Can someone direct me on why I am unable to print anything on my deskjet 2600. I think it's WiFi connection problem since the blue WiFi light is always blinking. I performed all steps from the website like, restarting the router,restarting printer, pressing the wireless and setting button simultaneously to check the error message ( which shows me that the wifi is connected)

@Antony05, Welcome to the HP Support Community!
If the wireless light is blinking, it means the printer is not connected to a network.
Try making a standalone copy and check if that works. By this, we can conclude if this is a hardware or a driver issue.
Use the WPS method as shown in this document to connect the printer to the wireless network.
- Make sure the printer and the PC are connected to the same wireless network.
- This printer supports only 2.4GHz network. So, the PC should be on the 2.4GHz network.
- If you have a Dual-band router and both 2.4GHz and 5GHz networks share the same name/SSID, the printer will not be able to connect to the network. In this case, contact your Internet service provider to assign different names to both the networks.
Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
