connect my hp printer to wifi

To connect your HP printer to Wi-Fi, follow these key steps:

1. **Power on the printer** and make sure it is within range of your Wi-Fi network.

2. Use the **HP Smart app** on your smartphone or computer:
– Download and install the app.
– Open it and sign in or create an HP account.
– The app will detect your printer; if not, manually add it.
– Go to Printer Settings > Network Setup.
– Select your Wi-Fi network and enter the password.
– Tap Connect to complete setup.

3. Alternatively, you can use the printer’s **wireless setup menu**:
– Access the printer’s control panel.
– Navigate to Setup > Network > Wireless Setup Wizard.
– Select your Wi-Fi network from the list.
– Enter your Wi-Fi password.
– Wait for the printer to connect.

4. Optionally, connect using **WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)** if your router supports it by pressing the WPS button on your router and then on the printer within two minutes.

5. After connection, print a test page to confirm the printer is connected to Wi-Fi.

If the Wi-Fi light on the printer is not blinking, press and hold the Wi-Fi and Cancel buttons until it blinks to enable wireless setup mode.

These steps broadly cover HP printer Wi-Fi setup methods and work for most models.[1][2][3][4]
