If you are using the wireless printer, then it is just that you come across some technical issues, a lot can go wrong between router configurations, automatic Wi-Fi network connections or a printer related software updates on user devices. If you are also the victim of problems with HP printer, then go with the following steps mentioned below or contact our HP Helpline for quite immediate help.

Always Try to Start the Printer with a Restart:

Restarting is probably the most common method that can be applied to fix a wide a range of problems, including ones with wireless printers. It gives code execution with routers the chance to restart, while also killing any sort of program that might be the cause of damaging memory. Either your printer has worked on your network or not, performing a restart should be the first step.

Diving into More Technical Matters:

Despite restarting, you can also perform the next thing that tests the connection between the printer and the network. On most of the HP printers, you can do this by pressing the wireless button to print a Wireless Network Test report. Here you need to pay attention to the points mentioned below-

     ·        In HP printers, there should be an area labeled connectivity, here if you see the word “PASS” in this field, then a connection exists. If it does not happen when the printer is not connected to a network properly. Here you need to check router configurations and try to connect the printer again from the start.

     ·        You will find that the Current Configuration area has a field that is known as Network Name (SSID) which should comprise the name of your wireless network. If you do not find any such name, not, then directly connect to the HP Printer Customer Care, where you will have instant support from the experts

     ·        Verify if you find any error message, it can be possible the error message may provide more information that could explain why the printer has stopped responding working with the network 

VPNs and IP addresses:

VPNs are important to the network security and ensuring high-quality remote connections, but they are not always good with wireless printer configurations. Here most of the chances are that if you have an active VPN, it may need to be temporarily disabled so that you can print wirelessly. Here with IP addresses, any printer with a dynamic IP address could have its address changed, that can be the cause of interruption between it and other devices on the network. On Microsoft Windows, you can easily run the Update IP Address utility to troubleshoot changes in IP addresses on your printer, or, if it's not available for your model then you need to try HP Print and Scan Doctor.  If you are working on Mac then the issue can fix by removing and re-adding the printer in System Preferences.

On any other operating system, setting up a static IP address may be your best long-term bet for heading off IP addresses at the pass. This can usually be done in several simple steps:

      ·        Here you need to print out Wireless Network Test report and Network Configuration page as well so that you can easily compare the IP addresses of your printer and network gateway

      ·        The printouts could also give you the information either a network connection is even present or not

      ·        Try to type the printer's IP address into a Web browser on your computer device to access its internal settings

      ·        Then you need to find the appropriate menu for changing IPv4 settings on your printer

      ·        After this set an IP address manually and makes sure that it is within your router's DHCP range.

      ·        You can also use the router's IP address as both the gateway address and first DNS field

      ·        At the end, you need to restart both your router and your printer driver
