My HP cm1415 will not connect to Mediacom Xtream Modem. This modem requres WP2-AES.

I had no issues on Mediacom Network connecting my HP CM1417 Printer wirelessly.

Mediacom switched out my Modem to Xtreme which requires WPA2-AES

How I change this setting on my Printer?

@abigdogdad, Welcome to the HP Support Community!

HP LaserJet Pro CM1415 printer can work on WPA/WPA-2 encryption.

Make sure the printer and the MAC are connected to the same wireless network.

This printer supports only 2.4GHz network.

To connect the printer to the wireless network

1. From the home screen of your printer control panel, touch the Wireless icon .

2. Touch the Setup icon .

3. Touch Restore Network Defaults or Restore Network Settings, and then touch Yes to confirm your selection.

4. After the default network settings are restored, touch the back arrow, touch Wireless Settings, and then touch Wireless Setup Wizard.

   The printer searches for available networks.

5. Touch the name of your wireless network.

6. Type the WEP or WPA key (network password), and then touch Done.

   If you do not know your network password, go to Find Your Wireless WEP, WPA, WPA2 Password..

   Once the printer connects to the wireless network, the blue Wireless light on the control panel turns on solid.

Install the printer on the MAC using AirPrint driver

Please ensure that the printer is up to date with its firmware and Mac is up to date with its software. If you are unsure you may use the links below to update the printer firmware and Mac software:
