Hi @BrinaW ,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

I understand you are trying to change the Wi-Fi settings on your HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw printer, you'll need to enter the password for your printer's network settings. Here's how to proceed:
 

Access Printer's Control Panel:

  • On the printer's control panel, tap the Wireless icon or Setup (gear) icon.

Navigate to Wireless Settings:

  • Go to Wireless Settings or Network Setup, then select Wireless Setup Wizard.

Select Network:

  • Your printer will scan for available networks. Select your new Wi-Fi network from the list.

Enter Password:

  • When prompted, enter the password for your new Wi-Fi network. Make sure you enter it correctly, including any capital letters, numbers, or special characters.

Confirm and Connect:

  • Follow the prompts to confirm and connect to the new Wi-Fi network.

If you're encountering difficulties with the password or connection process, ensure the following:
 

Correct Password: Verify that you are entering the correct Wi-Fi password. It’s often helpful to double-check it by connecting another device to the same network.
 

Printer’s Firmware: Ensure that your printer's firmware is up-to-date. Sometimes updating the firmware can resolve connectivity issues. Update the firmware on an HP printer

 

Refer to this document: HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M277dw User manual

I hope this helps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
