HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277n
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello everybody,

I actually have a very simple question. My printer (a HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277n) will be connected via WiFi soon if possible. So far it is connected to the home network via cable. I found some articles in the help, but my printer doesn't show the possibility to choose " WiFi". Hence my question: Is it possible that my device does not have a WiFi module installed? If no, what could be the reason why I don't get this option and how can I solve it?

Many thanks for any tips. I am already latent desperate...

If you really want wireless there are plenty of USB to Wireless print servers out there. HP likely has a model of their own but companies like TP-Link and Linksys are probably more cost effective.

Hello Kumar,

 

thank you for your assistance. It does help me.

 

What I do not understand, is this helpdesk article from the german HP website. It says, the printer is Wifi-capable.

Maybe you can adress this to your colleagues.

 

Thanks for your help. I will see, what kind of additional item I need, to get my printer running wireless.

According to your printer model HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277n. Only have the network. If your model has M277dw, that has wireless connectivity with a duplexer.

 

I hope you understand.

 

Have a nice day!!
