The information you supplied regarding selecting the printer in the settings of my phone made ALL the difference! I can't thank you enough. I've been trying to connect my printer to my phone for almost 3 hours and finally realized I needed to check UA-cam. Your video was invaluable and seriously, THANK YOU for taking the time to go through each step.
Thank You! I changed my wifi provider and couldn't figure out how to change the wifi. Hard to believe that I would have to re-add my printer to my hp account. I really appreciate your videos!
i've been trying to connect my printer with my wifi and laptop for the last 4 days. This was very helpful! glad i found this video and thank you for the help!
Same for me, took four days to finally set it up. That was a year ago and now I have to set it up again because we moved. Your video will make it simple this time. Thank you kindly!
I tried setting this thing up to my wifi using my android phone 2.5 years ago, I gave up! Now I'm attempting it again! I began earlier and kept at it for 45 minutes thinking it would be seamless because, "why wouldn't it!?" Then the memories of boundless frustration and four-letter words rushed to the surface of my brain and I thought, "... wait... I REMEMBER THIS BEING A PAIN IN THE ASS NOW!!" So... I'm commenting now BEFORE I view this video to see if his directions will lead me to success! Will update if it comes together!
I felt this comment in my soul! I'm 37 years old; my childhood and adolescence was molded by emerging technology to the point that I didn't need to read instructions on how to setup and navigate "simple" gadgets. But this thing... I felt like I was a member of Apollo 13 trying to improvise a way back to Earth!

Thank you for this video. Only vid that helped me. I called and they wanted to charge me $20 for some tech support warranty. FUCK THAT BS. Simple UA-cam vid problem solved. This guys the GOAT. I hate this printer so bad
Huge thanks, this worked. For HP, their idiotic "Smart App" and their worst support site with drones of people posting copy-paste answers for their 10000 printer models all with different interfaces, please learn from this man's simple method. THANK YOU. The issue with my HP4155e is that it has a micro-display and no control panel. I also could not find an ethernet port on it to connect directly. Furthermore, I have an Eero WiFi device which does NOT allow WPS setup. So you can't just push two buttons to connect. The method shown in this video is great and works as follows: 1) When you push the two buttons on your printer as he says, it temporarily broadcasts a WiFi network (i.e., the printer's own WiFi, separate from your home WiFi). You will temporarily see a new network alongside your home WiFi like "HP ". The phone HP App then connects to that printer's WiFi and transmits it your home WiFi's information, including the password which you type in. Then it disconnects the printer's WiFi and the printer hops onto your home WiFi. HP DOES NOT EXPLAIN ANY OF THIS!!
Good video. Got the same printer today and works fine. I wanted to know if you have any idea why the app connects it as a 4100e series and not a 4155e?
I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page. I'm happy to say I have yet to see this with this printer. The print quality has been fantastic so far, the set up was super easy. All in all I'm very happy with this printer.
Best advice, stay away from HP, zero customer support and forcing you to sign into an app to print is bullshit, forcing you to use wifi is bullshit. I have my printer usb connected to my computer and it's not recognized... It's a paperweight. To everyone who was stupid like me and bought it, sucks to be us.
Dang. Everyone thanking you. My issue is the app is not detecting my wifi despite me standing next to the modem
mine too

Struggled for 20 mins to connect and watching video was done in 2 mins!!! Thank u!!!
Glad it helped!
Amazing!! Even the actual HP UA-cam channel didn't give this great advice! Thank you!!
Thank You! I changed my wifi provider and couldn't figure out how to change the wifi. Hard to believe that I would have to re-add my printer to my hp account. I really appreciate your videos!
Lifesaver! This did the trick. Why does the HP website not have this information??? Thanks so much
Thank you man. I tried remembering how to setup my printer's wifi after moving and HP was of no help at all. Your video had it working within minutes.
Glad I could help
Fantastic. So much simpler than the instructions from HP. Thank you so very much for sharing.
i've been trying to connect my printer with my wifi and laptop for the last 4 days. This was very helpful! glad i found this video and thank you for the help!
I’m glad I am not the only one having issues with this piece of garbage. Last HP printer I will EVER buy! Their customer service is beyond terrible!

Thank you so much. I wasn't able to connect to the wifi but this video helped a lot.
Thank you so much, I had trouble setting up my WiFi direct and needed a solution. This cleared up everything, thanks again.
Thank you, thank you for helping me to reconnect my printer to the WIFI!!!
*It prints like no other **Bestt.Digital** printer. i have always loved Epson for the colors they produce.*
1:25 for me when I try to connect to the 4100 series, it does not connect. It just keeps on loading.
Plz move printer near the router
@@CopyPrintScanChannel Okay will do that.
Thank you for this video. Only vid that helped me. I called and they wanted to charge me $20 for some tech support warranty. FUCK THAT BS. Simple UA-cam vid problem solved. This guys the GOAT. I hate this printer so bad
Very clear instructions. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
It was a helpful clip. I wanted to know, you started with HP DeskJet 4155, and you have finished the set-up with HP 4100, instead of HP 4155?
Awesome!!! You made it so simple. Than You🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

Fantastic video, and eloquently articulated.
Good video. Got the same printer today and works fine. I wanted to know if you have any idea why the app connects it as a 4100e series and not a 4155e?
It shows series only but its basically same

Instructions on how to make copies
I used to use an Epson ET-2550 ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxciSwynMJ7PnUvvx11rewiu-yFBkZTl53 , an early model of the ink tank style. It worked well, but had one nuisance that drove me up the wall; if you didn't put it in high quality print mode you'd get a streak across the page.

I love you.
Thankyou 🤝
Cool
Can not hear u
help
The pamphlets in my box nor the hp chat assistance were nowhere near as clear as your instructions after an hour and 30 min of foolishness.
I knew this vid was gas when I heard that accent
By far the worst printer I’ve ever bought. Highly regret this purchase.
Best advice, stay away from HP, zero customer support and forcing you to sign into an app to print is bullshit, forcing you to use wifi is bullshit. I have my printer usb connected to my computer and it's not recognized... It's a paperweight. To everyone who was stupid like me and bought it, sucks to be us.
