Can not connect the printer Smart Tank 6001 to my PC or Phone. Message is " You can not use the device's built-in networking capabilities because these capabilities were disabled when the device was set up."

Get the latest HP App from the microsoft store

 

if that does not work then you need to reset the Wi-Fi

You may need to reset the printer: video here

Wi-Fi setup to router: video here

For Wi-Fi direct setup see page 36 click here.
This is useful if you cannot access the router or the router is using VPN and the printer is blocked.

Simple push button or WPS setup is described on page 19 of above User Manual

Hi BeemerBiker,

 

Thank you for your response. I tried resetting the printer... but still not able to "see" the printer on my phone (HP App).


Could you please reupload the link

"For Wi-Fi Direct setup see page 36 click here."

 

 

I print the HP Network Configuration Page

It says:

"Networking Capabilities are Not Available

You can not use the device's built-in networking capabilities because these capabilities were disabled when the device was set up. For more information, contact your network administrator or the person who set up the device."

 

My other question is resetting to factory defaults should reset the network?

 

Regards
