Fixing connectivity issues
You may have picked the wrong network or typed in your network name (SSID) incorrectly
Check these settings to ensure that they are correct.
You may have typed in your WEP key or your WPA encryption key incorrectly.
•If you are using encryption on your network, you’ll need to enter a key. These are case- sensitive so be sure that it has been entered correctly.
• If the network name (SSID) or the WEP/WPA key are not found automatically during installation, and you don’t already know them, you can download the Network Diagnostic Utility, which can help you locate them.
•The Network Diagnostic Utility runs on computers with Windows XP SP3, Vista, or Windows 7 OS. The computer should also be wirelessly connected to your network. To download the Network Diagnostic Utility, go to: www.hp.com/go/wirelessprinting.
You may have a router problem.
