My HP Color LaserJet Pro MFP M183fw will not print. We dont have very good wi-fi so we tried to connect with the USB but it still wouldnt help. It is ridiculous that i cant call and get and answer quickly. How can I set up printing without using the wi-fi?

@the303, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

I see that you would like to print via USB. Yes, this is possible.

 

Kindly follow the steps mentioned in this document - HP printer setup (USB cable)

Note: If you have an anti-virus, check if it is blocking the connection.

 

You may use the HP Smart app to print and scan from the computer.

For more info, refer to - HP printer setup (HP Smart app)

 

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.
