Product: Office Jet Pro 8600 Plus
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (32-bit)

Trying to WiFi Network connect, but the printer is detecting the same SSID from my router and extenders.  They all have to have  the same SSID.  It won't let me connect because of this multiple detection.  How do I get around this problem?

Hi,

Multiple identical SSIDs at the range of the printer will likely prevent the printer from connecting.

 

I suggest modifying the closest  SSID to be unique and then connect the pritner to it, with a proper network configuration you should be able to print to the printer while connected to any of your SSIDs if it is all set as a single network.
