Wireless radio on HP Deskjet 3050A - J611

[mruttle]

Is this where I should be?? I also dont see a wirless network with my printers name on it.

The Wirless Network Test results are:

Wireless radio is turned off (but the printers wireless button if flashing blue...)

Diognostics results: Wireless on: fail

wireless working/ signal quality: not run

Network Ssid found: not run

wirless networks detected 2

everything elce not run

Authentication Type WPA-PSK

Using a D-link DIR-835A1

mruttle,

If you are looking to perform the alternate step to get the new network information, then no.

The core of the issue is that the printer indicates the wireless radio is off and there is no network name for your printer.  The SSID of the printer, when the network is present, should have HP in the name making it standout from other networks.  

On the printer, go to Wireless>Settings>Restore Network Defaults.  Accept the prompt to reset the default settings.

Most printers will disable the wireless radio as a default setting.  Press the wireless button again.  If it says turn on in the lower right corner, go ahead and select that option.

Now, go to the computer and search for a wireless network.  Is there a network name that has HP in it or reflects your model printer?  If so, connect to that network and open a web browser and go to 192.168.223.1.  From there, the earlier steps should work.

Let me know what happens.

How do I turn on the wireless printer for this unit?

thank you Cloud Strider you are the best. I have tried for several months, several being great than 6 to resolve this problem. Your process was clear and very step by step. Nothing sounds better than the clickety clack of your wireless printer doing its thing when you are in another room or on another floor.

Hi every one!

I have had my HP Deskjet 3050A - J611 wireless printer set up too times before on two different networks.

But I have now moved and deed to set it up again....

Originally through the push button method it was still trying to connect to my old SSID so I set every thing back to original defaults.

But now I am getting an error code saying I need to Turn on my Wireless radio on the printer.
To the best of my knowledge i have: Setup>Wireless>Wireless settings> wireless on/off

Any ideas?
