To connect a wireless printer to a new Wi-Fi network, you typically need to access the printer’s control panel or settings menu, navigate to the wireless or network settings, select the new Wi-Fi network (SSID), and enter the Wi-Fi password. After this, the printer will connect to the new network and be available for printing from devices on that network.
The detailed steps are:
1. **Power on the printer** and ensure it is within range of the new Wi-Fi network.
2. **Access the printer’s network or wireless settings** through its control panel, touchscreen, or physical buttons. This location differs by model.
3. **Select the new Wi-Fi network** name (SSID) from the list of available networks.
4. **Enter the Wi-Fi password/key** when prompted.
5. **Confirm the connection** on the printer’s screen.
6. Optionally, **restart your printer and devices** to ensure all recognize the new connection.
7. If your printer supports software or mobile apps (like HP Smart), you may use them for setup and troubleshooting.
If needed, re-run the printer’s installation or setup software on your computer to update the network details there as well.
Since exact menus and steps vary by brand and model, consult your printer’s manual or manufacturer’s website for precise instructions.
