Try the steps below to resolve the issue-
-
From the home screen of your printer control panel, touch the Wireless icon
. -
Touch the Setup icon
. -
Touch Restore Network Defaults or Restore Network Settings, and then touch Yes to confirm your selection.
-
After the default network settings are restored, touch the back arrow, touch Wireless Settings, and then touch Wireless Setup Wizard.
The printer searches for available networks.
-
Touch the name of your wireless network.
-
If your wireless network does not display in the list of wireless networks, touch Enter New Network Name, and then type the name of your wireless network.
NOTE:
Type the exact network name, including any uppercase and lowercase letters.
-
Type the WEP or WPA key (network password), and then touch Done.
If you do not know your network password, go to Find Your Wireless WEP, WPA, WPA2 Password..
Once the printer connects to the wireless network, the blue Wireless light on the control panel turns on solid.
Now, try accessing the EWS of the printer. If the issue persists, the only option left is to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
The reset instructions are specific for your printer and performing those steps on a different printer may brick the device.
I've sent you a private message with reset instructions, follow the reset instruction to perform a full reset and re-initialize the printer.
