To hook up your HP printer wirelessly, you need to connect it to your WiFi network by using its wireless setup menu or the HP Smart app. The basic steps are:
1. Place your printer within WiFi range and power it on.
2. Access the printer’s wireless setup (via its control panel or touchscreen).
3. Select your WiFi network from the list.
4. Enter your WiFi password when prompted.
5. Wait for the printer to connect and confirm with a test print.
Alternatively, for an easier method, you can use the HP Smart app on your phone or computer:
– Download and open the HP Smart app.
– Sign in or create an HP account.
– Add your printer and follow prompts to select your WiFi network and enter the password.
– After connecting, print a test page to verify the wireless connection.
If your printer supports WPS (WiFi Protected Setup), you can also connect by pressing the WPS button on your router and printer to pair them automatically (see HP support for this method).
This process is explained in HP’s official wireless printer guide and video tutorials for HP DeskJet and other HP printers ([HP guide][1], [HP Smart app setup video][3], [HP DeskJet setup video][2]).
