Cannot connect to server message

[dev46]

I have the HP officejetpro 8710 and was able to do a wireless connect between the 8710 and my HP Envy, but I have spent hours on the scanner with no success.  All I get is the "Cannot connect to the server.  Check server name and address."

So how do I check the server name and address, and more importantly, what is supposed to be there?

Thank you for joining HP Forums. 

I'll be glad to help you 🙂 

As I understand you get the error - "Cannot connect to server",

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details: 

Did you know that the static IP needs to be assigned to resolve the issue?

If not, here's how to get it done:

-Get your printer's IP Address (Can find this under Network Config under Settings)
-Type the IP into your web browser
-On the left-hand side click on iPV4 under WIRED or WIRELESS (however you are connected)
-Click Manual DNS
-Under preferred type 8.8.8.8
-Under alternate type 8.8.4.4
-Unplug Modem from the wall. Wait 30 seconds. Plug back in.
-Turn off your printer by pushing the power button. Wait 30 seconds. Power on.

Hope this helps.

Let me know if those steps worked for you,
