Hi!

I am trying to set up wireless printing for my HP Laserjet Enterprise M507 as I thought this was possible however I am starting to think I am mistaken? 
I have followed the instruction manual, downloaded the software as well as the HP Smart app to no avail. The HP Smart app is unable to locate my printer and just says to connect it to the WiFi but that’s the very thing I cannot seem to do! I am able to print if I connect my laptop to the printer via a USB but this is a pain; is there really no way to make my printer be wireless? There is no wireless icon/button on the device and the options only gives me ‘network’, no WPS - can anyone advise? 
Many thanks!

Only if your model number had a W in it would you have a wireless capable printer., IE: 507DW would be a wireless printer with automatic duplex. If you need wireless due to the printer not having access to a wired network port, they easiest option is to purchase a device like this, that connects to your existing wireless network and gives you a wired network port to plug the printer into.
