Some HP printers offer wireless services that interfere with the campus wireless network. Here's how to turn this service off to protect wireless functioning in your area.
For most HP models
Use the menu to navigate to Setup, then Network, then Wireless Radio (on some models, this is towards the bottom of the scrollable menu). Turn the Wireless Radio OFF.
For HP Photosmart d110
Some models may allow you to press the blue "wireless" button on the bottom front of the printer to turn the light out and service off. You may need to hold the button for 5 seconds to turn the light out.
If this is not successful, use the menu to navigate to Settings > Wireless > Wireless settings > Disable Wireless > OK
For HP Laserjet p1102w
Press and hold the "wireless" image button on the left-hand button panel for 5 seconds to turn the light out and service off.
For HP Photosmart c4780
From the front panel, choose "Scan". Scroll up or down to find Networking. Select this, then turn off Wireless.
If wireless indicator persists
Shut the printer down. Then, hold the "wireless" and "cancel" buttons together while powering the printer back on. Wait for all the lights to flash together and then let the buttons go.
