Hi @Pahoia,

Welcome to the HP Support Community!

Thanks for reaching out!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

I understand your HP LaserJet M234sdw is no longer connecting wirelessly after changing your Starlink Wi-Fi password. Let’s go through a few steps to get it reconnected.

1. Confirm Wi-Fi Password

Make sure you’re entering the new Wi-Fi password exactly as set (case-sensitive, check spaces or special characters).

Test it by connecting another device (like a phone) to confirm the password works.

2. Reset Printer Network Settings

On the printer’s control panel, press and hold the Wireless button for about 5–10 seconds until the wireless light blinks.

This restores the printer’s wireless settings to default.

3. Reconnect to Wi-Fi

From the printer control panel, go to Wireless Setup Wizard (in the menu, under Network or Wireless settings).

Select your Starlink network, enter the new password, and confirm connection.

The wireless light should stay solid once connected.

4. Re-add Printer to PC

On your computer, go to Settings → Devices → Printers & Scanners → Add a printer.

Wait for your HP LaserJet to appear, then select it.

If it doesn’t show up, choose “The printer that I want isn’t listed” and enter the printer’s IP address (you can print a Network Configuration page from the printer to see the IP).

5. Restart Devices

Restart your PC, printer, and Starlink router to refresh the network.

6. Use HP Smart App

Open the HP Smart app on your PC or phone.

Choose Set up a new printer → follow the prompts to reconnect it to Wi-Fi.

7. If Still Not Connecting

Make sure your router is broadcasting on 2.4 GHz (HP LaserJet M234sdw does not support 5 GHz Wi-Fi).

If your Starlink router combines both 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz under one SSID, try temporarily splitting them or moving the printer closer to the router.

I hope this helps.
