Setup wifi system with WAP3 security setting and printer shows network as "NO ENCRYPTION"/not password protected (no lock icon) and thus will not connect . When I switch to WAP2 it does show as password protected, however most other devices and cell phone require WAP3 for optimal security. What gives?

Welcome to the HP support community.

 

Is your Wifi connection password protected?

Did you connect other devices to this WiFi connection and check if that works fine?
