HP Photosmart B110a
macOS 10.15 Catalina

I have my HP Photosmart B110a working for many years, until one day it stopped connecting to my home network.

These are my observations:

 

1. the blue light at the front that indicates wireless connectivity is now blinking

2. when I attempt to scan for wireless networks again, some SSIDs come up, but my home network SSID does not show up

3. I will then attempt to add the home network SSID manually and associated WPA key. It still does not connect

 

I have tested printing via direct USB connection, and via LPD on my router, and these still work.

Hi, thanks for sharing the troubleshooting guide.

`~Unfortunately, none of those works. Please see my original post - it describes quite exactly what issue I’m facing.

I understand the printer is not connecting to the home network. Try converting the USB to wireless. Refer to the document Changing from a USB to a Wireless Connection for help.

 

Keep me posted.
