How to have two printers active to select from

[TSteffes]

I have a work printer (M102w) and a personal printer (Envy 7640) and I am unable to get both online.  I want to be able to choose which printer I should be using for the print job.  My M102w printer is the one that remains offline.  I want to switch between the two, depending on the print job.  Is this possible?

Hi @TSteffes

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you.

Yes, you can use both the printer simultaneously from your PC via wireless.

• Make sure the printer and the PC are connected to the same wireless network.
• This printer supports only 2.4GHz network. So, the PC should be on the 2.4GHz network.
• If you have a Dual-band router and both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks share the same name/SSID, the printer will not be able to connect to the network. In this case, contact your Internet service provider to assign different names to both the networks.
