Wifi Reset issue on LS Jetpro MFP M29W

[Subh1806]

I recently switched to fiber optic and ever since have not been able to print wireless. Have tried all possible solutions. The WiFi light keeps blinking blue. HP connects the printer through temp wifi network and subsequently errors out stating device and printer needs to be in the same network but does not pull my network at all. I am hitting a wall Ghere. Any experts that can help?

Hi @Subh1806,

Welcome to the HP Support Community

I understand you are facing a connectivity issue with your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M29w Printer. Not to worry I will help you to get a resolution to resolve the issue.

To assist you better:

• Is the blue Wi-Fi light solid on the printer? ( if the Wi-Fi Light is blinking then please re-connect the printer back to your Wi-Fi router - Restore Wi-Fi setup mode on your HP printer, Once you restore the network to defaults, then please follow the instructions on this link to connect the printer back to your PC.)
• How far is the printer located from the WiFi router?
• Do you have a dual-band router?
• 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 networks.
• Are you connected to any VPN?

While you respond to that, Let's perform a power drain: 

• With the printer turned on, disconnect the power cord from the rear of the printer and also unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
• Remove USB cable, if present.
• Wait for 2-3 minutes, press and hold the power button on your printer for about 30 seconds to remove any additional charge.
• Now plug back the power cable straight to a wall outlet without any surge protector or an extension cord (This is important) and then plug back the power cord to the printer.
• Turn on the printer and wait till warm-up period finishes and the printer is idle

Restore Wi-Fi setup mode on the printer

• Prepare a printer for a Wi-Fi connection by restoring the Wi-Fi setup mode.
• When the settings are restored, the printer enters Wi-Fi setup mode for about two hours, making it discoverable during the HP software installation.
• Most inkjet printers without a touchscreen: Press and hold the Wireless and Cancel buttons until the Power button flashes, and then wait for the Wireless light to flash.
• Once you restore the network to defaults, then please follow the instructions on this link to connect the printer back to your PC.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
