My HP laserjet M140we is no longer connecting to my computer. The blue wifi symbol keeps flashing.

[JohnGL]

The blue wifi symbol is flashing blue. I cannot reconnect the printer to my computer. The help assistants cannot find a solution. It occassionally does this, but turning the printer off and then on usually fixes it. I have turned it off many times, pushed the button, searched the help files, tried the help assistant. Nothing is working. Please, how do I connect my printer to my computer again?

Hi @JohnGL,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I understand that you are facing connectivity issues. I’d like to help!

Make sure, your printer and your device are on the same network as 2.4GHZ only. (Current OS version)

Meanwhile, Check for network and connection issues if you cannot print or scan with a wireless HP printer.

Restart devices

• Restart your computer or mobile device, printer, and router to clear any error states.
• Disconnect your computer or mobile device from the network name (SSID), and then reconnect it to the same network name your printer is connected to.
• If the printer is available and has a ready status, the issue is resolved. You do not need to continue troubleshooting.
• Press the Power button to turn off the printer. If the printer does not turn off, disconnect the power cord from the printer and from the power source.
• Turn off the computer or mobile device that the printer was set up with.
• Restart the router.
• Reconnect the power cord to the printer and to a wall outlet.
• NOTE:
• HP recommends plugging the printer directly into a wall outlet.
• Turn on the computer or mobile device.
• Check the connection to make sure the same network is used by the printer and the device.
• Computer or mobile device: Open the list of available networks and make sure it is connected to the correct network.
• Printer: Check the Wireless light on the control panel. If it is solid blue the printer is connected.
