Its specs

         https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c04704159

 

which says it has 802.11 b/g/n – 2.4 GHz networks only. Therefore it can't "see" 5.0GHz networks.

Please allow your wifi router to broadcast DUAL (both) bands which are 2.4GHz and 5.0GHz. Your printer will "see" 2.4GHz SSID and allow you to connect. Computer may connect to 5G network but they should know each other.

 

Regards.
