Unable to connect to used HPC4795 printer

[chadaptos]

I've tried everthing. Either through Wifi or wired connection, my laptop cant see the printer. My internet provider does not allow WPS to wirelessly connect the printer. What can I do other than throwing the printer out?

- The computer is connected to the wireless network that you intend to install the printer on.

1. Open the HP printer software (From the computer desktop, click Start, select All apps, click HP, and then select the icon

with the printer’s name).
