Hi @KRB8,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

To change your HP DeskJet 3050 All-in-One Printer to a new Wi-Fi network, follow these steps.

 

Prepare Your Printer

  • Ensure your printer is powered on.

Reconnect to Wi-Fi Using the Printer's Control Panel

  • On the printer’s control panel, press the Wireless button (this may look like a wireless signal icon).
  • The Wireless light should start blinking.
  • If your printer does not have a wireless button, you can access the wireless setup via the Setup or Wireless Settings menu on the printer's control panel.

Initiate Wireless Setup

  • Press the Setup button (gear icon).
  • Use the arrow keys to scroll to Network Setup or Wireless Setup Wizard (depending on your printer's model).
  • Select Wireless Setup Wizard.

Select Your New Wi-Fi Network

  • The printer will search for available networks. Once the list of networks appears, select your new Wi-Fi network from the list.
  • Enter the new Wi-Fi password when prompted, using the printer’s control panel to type it in.

Confirmation

  • After entering the password, the printer will attempt to connect to the new network. When the connection is successful, the wireless light should stop blinking and stay solid, indicating that the printer is connected to the new Wi-Fi.

Reinstall Printer on Your Devices (if needed)

  • If necessary, reinstall the printer on your computer or mobile device by adding the printer through the operating system’s printer settings or HP Smart app.


That should be all! If you run into any issues, you can also reset the printer's network settings by holding the Wireless button and the Cancel button at the same time for five seconds, and then go through the wireless setup process again.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
