Hi @Oijnh999,

Welcome to HP Support Community.

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

If you’re having trouble turning on the Wi-Fi on your printer, here are some general steps to troubleshoot and enable Wi-Fi. The exact steps can vary depending on your printer model, so it’s helpful to consult your printer’s manual or user guide for model-specific instructions. Below are the general steps you can follow:

**1. Check Printer Status

• Power On:
  • Ensure the printer is powered on and not in sleep mode. Press the power button if needed.
• Check Display:
  • If your printer has a display screen, navigate through the menus to find Wi-Fi settings.

**2. Enable Wi-Fi on the Printer

Using Printer Control Panel:

• Access Menu:
  • On the printer’s control panel, locate and press the Wireless or Wi-Fi button. If there isn’t a dedicated Wi-Fi button, you may need to navigate through the menu options.
• Select Wireless Setup:
  • Go to Setup or Network Settings and select Wireless Setup Wizard or similar option.
• Choose Network:
  • Follow the prompts to select your Wi-Fi network and enter the Wi-Fi password if required.

Using Printer’s Web Interface (if applicable):

• Find IP Address:
  • Print a network configuration page from the printer’s control panel to find its IP address.
• Access Web Interface:
  • Enter the IP address into a web browser on your computer. This will open the printer’s web interface.
• Configure Wi-Fi Settings:
  • Navigate to the network or wireless settings section and configure the Wi-Fi settings.

**3. Restart Devices

• Restart Printer:
  • Turn off the printer, wait for 60 seconds, and then turn it back on

I hope this helps.

Take care and have a good day.
