In the printer display chose the wifi icon.

Make sure the printer is connected to wifi and notice the IP address - e.g. IP:192.168.1.3

Then type the IP address you read into the browser address bar like 192.168.1.3

You should now be connected to the embedded webserver of your printer.

Now in the embedded webserver check that the firmware is up to date.

 

If you still cannot print then remove and reinstall the HP print driver in Windows.
