@DDBDDS, Welcome to HP Support Community,
Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue
Here are a few potential solutions to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:
Check Wi-Fi Signal and Router
Distance from Router: Make sure your printer is within a good range of your Wi-Fi router. Too far from the router can cause weak or intermittent connections.
Wi-Fi Interference: Other devices, walls, and metal objects can interfere with Wi-Fi signals. Try to move your router or printer to a more open area.
Restart Router: Sometimes simply restarting the router can resolve connection issues.
Wi-Fi Frequency Band: The DeskJet 2700 series only supports 2.4GHz Wi-Fi (not 5GHz). Ensure your router is broadcasting on 2.4GHz, as some newer routers use 5GHz by default, which the printer might not support.
Network Issues or IP Conflict
Static IP: Try assigning a static IP address to your printer in your router settings. This can help avoid any IP conflicts.
DHCP Settings: Ensure that the printer is obtaining an IP address via DHCP (which is usually the default setting), or set a static IP within your router settings.
Run HP Smart:
- Download and run the HP Smart. Follow the prompts to diagnose and fix common printing issues.
- Refer: Use Diagnose & Fix in HP Smart to repair common printing issues (Windows, macOS) | HP® Support
Update Printer Firmware (Update the firmware on an HP printer | HP® Support)
- Go to the HP Customer Support - Software and Driver Downloads page. Enter your printer model number and search for the latest firmware update. Follow the instructions to download and install the firmware update.
I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
