I am trying to connect my new Dell laptop to my HP 4500 Envy printer.  Laptop is asking for Network Security key, I have entered 2 that were displayed on printer screen and my wifi password, those were not correct.  Suggestions?

How to you install your printer > Looks like Network Security key is your real Network Security key which is from your router. Please download and run the following software

 

    https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softlib/software12/COL47762/mp-115701-6/EN4500_198.exe

 

And select wireless then follow on screen instructions.

Thank-you!  My printer could not "find" my wireless network on 1st try so I turned off the printer and then back on.  (Which may have solved the problem in the 1st place!)

All set now!
