Method 1: Using the Printer Control Panel

Access the Control Panel:

• On the printer's home screen, go to the Network or Wireless menu.

Select Wireless Settings:

• Navigate to Wireless Setup or Wireless Settings.

Change the Wireless Network Name:

• Look for an option like Network Name (SSID) or Change Wireless Network Name.
• Select it and enter the new network name you want to use.

Save Changes:

• Confirm the changes and save the settings.

Reconnect to the Network:

• If necessary, reconnect to the network using the new SSID.

Method 2: Using HP Smart App

Open the HP Smart App:

Access the Printer's Web Interface:

• You may need to log in (default credentials are often "admin" for username and "admin" or blank for password).
