Welcome to the HP Community Forum.

I did not find the "nw" model - did find this:

HP Color LaserJet Pro M252 series 

and

Printer Specifications for HP Color LaserJet Pro M252, M274, and M277 Printers

HP Color LaserJet Pro M252dw Printer

The following list of methods for connecting your printer to your computer, mobile device, or network is for the HP Color LaserJet Pro M252dw printer.

Connection method	Requirement
Wired (Ethernet)	10/100/1000 Base-TX
Wireless	802.11 b/g/n – 2.4 GHz networks only
USB	Hi-speed 2.0 USB
Wi-Fi Direct	Wireless network
HP Smart app	Wireless network
Near field communication (NFC)	Compatible NFC capable mobile device See Getting Started with Touch-to-Print (Near Field Communication) for more information.
Walk-Up USB Printing	Yes; PDF, JPEG, DOC (MS Word), PPT (MS PowerPoint)

The router must be configured to support 2.4GHz for this printer.

Many routers support both frequencies.

Assign a separately named SSID network to each frequency - Connect the printer to the SSID named network for the 2.4 band.

The password can be the same for both of the SSID named networks.

General Example - FYI only - Dual Band Network
