Hi @jimeedeez, Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
Here are some steps to troubleshoot and fix the WiFi connection issue with your HP OfficeJet Pro 8610:
Restart Everything
- Power off the printer, router, and computer.
- Wait 1-2 minutes and turn them back on.
Check WiFi Signal & Network
- Ensure your WiFi is working properly.
- The printer should be close to the router (within 6-8 feet for best connectivity).
- Make sure the router is not using 5GHz—this printer only supports 2.4GHz networks.
Reconnect the Printer to WiFi
- On the printer's touchscreen, go to:
Setup (⚙️) > Network > Wireless Setup Wizard - Select your WiFi network and enter the correct password.
Restore network settings:
1. From the printer control panel, touch and slide your finger across the screen, touch Setup, and then touch Network Setup.
2. Touch Restore Network Defaults, and then touch Yes. A message appears stating that the network defaults have been restored.
3. Touch OK.
4. Print the network configuration page and verify that the network settings have been reset.
I hope this helps.
Use the HP Smart app: Download and install the HP Smart app on your computer or mobile device. This app can help you connect your printer to the network.
