how to get my hp printer connected to wifi

To connect your HP printer to WiFi, you can use the **Wireless Setup Wizard on the printer’s control panel**, the **WPS button method**, or the **HP Smart app on your computer or phone**.

Here are the most common methods:

1. **Using the Printer’s Built-in Setup Wizard (for printers with a display):**
– Go to the printer’s control panel or touchscreen.
– Navigate to “Setup” or “Network Settings.”
– Select “Wireless Setup Wizard.”
– Choose your WiFi network from the list.
– Enter your WiFi password when prompted.
– Wait for confirmation of connection[1].

2. **Using WPS (WiFi Protected Setup, if your router supports it):**
– Press the WPS button on your wireless router.
– Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your printer.
– Wait until the connection is established (WiFi light will be solid)[1].

3. **Using the HP Smart App (for computers or smartphones):**
– Turn on the printer and ensure the WiFi light is blinking. If not, press and hold WiFi and Cancel buttons until it blinks.
– Download and open the HP Smart App from your device’s app store.
– Add your printer via the app (tap “Add Printer” or “New Printer”).
– Select your WiFi network and enter the password through the app.
– Follow the prompts until the printer connects to WiFi[2][3][4].

4. **USB Setup Method (for printers without a display):**
– Connect your printer to a computer with a USB cable.
– Use the HP app/software to add the printer and configure WiFi settings.
– Remove the USB cable once setup is complete[1].

If you’ve changed your WiFi network or need to reconnect:
– Restore your printer’s network settings (via touchscreen or by holding wireless + cancel buttons until lights flash).
– Enable WiFi Setup Mode to make the printer discoverable.
– Use the HP Smart app to reconnect to the new network[4][5].

Make sure your printer is within range of your WiFi router and that you enter the correct network password during setup[1].
