Cannot connect my Deskjet to a new wifi network

[FrankieE]

Hello all.

I am trying to connect my new printer to a new wifi nertwork (having already setup elsewhere). I have followed the adivsed steps to print a wireless quick start guide, but cannot find the "Wireless utility icon" it tells me to use, as the only HP programme I have available is HP Smart.

I'd really appreciate some help.

Thanks!

Welcome to HP Forums. This is a great place to get support, find answers and tips to your technical queries.

We can use HP Easy start to connect the printer to your home wireless network, let's try these steps:

1.) On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wireless button  and the Cancel button  at the same time for 5 seconds. (This steps will restore default wireless settings on the printer and enable Auto Wireless connect. Immediately continue to the next step to install the software. You have approximately 120 minutes to complete the software setup using the HP auto wireless connect feature.) 

2.) Download and run HP Easy start from here.

3.) Follow the onscreen instructions to connect the printer to your home wireless network.
