I had a problem re-configuring an HP PSC 2510 photosmart all-in-one printer. I wanted to change the router that the printer was connected to.<\/p>\n

The stupid blue light on top of the printer wouldn’t come on, indicating that it was connected to the router via ethernet.<\/p>\n

The key turned out to be: unplug the printer for 2 full minutes<\/strong>. After that, when I turned it on, I got a network connection and could continue installation.<\/p>\n

Full instructions for configuring the printer on a wireless network:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Unplug printer for 2 minutes<\/li>\n
  2. Plug printer into router via ethernet<\/li>\n
  3. Turn on printer and wait for blue light<\/li>\n
  4. Install HP software. Note that it takes 30 minutes<\/li>\n
  5. The printer will eventually be assigned an IP address. It might take 2 full minutes longer than you think it should. Go to the Network setting on the printer and print out the network configuration<\/li>\n
  6. On the computer, go to http:\/\/nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn to set the SSID, WEP, etc.<\/li>\n
  7. Disconnect the printer from the router.<\/li>\n
  8. The printer’s blue light will turn off. It might take another 2 minutes for the light to come back on. If it doesn’t, check the network settings on the printer to make sure that the radio is on.<\/li>\n
  9. Revel in the wirelessness of it all.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
