Hello
I own HP laserJet Pro and it had been working while on wi-fi when my wi fi network was single band. I recently moved to dual band and my router TP-LInk broadcasts at 2.4Ghz and 5 Ghz. I have set up my printer and it is connected to 2.4Ghz and it even displays the IP Address.
When i connect my laptop to the same network ( 2.4 Ghz) i am unable to see the printer. I have tried everything i can even re-installing the printer driver on computer but no lock. I have also made sure the IP address is always same with the printer but still no luck.
Any help highly appreciated.
Also if you can help me set up airprint option from where i can print from any mobile device that would be awesome.
Thanks
Kiran

Do you have different SSIDs for the 5 and 2.4 Ghz bands on your router. If not, the printer may be connecting to the 5 Ghz band intermittently and not able to communicate properly on the higher bandwidth channel.

Hi,
I were referring to a Wireless Network Test Report, not to a Configuration Page, please see the relevant section in the document about printing the specific report.

Apologies. This got buried under other to-do list. I got the wireless test printed out and every thing looks ok. I am still unable to find the printer from laptop if i am connected to the same SSID which the printer is connected to .
Screen shot of the test report .
Unable to add screen shot as i keep getting rejected message. I have only cropped the section which says all tests are fine and even then unable to share the results.
