From my Mac, Control Center says "waiting to connect" to my HP printer.

USB Control Center is installed on my Mac. Control Center recognizes my HP printer but says "waiting to connect". All my other devices will connect (PC's). Any advice?

    Getting printers to work over wifi is often down to setting in the printer and how it does things to connect to the wifi. As you say, all your other devices will connect, so the router seems to be doing its thing.

     

    You might want to search here for HP printers. There have been several recent reports of problems caused by HP's way of going things.
