Hi @GYP27,

 

Welcome to The HP Support Community.  

 

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

 

I understand you are facing an issue with connectin your HP DeskJet Ink Advantage 3635 All-In-One Printer to Wi-Fi without a display, you can use the HP Smart app or the WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) method. Here are the steps for both methods:
 

Method 1: Using HP Smart App

Download and Install HP Smart App:

  • On your Windows 11 computer, open the Microsoft Store.
  • Search for "HP Smart" and download the app.

Prepare the Printer:

  • Make sure your printer is turned on and has paper loaded.
  • Ensure the printer is in a ready state (not printing or showing errors).

Connect the Printer to Wi-Fi:

  • Open the HP Smart app on your computer.
  • Click on the plus sign (+) to add a new printer.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the printer to your Wi-Fi network. The app will guide you through the setup process, including connecting to your Wi-Fi.

Method 2: Using WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) Connect an HP printer using Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS)

Prepare the Printer and Router:

  • Ensure your printer is turned on.
  • Locate the WPS button on your Wi-Fi router. It is usually labeled as "WPS" or has a symbol of two arrows forming a circle.

Enable WPS on the Printer:

  • Press and hold the Wireless button (``) on your printer until the Wireless light starts blinking. This indicates the printer is in WPS mode.

Activate WPS on the Router:

  • Within two minutes, press the WPS button on your router.
  • The Wireless light on the printer will stop blinking and remain solid once the connection is successful.

Troubleshooting Tips

  • Ensure Wi-Fi Signal: Make sure your printer and computer are within the range of your Wi-Fi network.
  • Router Compatibility: Verify that your router supports WPS if you are using that method.
  • Reboot Devices: Restart your printer, computer, and router if the connection fails.
  • Update Firmware: Ensure your printer firmware is up to date. You can update the firmware using the HP Smart app. Update the firmware on an HP printer
