It does not work on my cell phone or laptop. They say the printer is not available.

@laura2020 To troubleshoot better, could you tell me if that's a laptop with Mac or Windows? and also, include the version of the OS,

In the mean time, let's perform a power cycle using the below steps, and retry the connection:

 

Turn the printer on, if it is not already on.

Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you continue.

With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer.

Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.

Wait at least 60 seconds.

Plug the power cord back into the wall outlet.

NOTE: 

HP recommends connecting the printer power cord directly to the wall outlet.

Reconnect the power cord to the rear of the printer.

Turn on the printer, if it does not automatically turn on.

Wait until the printer is idle and silent before you proceed.

 

Keep me posted.
