To connect an HP printer to a wireless network, you can use several methods such as Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS), the HP Smart app, or manual network configuration through the printer’s control panel.
The most common approach is:
– Using the WPS push button method: Press and hold the wireless button on your HP printer until it blinks, then press the WPS button on your router within two minutes. The printer will connect automatically without needing to enter the network name or password[1].
– Using the HP Smart app: Download and install the HP Smart app on your phone or computer, sign in or create an HP account, add your printer, then select your Wi-Fi network and enter its password through the app to connect your printer wirelessly[3][4].
– Alternatively, you can manually access your printer’s Network or Wireless Settings menu, choose Wi-Fi setup, select your network, and enter the Wi-Fi password to connect[1][3].
If your printer and device support Wireless Direct printing, you can print directly without a network by connecting your mobile device to your printer’s Wi-Fi signal[2].
After connection, install the necessary HP printer software or drivers on your computer or mobile device to start printing[1][3][5].
These methods cover most HP wireless printing setups and enable printing from computers, smartphones, or tablets wirelessly.
