To connect your HP printer to a new Wi-Fi network, start by accessing the printer’s wireless or network settings from its control panel or touchscreen. Use the Wireless Setup Wizard or similar option to scan for available networks, select your new Wi-Fi network, and enter the password to complete the connection. The printer will usually confirm once it has successfully connected[1][2][4][5].
If your printer lacks a touchscreen, you can connect it to a computer via USB, use HP’s official software to update the Wi-Fi settings, and then connect it wirelessly to the new network[1]. Alternatively, you can use the HP Smart app on your phone or computer to add the printer and configure the new Wi-Fi connection[4][5].
Here is a step-by-step approach:
1. **Using the printer control panel (for printers with a touchscreen or control panel):**
– Navigate to Wireless or Network settings.
– Select Wi-Fi Setup Wizard or Wireless Setup.
– Choose your new Wi-Fi network from the list.
– Enter the Wi-Fi password.
– Wait for the confirmation of connection.
2. **Using a computer and USB (for printers without a touchscreen):**
– Download and install the latest HP printer software from HP’s website.
– Connect the printer to your computer with a USB cable and power it on.
– Use the HP software to change the printer’s Wi-Fi settings to the new network.
3. **Using the HP Smart app:**
– Open the app and select to add a new printer.
– Follow the on-screen prompts to connect to the new Wi-Fi.
For detailed troubleshooting or alternative connection methods like WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), consult your printer manual or HP support resources[3][4][5].
