Hi @Jane227,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

It sounds like you're having trouble reconnecting your HP LaserJet P6061dn printer to your monitor. Here are some steps you can try.

 

  • Check Connections: Ensure that the printer is properly connected to your computer via USB cable or network connection, depending on how it's set up.
  • Restart Devices: Sometimes a simple restart can resolve connectivity issues. Try restarting both your computer and the printer.
  • Update Drivers: Make sure you have the latest drivers for your printer installed on your computer. You can usually download them from the HP website.
  • Check Printer Status: On your computer, check the printer's status to see if it's recognized and not showing any errors. You can usually find this in the Devices and Printers section of your computer's settings.
  • Reconfigure Printer: If the printer still isn't connecting, you may need to reconfigure its network settings or reconnect it to your computer using the installation software provided by HP.
  • Reset Printer: As a last resort, you can try resetting the printer to its factory settings. Refer to the printer's manual for instructions on how to do this.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
