious to only use the authentic 123.hp.com site; there are many scam websites posing as HP setup sites that may attempt to steal personal information or request payment for support services. The official HP site offers free software and drivers—never pay to download or install HP printer software[2].
For help getting started, HP offers instructional videos and detailed support on their community forums and YouTube playlists[1]. If you encounter connection errors or cannot reach the site, checking your device network settings or using the HP Smart app is advised[1][4].
