HP ENVY 6032 All-In-One Printer

Received new router but unable to connect existing printer to wifi and shows offline. Have tried various options but without success - probably a simple task but help needed. Thanks.

The printer supports 2.4GHz or 5GHz but not at the same time.

The printer does not "hop".

Dual Band Network

If you are running a dual band network,

If your router supports it,

 Create a separate SSID named network for each frequency (5GHz and 2.4GHz).

and

Connect the printer to the SSID network on the frequency / band you want it to use.

 

Reminder:  Some printers only support 2.4GHz

 

In general,

  • 2.4GHz is less fussy about obstacles and supports a longer distance between router and device (printer)
  • 5GHz is faster
