English Set up wireless (802.11) communication Step 2: Test the wireless connection To test the wireless connection and make sure it is working properly, complete the following steps: 1. Make sure the printer is turned on and paper is loaded in the tray. 2. Press (Wireless) button and (Resume) button simultaneously. The printer prints a report with the results of the test. If the test fails, review the report for information on how to fix the problem and rerun the test. For additional troubleshooting information, see "Wireless (802.11) setup problems" on page 11. Change the connection type If you have installed the HP software and connected your printer using a connection, such as USB or network connection, you can change to a different connection any time you want. Note: If you are changing to a wireless connection, make sure that an Ethernet cable has not been connected to the printer. Connecting an Ethernet cable turns off the printer's wireless capabilities. You might be prompted to temporarily connect a USB cable during the setup process. Follow the instructions for your operating system. Windows 1. On the printer control panel, press and hold the (Wireless) button and the (Cancel) button for three seconds. 2.
