Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

  • What's the Wi-Fi light status on the Printer(Blinking or Steady)? 

  • Are you trying to print from an Android or Apple phone? 

  • What seems to be the exact issue with your HP Product today?  

Keep me posted for further assistance.
