I just bought an OfficeJet 5260 printer.  I've noticed that the date and time are not correctly set.  I've looked through all the options on screen and in HP Smart but cannot locate an option for setting time.  I would assume the printer would get it's

time from a network time server or my home network, but all my other devices show the correct time and date.  Can anyone

suggest a solution?  I want to use the auto on/off feature but it won't work right unless the time is right.  Thanks.

Well, that was simple.  Since I did the setup online I did not realize I could swipe to the left on the touch screen and find

the preferences option..Thanks very much.
