Product: Envy 7640 or Envy 7855
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I am using Win 10 64 Bit and a Chrome Browser. Can you; how do you print hard-wired and also on Wi-Fi? My computers are hardwired to my router and can't see the printer unless I switch them to WiFi.

Hi,

You should see the printer as long as both are connected to the same network, either wirelessly or wired (assuming you refer to the same network, and not to two different networks)

 

What is the IP Address of your printer? click the Wireless icon to find it out.

 

What is the IP Address of your computer when connected to the wired network? (Right-click the Network icon then Open network and internet settings, click the Properties button and scroll down to find the IP or IPv4 Address of your PC)

 

What is the IP Address of your computer when connected to the wireless network? (Right-click the wireless icon then Open network and internet settings, click the Properties button and scroll down to find the IP or IPv4 Address of your PC)

Hi ShlomiL,

My HP Printer, our cell phones while at home, my wife's personal laptop on the other side of the house, and our TVs are all connected via WiFi on my private network. The signal comes from my FIOS Router. My personal PC and my work laptop are

also in that network wirelessly because that is the only way I could figure out how to print from my computers. However, the FIOS signal strength is much better if I use the hardwired connection to the router. If I do that, the computers can't see the printer. Is there a way to share the WiFI printer to the computers so that I can print without changing settings every time I want to print from those computers? I have 64 bit Win 10 OS and am using a Chrome Browser. Thank you.
