Connecting your **HP printer to Wi-Fi** can be done in several ways, depending on your model. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
### **Method 1: Using the Printer’s Built-in Display (Touchscreen Models)**
1. **Turn on** your HP printer.
2. **Navigate** to **Wireless Setup** or **Network Settings** from the control panel.
3. Select **Wi-Fi Setup Wizard**.
4. Choose your **Wi-Fi network name (SSID)** from the list.
5. Enter the **Wi-Fi password** when prompted.
6. Wait for the printer to connect (a confirmation message should appear).
### **Method 2: Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)**
*(If your router has a WPS button)*
1. **Press & hold the WPS button** on your router for a few seconds.
2. Within **2 minutes**, press the **WPS button** on your HP printer (or select **WPS Push Button** on the touchscreen).
3. Wait for the connection to complete.
### **Method 3: Using HP Smart App (Recommended for Most Models)**
1. **Download** the **HP Smart App** ([Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hp.printercontrol) | [iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/hp-smart/id1474276998) | [Windows/Mac](https://www.hp.com/us-en/shop/tech-takes/hp-smart-app)).
2. **Turn on** your printer and ensure it’s in **setup mode** (blinking Wi-Fi light).
3. Open the **HP Smart App** and sign in (or create an HP account).
4. Tap **”Add Printer”** or **”Set Up a New Printer.”**
5. Follow the on-screen instructions to connect to Wi-Fi.
### **Method 4: Manual Wi-Fi Setup (Using Printer Buttons)**
*(For printers without a touchscreen)*
1. **Press & hold the Wireless button** on the printer until the light flashes.
2. Within **2 minutes**, press the **WPS button** on your router.
3. Wait for the Wi-Fi light to stop blinking (solid light = connected).
### **Troubleshooting Tips**
– **Restart** your printer and router.
– Ensure you’re entering the **correct Wi-Fi password**.
– Move the printer **closer to the router** during setup.
– Temporarily disable **firewalls or VPNs** that may block the connection.
