Ho Deskjet 3050a

After swapping out modem/router, I’m trying to reconnect my printer. However instead of connecting to my new network, it appears that the printer is showing as its own network? I’m not sure what’s going on exactly, but this seems wrong and isn’t functional. Do I uninstall this and try again? What should I do different?

This is what displays under the list of available networks and what my printer is connected to: HP-Setup-CO-Deskjet 3050a J611 (connected).

All help is appreciated. Just needed to upgrade the internet router, this is over my head. Thanks in advance!
