HP printers do not have a Wi-Fi password themselves; instead, they connect to your Wi-Fi network, which has a Wi-Fi password. If you need to change the Wi-Fi network your HP printer is connected to or update the Wi-Fi password on the printer, you can do so through the printer’s control panel or software on your computer. Here are the general steps to set up or update the Wi-Fi network and password on an HP printer:

Step 1: Access the Control Panel

  1. Turn on your HP printer.
  2. Use the printer’s control panel to navigate to the wireless or network settings. The exact steps may vary depending on your specific HP printer model.

Step 2: Connect to a New Wi-Fi Network

  1. In the wireless settings on the control panel, select the option to connect to a new Wi-Fi network.
  2. Choose your Wi-Fi network from the list of available networks.
  3. Enter the new Wi-Fi network password when prompted.
  4. The printer will attempt to connect to the new Wi-Fi network.

Step 3: Update Wi-Fi Password

If you only need to update the Wi-Fi password without changing the network, follow these steps:

  1. Access the printer’s control panel and navigate to the wireless or network settings.
  2. Select the option to update the Wi-Fi password.
  3. Enter the new Wi-Fi password when prompted.
  4. Save the changes.

Step 4: Verify the Connection

After you’ve connected your printer to the new Wi-Fi network or updated the password, verify that the printer is successfully connected by printing a test page or checking the wireless settings on the control panel.

If your printer model has a touchscreen, the on-screen prompts will guide you through the process. If your printer doesn’t have a touchscreen, consult the user manual for your specific model for detailed instructions on updating the Wi-Fi network and password.

Please note that it’s important to have your Wi-Fi network name (SSID) and password available during this process. If you encounter any difficulties during the setup, refer to your printer’s user manual or contact HP support for model-specific guidance.
