Product: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M479fdw

My M479 MFP Laserjet won't connect to my WPA2 network.  

 

There are many similar posts in this forum, I add my voice to the crowd.  This post is particularly good: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printers-Archive-Read-Only/HP-Wireless-Printers-cannot-connect-to-WPA2....

 

In our case, the network is a Unifi WIFI network running WPA2 with AES encryption.  The printer will not recognize it as an encrypted network,  even when I log in over ethernet and set the encryption settings and password by hand. 

 

Our solution was to make a standalone OPEN wifi network (using Unifi) that has a single entry MAV Access List. Needless to say this is a security risk.  

 

Please, @HP,  fix this WPA2 access problem.
