I have a wired pc and wanted to be able to print to my wireless printer.  Preference would be to have the printer placed elsewhere in the house away from the pc.  So the goal is to be able to print to the wireless printer from the wired pc or from other wireless devices.

 

After completing initial setup of the printer using the HP Smart app on my phone, I had no issues printing  via wired or wireless.  This seems to only work for a short time, possibly only until the printer auto shuts off.

 

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

@K1NJO, Welcome to the HP Support Community! I’m here to help.

 

I understand the printer goes offline after it enters sleep mode. Assign a static IP address to the printer to resolve this issue.

  • Obtain the IP address of the printer – You can touch the “wireless” icon on the printer control panel to obtain the IP address.
  • Type the IP address at the top of your web browser to obtain the printer EWS page on your computer.
  • If you get any security notification, click on show details/advanced and 'proceed to this website'.
  • Go to "Network" tab - General - Select "Network protocols" - Select "Enable IPv4 only" (or similar) - Apply the settings.
  • Go to the “Network” tab – Click on “Wireless (802.11) – Then click on “Network address (IPv4)
  • Click on the radio button which says “Manual IP” and then click “Suggest a manual IP address” to give a manual IP address to your printer.
  • Click on the radio button which says “Manual DNS Server” and under manual preferred type 8.8.8.8 and under manual alternate type 8.8.4.4 (This is Google DNS server address)

Hope this helps! Let me know how it goes.

The suggestion did not help; however I did try something else which worked.  I took the IP of the printer and manually added the printer to my desktop.
