Solve wireless network problems

Check the following information to resolve wireless network issues.

Introduction

Use the troubleshooting information to help resolve issues.

NOTE:

To determine whether HP NFC, Wi-Fi, BLE, or other wireless printing capabilities are enabled on the

printer, print a conﬁguration page from the printer control panel.

NOTE:

If you have been experiencing intermittent loss of network connectivity, ﬁrst update the printer

ﬁrmware. For instructions on how to update the printer ﬁrmware, go to

http://support.hp.com

, search for your

printer, and then search on “update the ﬁrmware.”

Wireless connectivity checklist

Use the checklist to help resolve wireless connection issues.

●

For printers that do not support simultaneous wired and wireless connections, verify that the network cable

is not connected.

●

Verify that the printer and the wireless router are turned on and have power. Also make sure that the

wireless radio in the printer is turned on. (The wireless network indicator is solid when the printer is

connected to a wireless network, and blinking when it is searching for a wireless network.)

●

Verify that the service set identiﬁer (SSID) is correct:

–

For a wireless connection to your network, conﬁrm that your mobile device is connecting to the

correct router/access point.

–

For a Wi-Fi Direct connection, print a conﬁguration page to determine the printer’s SSID.

If you are not sure that the SSID is correct, run the wireless setup again.

●

With secured networks, verify that the security information is correct. If the security information is

incorrect, run the wireless setup again.

●

If the wireless network is working correctly, try accessing other computers on the wireless network. If the

network has Internet access, try connecting to the Internet over a wireless connection.

●

Verify that the encryption method (AES or TKIP) is the same for the printer as it is for the wireless access

point (on networks using WPA security).

●

Verify that the printer is within the range of the wireless network. For most networks, the printer must be

within 30 m (100 ft) of the wireless access point (wireless router).

●

Verify that obstacles do not block the wireless signal. Remove any large metal objects between the access

point and the printer. Make sure poles, walls, or support columns containing metal or concrete do not

separate the printer and wireless access point.

●

Verify that the printer is located away from electronic devices that might interfere with the wireless signal.

Many devices can interfere with the wireless signal including motors, cordless phones, security system

cameras, other wireless networks, and some Bluetooth devices.
