7130 on the new computer with Win7 usb auto installation, cannot now w/ethernet network

I have a 7130 Officejet which is connected to my network by ethernet.  I just bought a new computer with Windows 7.  This printer does not have a downloadable driver for Windows 7, but the drivers that are compatible with the printer are delivered pre-installed on Win7.  The problem is that I have to connect the printer by USB to activate and install the drivers, which I did.  I don't see a way to restore a connection to the printer via ethernet after the use of the installation of the USB driver.  This will be necessary, because I'm changing more than one computer to Win7.
