Sometimes, turning off devices and then turning them back on helps resolve network communication issues. If you still cannot connect, turn off the router, the printer, and the computer, and then turn them back on in this order: router first, then printer, and then computer.

Note: If the wireless connection cannot be made, the printer can also be connected to the network using an Ethernet cable.
