HP DESKJET 2630
having problems with it since we had to have a new wifi router.
Doesn't seem to connect from pc/printer to the wireless wifi?
I have bought a new wifi adapter for my pc as the old one was damaged and thought that would help printer connect to wifi but it hasn't.
I have done numerous tests, reconnecting and cant seem to get anywhere with it.
The HP app shows the printer as offline and there's a 'setup' button i press it and nothing happens
Any ideas?
Thanks

Welcome to HP support community.
Use HP Print and Scan Doctor to check connectivity
Download HP Print and Scan Doctor.
-
Run HPPSdr.exe from the download location on your computer.
-
Once HP Print and Scan Doctor opens, click Start, and then select your printer.
-
If your printer in not in the list, turn it off and on, and then click Retry.
-
If there is a connection problem, follow the instructions in HP Print and Scan Doctor.
-
-
If a screen prompts you to turn on printer updates, click Yes.
-
If a screen prompts you to make your printer the default printer, click Yes.
-
Try to print.
Assign manual IP address and that should fix the issue.
- On the printer's control panel, press the Wireless button
and the Information button
at the same time.
- Both a Network Configuration Page and a Wireless Network Test Report print.
Setting a Static IP Address
Once you know your printer’s IP address, entering it is pretty easy. Here’s what you do:
- Run your Web browser.
- In the Web browser’s address bar, type the IP address of your printer and press Enter. Assuming you entered the right address, the HP printer control panel should appear.
- Click the Networking tab.
- Under Connections, click Wireless.
- Under IP Address Configuration, click Manual IP.
- Enter the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway in the appropriate boxes.
- Click Apply.
