To reconnect your printer to Wi-Fi, turn on the printer and access its wireless or network settings via the control panel or touchscreen. Then, select your Wi-Fi network (SSID) from the list of available networks, enter the Wi-Fi password when prompted, and complete the connection process. This procedure may be called the Wireless Setup Wizard or Wi-Fi Setup on your printer’s menu, depending on the model[1][2][3][4].
Specifically:
– Ensure your router’s Wi-Fi network is active and you know the correct password.
– On the printer, go to Settings > Network or Wireless, then choose Wireless Setup Wizard or Wi-Fi Setup.
– Select your new Wi-Fi network (SSID) and enter the password.
– Confirm connection; the printer should indicate when it’s connected successfully, often with a Wi-Fi symbol[1][2][4].
Some printers also support WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) for easier reconnection:
– Press the WPS button on your router.
– Use the printer’s Wireless Setup and select Push Button (WPS) option to pair automatically[4].
If you changed your router or network recently, this reconnection is necessary because your previous Wi-Fi settings no longer match the new network details[1].
If your printer does not have a touchscreen, you may need to use manufacturer software or apps on your computer or phone for setup. Always refer to your printer’s manual or official support site for model-specific instructions[1][2][3].
