Hi @CB303,

Welcome to the HP Support Community. 

I'd be happy to help you! 

To change the network on your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw after getting a new internet server, you need to connect the printer to the new Wi-Fi network. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you through the process:

Step 1: Prepare Your Network Information

Before you start, make sure you have the following information:

• Network name (SSID)
• Network password (WPA/WPA2 key)

Step 2: Connect the Printer to the New Network

Turn on the Printer:

• Ensure your printer is turned on and in a ready state.

Access the Printer Control Panel:

• On the printer control panel, navigate to the Setup menu by pressing the Setup button (usually a wrench icon).

Navigate to Network Settings:

• Use the arrow keys to find and select Network Setup or Network.
• Select Wireless Menu.

Run Wireless Setup Wizard:

• Select Wireless Setup Wizard.
• The printer will search for available wireless networks.

Select Your Network:

• From the list of available networks, select your new network (SSID).
• If your network does not appear, ensure it's broadcasting and within range, then refresh the list.

Enter Network Password:

• Enter the network password using the control panel's keypad.
• Confirm the password and proceed.

Wait for Connection:

• The printer will attempt to connect to the new network.
• Once connected, a confirmation message will appear.

Hi @CB303,

Please find the next set of steps below. 

Step 3: Update Printer Settings on Your Computer

Reinstall Printer Drivers (if necessary):

• If your computer had the printer installed with the old network settings, you might need to reinstall the printer drivers.
• Go to the HP Support page and enter your printer model (HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw).
• Download and install the latest drivers for Windows 10 (64-bit).

Add the Printer to Your Computer:

• Open Settings on your computer.
• Go to Devices > Printers & scanners.
• Select Add a printer or scanner.
• Wait for your printer to appear in the list, select it, and click Add device.

Step 4: Verify Printer Functionality

1. Print a Test Page:
   • Print a test page to ensure your printer is correctly connected to the new network and functioning properly.
   • You can do this from the printer's control panel or through the printer settings on your computer.

Additional Tips:

• Restart Devices: Sometimes, restarting your printer, computer, and router can help resolve connection issues.
• Check Firewall Settings: Ensure your firewall or antivirus software is not blocking the printer from connecting to the network.
• Static IP Address: If your network has specific requirements, you may need to assign a static IP address to the printer through the router's settings.

By following these steps, your HP LaserJet Pro MFP M127fw should be successfully connected to your new network.
