Laser Jet Pro MFP M29w
macOS 10.14 Mojave

I purchased and installed the MFP M29w laser jet printer; was able to successfully connect WiFi to my IMac.  I recently changed my Network name and password (from the clunky one given to me by Spectrum) but now my printer is offline.  I tried to reinstall via the HP Easy Start page as if installing / connecting for the first time, but when I get to the connect stage it states that 'no devices have been found' even though it's on and the blue wireless button is flashing.  Would appreciate any advice / suggestions. Thanks so much.

@MichaelJP1208, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

 

Since you have made changes to your wireless network, you will have to reconfigure the wireless settings on the printer. Let us try these steps:

 

Connect the printer to the wireless network

Use WPS to connect the printer to your wireless network.

  1. Locate the WPS button on your router, but do not press it yet.

    If your router does not support WPS, skip to the next step to connect the printer with the HP Smart app.

  2. Turn on the printer. If the printer is in sleep mode, press the Cancel button on the control panel.

  3. On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wireless button  for at least 3 seconds or until the wireless light starts to flash.

  4. On the router, press and hold the WPS button for 3 to 5 seconds or until it shows that the WPS connection process has started.

    NOTE: The printer stops searching for a WPS connection two minutes after the wireless button is pressed. If you were unable to press the WPS button within that timeframe, attempt these steps again.

    Once the printer connects to the wireless network, the blue Wireless light on the control panel turns on solid.

Try printing from the MAC.

 

Let me know how this goes.
