Product: HP DeskJet 2734e All-in-One Printer

Trying to connect my HP Deskjet 2734e printer on our macbook air/iphone 14/ Google pixel. 

We were able to connect to it fine few months ago. Same wifi setup since then. At some point of time , the printer disconnected from wifi. Trying to get it back on and I see error while connecting. Tried to delete the printer and set it up again. 

it fails to connect. it finds the printer to connect . But when clicked on it, it tries to connect but says "Cannot connect the printer to Wi-Fi. Connecting to your printer is taking longer than expected" .

It immediately throws this error without trying.

For WiFi direct setup watch video.
This is useful if there is no modem or you do not want to give someone access to your modem but you want to let them print something.

Simple push button or WPS setup is described on page 22 of Users Manual

Full service windows software


DeskJet Reference 2734e

Let me know if you have a flex system (WiFi boosters or repeaters) as the setup is much more complicated.
