Hi @BookNerd68,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I understand you want to reconnect your HP printer to the internet after setting up a new modem. Follow these steps to try:
For HP Printers with a Touchscreen:
- Turn on the printer and make sure paper is loaded.
- On the printer's control panel, go to:
- Wireless or Network Settings > Wireless Setup Wizard.
- Select your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) from the list.
- Enter your Wi-Fi password when prompted.
- Wait for the printer to connect. A solid blue wireless light usually indicates success.
For HP Printers Without a Touchscreen:
You can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) or the HP Smart app:
Option 1: Using WPS (if your router supports it)
- Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on the printer until it starts flashing.
- Within 2 minutes, press the WPS button on your router.
- Wait for the wireless light to stop flashing and become solid.
Option 2: Using the HP Smart App
- Download and install the HP Smart app on your phone or computer.
- Open the app and select Set up a new printer.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the printer to your Wi-Fi.
I hope this helps.
Take care, and have an amazing day!
