For a few months now my printer (Office Jet Pro 9020 series) has been saying that it is not connected to smart hub and I need to setup wifi. The printer is plugged directly into the router, it has internet access as I can print from anywhere with my phone or other computers in the building via HP smart printing. I have hp instant ink and I'm getting emails saying that it's not connected and that it is a problem. If I'm connected via ethernet cord why is that not good enough? Why it insistent on me connecting via wifi?
