Good Day
I just changed networks and need to setup my HP Deskjet 3515 to the new network but I cannot find my USB cable.

Thank You

Hello @GatZza,
Welcome to the HP support forums.
I understand that you are trying to put your Deskjet 3515 onto your wireless network without a router.
I would like to help.
I have taken the following information from the Printers Manual.
To get started with Wireless Direct print
1. To use Wireless Direct, you need to turn on Wireless Direct from the control panel, and get the Wireless
Direct name and password if you have Wireless Direct security on:
a. From the Home screen, touch Wireless and then select Settings.
b. If the display shows that Wireless Direct is Off, select Wireless Direct and then select On (No
Security) or On (With Security).
NOTE: HP recommends that you turn on security for Wireless Direct. If you turn on security, only
users with the password will be able to connect wirelessly to the printer. If you turn off security,
anyone with a Wi-Fi device within Wi-Fi range of the printer will be able to connect to the printer.
c. Select Display Name to display the Wireless Direct name.
d. Select Display Password to display the Wireless Direct password if you have the Wireless Direct
security on.
2. From your wireless computer or mobile device, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wireless
Direct name, for example: HP-Print-XX-Deskjet 3510 series. If you have Wireless Direct security on, enter
the Wireless Direct password when prompted. Then print as you normally do from your computer or mobile
device.
Open the embedded Web server via Wireless Direct
1. From the home screen, press the Wireless button and then select Settings.
2. If the display shows that Wireless Direct is Off, select Wireless Direct and then select On (No Security) or
On (With Security).
3. From your wireless computer, turn wireless on, search for and connect to the Wireless Direct name, for
example: HP-Print-XX-Deskjet 3510 series. If you have Wireless Direct security on, enter the Wireless
Direct password when prompted.
4. In a supported Web browser on your computer, type the following address: http://192.168.223.1.
Once you reach teh Printers EWS, you should see an option to run the Wireless Setup Wizard.
Run the Wizard and follow the prompts.
