@srey911, Welcome to HP Support Community,
Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue
I’m really sorry you’ve had to deal with this much frustration 😤. I know how annoying it is when something that should be easy ends up taking hours. Don’t worry — Let’s just get your printer working again.
Refer printer's User manual for printer specific steps.
1. Reset the Printer’s Network Settings
- Turn off your printer.
- Press and hold the Wi-Fi button on the printer.
- While holding the Wi-Fi button, turn the printer back on.
- Keep holding the Wi-Fi button until the light blinks quickly, indicating that the network settings have been reset.
This clears any old Wi-Fi credentials, allowing you to reconfigure the printer for the new network.
2. Reconfigure Printer Wi-Fi Setup
- Press the Wi-Fi button on the printer again (it should blink rapidly if it’s not already connected).
- Use the printer’s control panel to reconnect it to your new Wi-Fi.
Alternatively, you can use the HP Smart app or the printer's web-based setup page (accessed via the printer's IP address) to connect the printer to Wi-Fi.
3. Check Your Router’s Compatibility
- Ensure that the Wi-Fi network is using the 2.4 GHz frequency, as the LaserJet P1102W may not be compatible with 5 GHz networks.
- If your new router is dual band (2.4 GHz and 5 GHz), make sure the printer is connecting to the correct band.
