Do not use USB for setup
Printers with a label covering the USB port must be set up with HP Smart and an Internet connection. After setup, you can print using a USB cable if needed, but the printer must also remain connected to the Internet.
Help and tips for Wi-Fi and connectivity
If the software is unable to find your printer during setup, check the following conditions to resolve the issue.
Potential Issue | Solution |
The printer Wi-Fi setup mode timed out | If the status light is not purple, the printer might not be in Wi-Fi setup mode. Restart setup mode: |
1. On the back of the printer, press and hold the Wi-Fi Reset button for 5 seconds and then release the button. The status light will pulse purple. | |
2. Wait for one minute. Close and reopen HP Smart, and then try connecting again. | |
Computer or mobile device too far from the printer | Move your computer or mobile device closer to the printer. Your device might be out of range of the printer’s Wi-Fi signal. |
A computer connected to a Virtual Private Network (VPN) or remote work network | Disconnect from a VPN before installing HP Smart software. You can’t install apps from the Microsoft Store when connected to a VPN. Connect to the VPN again after finishing the printer setup. Note: Consider your location and the security of the Wi-Fi network before disconnecting from a VPN. |
Wi-Fi turned off on computer (computer connected by ethernet) | If your computer is connected by Ethernet, turn on the computer’s Wi-Fi while setting up the printer. Disconnect the Ethernet cable temporarily to complete setup over Wi-Fi. |
Bluetooth and location services are turned off on your mobile device | If setting up with a mobile device, turn on Bluetooth and location services. This helps the software find your network and printer. Note: Your location is not being determined and no location information is being sent to HP as part of the setup process. |
