HP Printer and RAX120
Hey All, So a few weeks ago I got the RAX120 Went to print something today via Wifi and noticed my printer wasn't connected. HP Laserjet Pro 200 (M251 I believe) Pretty sure its a wifi setting...

I had that problem too. I always setup my Laserjets with static IP's starting at .200 It took two printer reboots on two days in order for it to show them connected. They are always showing as being connected now. Don't know why they were showing up as not connected at first but are working fine for the last two weeks. Mine are wired.

I only use it when printing from my iPad and I have other ways around that.- NewfiedroolMar 23, 2020Virtuoso
Sometimes drivers need updating so worth checking if there's any for the printer.
insure TX is on in advanced settings on router.
Don't use 40ht on 2.4 as some printers don't like this, use 20ht if you are on 40ht.

I tried those settings just not and still nothing. And I had to manually reboot the router cause it must not have liked the change. The settings held but my WiFi went down.
I give up on this one. Its not super important. More of an incovience to me really.
