Hi @FC211 ,

Welcome to HP Support Community.  

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

Connecting your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M29w printer to Wi-Fi using your phone typically involves a few steps. Here's a general guide:

Ensure Printer is Ready:

• Make sure your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M29w printer is powered on and in a ready state.

Access the Control Panel:

• Check if your printer has a control panel with a display. If yes, navigate to the wireless or network settings using the arrows and OK button on the control panel.

Find Wi-Fi Settings:

• Look for an option like "Wireless Setup Wizard" or "Wi-Fi Setup" in the menu. Select it.

Select Your Network:

• The printer will search for available Wi-Fi networks. When it displays a list, select your Wi-Fi network.

Enter Wi-Fi Password:

• If prompted, enter the Wi-Fi password using the on-screen keyboard. Confirm the entry.

Connect:

• The printer will attempt to connect to the Wi-Fi network. Once connected, you should see a confirmation message.

If your printer doesn't have a control panel with a display, or if you find it more convenient, you can also use the HP Smart app on your phone to set up the connection. Here's how:

Install HP Smart App:

• Download and install the HP Smart app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android).

Open HP Smart App:

• Open the HP Smart app on your phone.

Add Printer:

• Tap on the "+" icon to add a new printer.

Follow On-Screen Instructions:

• The app will guide you through the setup process, which typically involves selecting your printer model, confirming your Wi-Fi network, and entering the password.

Print Test Page:

• Once the setup is complete, you may be prompted to print a test page to ensure the connection is successful.

Make sure your phone and the printer are on the same Wi-Fi network during the setup process.

I hope this helps. 

Take care and have a good day.
