HP OFFICE JET 6600 SOFTWARE

[toniann_v]

Not really sure how to go about this and it might be a stupid question...but I have the software for my HP Office Jet 6600 and I want to hook it up to my macbook(running on El Capitan) and my HP desktop (running on windows 10). When I insterted the software to both computers it will not open...basically because my computers are running on newer software and the disc needs to run on for example version10.7 on my macbook but I am running on 10.11.4. Is there a fix for this??

5. If necessary, touch the down arrow to scroll through the network names until you find yours.
6. Touch the name of your network, and then touch OK.
   If the list does not contain your network name, touch Refresh. The Wireless Setup Wizard searches for networks again, and then displays them in another list. Check the list for your network.
