I accidentally deleted my printer from my HP app. How do I get it back?

Thank you for responding. I have not made my problem clear. My printer is connected to my network and I can print with it. I have the HP app (used to be HPSmart). My printer was set up and I could see it in my devices. Somehow I deleted the printer from the HP app and I am trying to get it back. I found a solution on the HP support web page. It says to do a factory reset on the printer. I don't know how to do that and the instructions I found didn't work. I was hoping for another way to restore the printer to the app. It won't let me add it as a new device. I have given up. I can print. I just can't use the HP app.

This video shows how to use the new HP App for HP Printers. This shows how to use the updated HP App to setup the printers in detail. The new HP Printer App is easy to use with all HP Printers. This looks different than HP Smart App but functions are similar.

Your solution refers to an iPhone. I need help with a Macbook Air.
