Hi @Efrateh,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

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

 

To connect your HP printer to a new Wi-Fi network, you'll typically need to follow these steps.

 

  • Access Printer Settings: Start by accessing the control panel of your HP printer. Depending on the model, there may be a touchscreen display or physical buttons.
  • Navigate to Network Settings: Look for the "Settings" or "Setup" menu on the printer's display. Navigate to the network settings or Wi-Fi setup option.
  • Choose Wireless Setup Wizard: Select the option to set up a new wireless connection. This may be labeled as "Wireless Setup Wizard" or something similar.
  • Select Your New Network: The printer will search for available Wi-Fi networks. When it detects your new network, select it from the list.
  • Enter Wi-Fi Password: You'll likely be prompted to enter the password for your new Wi-Fi network. Use the printer's keypad or touchscreen to input the password.
  • Complete Setup: Once you've entered the password, the printer will attempt to connect to the new network. This process may take a minute or two. Once connected, you should see a confirmation message on the printer's display.
  • Test Connection: After connecting to the new network, print a test page or try printing a document from your computer or mobile device to ensure that the connection is working properly.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
