       "will not" is not a useful problem description.  It does not say what
    you did.  It does not say what happened when you did it.  As usual,
    showing actual actions (commands) with their actual results (error
    messages, LED indicators, ...) can be more helpful than vague
    descriptions or interpretations.

       You seem to be trying to connect your mobile device directly to your
    printer, not your printer to your "the Orbi" (router).  'the network
    "HP-Print-74-Deskjet 2540 series"' is your printer; nothing to do with
    your router.

     

       You might want to exploit an under-appreciated resource:

     

          https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RTFM

     

       Visit hp.com , and get some documentation for your printer.  Read.
    Follow the installation instructions which you find there.
