Step 1: Prepare Your Printer and Wi-Fi Network
Before you begin, ensure that your printer is powered on and that your Wi-Fi network is up and running. Gather the network name (SSID) and password for your Wi-Fi connection.
Step 2: Access the Printer’s Control Panel
Locate the control panel on your HP DeskJet 2622 printer. Use the navigation buttons to navigate to the “Setup” or “Network” menu.

Within the “Setup” or “Network” menu, look for the option “Wireless Setup Wizard.” This will guide you through the process of connecting your printer to your Wi-Fi network.
Step 4: Choose Your Connection Method
The printer will present you with two connection methods: “WPS Push Button” or “Enter Network Name and Password.” Select the method that best suits your needs.
WPS Push Button
If your router supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup), you can use this method for a quick and easy connection. Press the WPS button on your printer and then on your router within two minutes.
Enter Network Name and Password
If you don’t have a WPS-enabled router, you’ll need to manually enter your network name (SSID) and password. Use the printer’s control panel to type in the required information.
Step 5: Confirm Connection
Once you’ve entered your network credentials, the printer will attempt to connect to the Wi-Fi network. You may see a progress bar or status message on the printer’s display.
Step 6: Print a Test Page
To verify that your printer is properly connected to the Wi-Fi network, print a test page. This will ensure that the printer is able to communicate with your computer or mobile device wirelessly.

If you encounter any issues during the connection process, try the following troubleshooting tips:
- Ensure that your printer is within range of your Wi-Fi router.
- Check if your Wi-Fi network is working properly by connecting another device.
