I changed Wi-Fi connection how to connect hp 135w to new Wi-Fi

[Dildardd]

How can I reconnect my HP 125w printer to a new Wi-Fi network? I recently moved and have a new Wi-Fi setup, but I’m having trouble connecting the printer. I’ve tried multiple solutions, but nothing seems to work. Why is this process so complicated?

Hi @Dildardd,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

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

Reconnecting your HP Laser MFP 135wg printer to a new Wi-Fi network can indeed be a bit frustrating, but here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get it connected.

Reset the Printer's Network Settings

This ensures that any old network settings are cleared.

1. Turn on the printer.
2. Restore default network settings:
   • On the printer control panel, press and hold the Wi-Fi button and the Cancel button simultaneously for about 5 seconds. The Wi-Fi indicator should blink to show it’s ready to connect.

Connect the Printer to Your New Wi-Fi

You can use one of the following methods:

HP Smart App (Recommended)

1. Download the HP Smart app on your computer or smartphone (if not already installed).
   • For Windows/Mac: HP Smart App Download.
   • For Android/iOS: Available in the app store.
2. Open the app and sign in (or create an HP account if you don’t have one).
3. Click on Add Printer and follow the instructions.
   • The app will guide you to connect your printer to your new Wi-Fi network.
   • You may need your Wi-Fi password.

WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup)

1. Ensure your router has a WPS button.
2. On the printer, press and hold the Wi-Fi button until it blinks.
3. Press the WPS button on your router within 2 minutes.
   • The printer will connect automatically, and the Wi-Fi light should stop blinking.

Verify the Connection

• Print a Network Configuration Report:
  • Press and hold the Resume button (or Cancel button) until the printer prints the report.
  • Check the report to ensure the printer is connected to the correct network.

Reinstall the Printer on Your Devices

After reconnecting the printer to Wi-Fi:

1. On your computer, open Printers & Scanners in the system settings.
2. Remove the old instance of the printer.
3. Click Add a Printer and select your HP Laser MFP 135wg from the list.

If these steps don’t work or you encounter issues like the printer not appearing in the app:

1. Restart your printer, router, and device.
2. Make sure your device is on the same Wi-Fi network.
3. Disable any VPNs or firewalls temporarily while setting up the printer.

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
