I would like to change the Wi-Fi channel that is used by Wireless Direct between my Lenovo laptop and my HP Officejet Pro 8600 Premium to reduce interference from other nearby users of Ch. 6 in my condo complex. (I am not using a wireless router setup to connect to the printer.)
Is this possible? If so, how?

I am using a wireless modem for my Internet connection.
When I launch Passmark WirelessMon (a wi-fi network monitor), it shows my connection to the printer on Ch. 6.
Perhaps I need to make the channel change on my laptop, and not on the printer?

Ah... ok. You are using the Wireless Direct with the printer. You computer is wireless to channel 6. That is all you can do unless you changed the router's wireless channel which will only automatically switch on your computer.
