HP 4630 Inkjet Printer AIO

I would like to know how to turn sleep mode completely off on my HP 4630 AIO Inkjet Printer. The printer is on my wireless network. Everytime I want to use it it's asleep.  I've set it on the highest sleep setting of 15 minutes. Is there a way to turn the sleep mode OFF?

Hi @lcicero1

 

I don't think it is possible to disable the sleep mode on this printer. However, here is a link to a previous forum post on this topic:

The advice is as to.... 

"Try installing the printer through the wireles network, that will allow using the HP software as it meant to be and supported for the printer, the HP software is designed to wake the printer up when necessary."
