HP DeskJet 3755 All-in-One Printer
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

All I need to do is change the network for the 3700 printer.  All these apps do nothing but tell me the printer in offline and diagnosis times out.  Troubleshooting tells me to make sure that my computer and printer are on the same network....

 

They are not that is the whole point.  I want to change the printer over to the new network.  Why is such a simple problem so hard to correct!??!?! it is simply amazing how complicated HP had made it to make such a simple change.

Yeah I reset everything but still it shows my printer out there off-line.  I can print to it using direct WiFi but this is annoying as hell as you need to drop off the network and connect direct to the printer.  While accessing the printer I tried to access the wireless UI but it would not accept the 12345678 password it printed out as the password.  If I can get that reset and able to enter I probably could set the SSID and password for the printer.

 

Why such a simple thing as changing the wireless network for a printer is such a convoluted mess of have baked apps is beyond frustrating.  I would take powershell command line over this junk.
