LaserJet Pro P1102w 20180302 Firmware won't Install

[rock-doc]

Hello Mr. Robot.

Sorry for the confusing heading I had before--the firmware was upgraded successfully (see last message to @Sandytech20).

Those are a lot of instructions to follow, but before I tackle all of those, I provide you these items:

1. The iMac devices are not part of my network at home; they just shared the wifi

2. I have a fairly dated router, an SMC Barricade SMCWGBR14-N, so it is unlikely that is supports Bonjour packets.

The iMac devices were able to print before.

When I solved my printer problems on my W7 home network yesterday, I looked into the Airprint issue a bit. Someone online suggested, as a first step to a long list of procedures, resetting the config of printer by holding down the wifi and cancel buttons of printer for 15 seconds. I did this but got distracted with other matters and didn't continue the steps outlined.  I did later print a test page, and it did showed my 802.11b/g/n wifi status as "disabled" and Network Name as "unknown" and Authentication as "none (open)"--these items were shown in previous config printout. Nonetheless, I am still able to print via my router/usb port from my PC and over the wifi from my laptop.

Would I perhaps be better off to just uninstall my printer and do a clean install from the installation CD and rebuild from there? I know the iMac devices worked up until a couple of weeks ago, so perhaps something changed with Apple?
