Hi @MissTee313,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

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

To reconnect your printer to Wi-Fi, follow these steps. The exact process may vary slightly depending on your printer model, but the general approach is similar.

1. Ensure Printer is Powered On

• Make sure your printer is turned on and in a ready state.

2. Access the Printer’s Control Panel

• On the printer’s control panel or touchscreen, navigate to the Wireless or Network settings menu.

3. Connect Using Wireless Setup Wizard

• Open Wireless Setup Wizard:
  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8025e: On the printer's control panel, select Setup (gear icon), then Network Setup or Wireless Setup Wizard.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to select your Wi-Fi network and enter the Wi-Fi password.

4. Use HP Smart App (Alternative Method)

• Install HP Smart App:
  • Download and install the HP Smart app on your computer or mobile device from the HP website or your device’s app store.
• Add Printer:
  • Open the HP Smart app, click on Add Printer, and follow the prompts to connect your printer to your Wi-Fi network. The app will guide you through the setup process.

5. Check for Printer Connectivity

• Print Network Configuration Page:
  • Many printers have an option to print a network configuration page from the control panel. This page will show you the current network status and IP address of the printer.
• Verify Connection:
  • Ensure the printer is connected to the correct Wi-Fi network and that the network settings are correct.

6. Reinstall Printer Software (If Needed)

• Remove and Reinstall Printer:
  • On your computer, go to Settings > Devices > Printers & Scanners (Windows) or System Preferences > Printers & Scanners (Mac).
  • Remove the printer if it’s listed, then click Add a printer or scanner to reinstall it, following the setup instructions.

7. Restart Devices:

• Turn off the printer, unplug it from the power source, wait about 60 seconds, then plug it back in and turn it on:
  • Restart your Wi-Fi router to ensure it’s functioning correctly.:
  • Sometimes a restart of your computer can resolve connection issues.

8. Troubleshoot Network Issues:

• Make sure your printer is trying to connect to the correct Wi-Fi network, especially if you have multiple networks:
  • Ensure the printer is within range of your Wi-Fi router to receive a strong signal.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
