HP Deskjet 2700

When I bought my HP Deskjet 2700 two years ago I deactivated the Wifi-Direct and never had any issues with that option. But since I updated the firmware of my printer, Wifi-Direct is activated again each time I unplug the printer. Is-it possible to return to the original firmware?

Hi @MihaelK,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

 

I understand that you are facing issues with Wi-Fi-direct. I'd like to help!

 

Please follow the steps below and keep me posted if anything. 

 

The EWS page can be accessed via your printer software. Within the Print tab, click the HP Device Toolbox icon, that opens its EWS page. Within the Wireless tab select HP Wi-Fi Direct and from there disable the feature. Any wireless signal should no longer be shown.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.


Please click “Accepted Solution” if you feel my post solved your issue, it will help others find the solution. Click the “Kudos/Thumbs Up" on the bottom right to say “Thanks” for helping!
