Welcome to the HP Community --

Not sure whether "uninstall" removes or corrects a connection setup.

User Guide

Read Chapter 6 - Configure your printer - Starting on Page 24

If you can do so,

Connect to the printer using the Embedded Web Server (EWS),

Check / Configure the connection details, including the SSID named network connection in Advanced.

Consider connecting to the SSID named network for 2.4GHz.

Even if the printer supported 5GHz, the 5GHz connection is faster but not as tolerant of distance or obstacles.

EWS > HP Document / How-to

Use the HP printer Embedded Web Server (EWS)

NOTE:  Find printer IP address
