HP LaserJet M110w Setup Fastest When You Are Prepared with Printer, Wi-Fi Password, Phone or Computer.

This guide explains how to install, get the wireless internet in your HP LaserJet M110w printer, and software installation or troubleshooting of common setup questions.

The simplest way is to download the official HP Smart app. It walks you through the connecting gist wirelessly and installs all of the necessary printer software automatically.

What You Need Before Starting

Prepare the following items:

HP LaserJet M110w printer.
Power cable.
A stable wireless network.
Your Wi-Fi name and password.
Smartphone, tablet, or Windows / Mac PC.
USB wire — Use this if you want to go the wired route.

Important Network Note

Mainly, you will connect the HP LaserJet M110w to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network.

In the case where you have a router that combines 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands under one network name, it is possible for express printers to connect automatically.

Setup will fail and then detach your phone or computer from the 2.4 GHz band on a temporary basis if setup fails?

HP LaserJet M110w Installation in 5 Minutes

Step 1: Unbox Your Printer and Set It Up

Take the printer out of its packing.
Remove ALL protective tape and shipping material.
Access to your toner needs to be made, and any internal packaging also taken away.
If the toner cartridge is not already installed, install it.
Grab the power cable, connect it, and then switch on your printer.
You load a plain paper into the input tray.

In order to set up the connection, make sure you keep the printer close to your Wi-Fi router. After the connection is working, you can shift this to later.

Step 2: Install HP Smart App

Install HP Smart — Download the app from the official website of HP or a trusted app store on your device.
Do not download the printer software from any random third-party sites.
Get the HP LaserJet M110w driver from official source for safety and click your OS on HP Support page.

After the installation, launch HP Smart and log in or continue as a guest, depending on what options are available.

Step 3: Add the Printer

In HP Smart:

Click on Add Printer or click the plus.
Best Mini Laser Printer: HP LaserJet M110w.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
When prompted, provide the password for your Wi-Fi.
Allow the app to link the printer, hang tight.

The wireless light might flash while it determines a connection to the printer. To get to the plug, when connected first it should land properly and usually light up continuously.

Step 4: Finalize the Software Installed on Your Computer

The HP Smart printer driver might be installed automatically. Wait for the process to complete before submitting a print job.

If the printer doesn't show up, choose to add a new one and verify that:

The printer is powered on.
Your phone or your laptop is connected to that the same Wi-Fi.
Wi-Fi password has been correct.
The printer is within the router range.
However, disable VPN software while setting up.

Step 5: Print a Test Page

Post installation, you can print a test page from HP Smart or your PC printer settings. Verify that the sheet is clean and printer reacts promptly.

You are done with your wireless installation when printer is listed inside HP Smart and able to print via same network.

How to Connect HP LaserJet M110w to a New Wi-Fi?

The printer might need to be reconnected if the router, Wi-Fi name, or password was changed.

Open HP Smart on your PC or mobile device.
Select the printer.
Open Printer Settings or Open Network Settings.
Select the option to refresh or alter your wireless connection.
Complete the setup steps, and provide your new Wi-Fi password.

If HP Smart fails to detect the printer, reset its wireless settings and then repeat setup.

Resetting Wireless Settings

This button combination will vary depending on the console's firmware and region.

On HP routers, one way to reset them is by simultaneously pressing and holding the Wireless and Cancel buttons for a few seconds until the wireless light begins blinking. This places the printer back in wireless setup mode.

If that fails, review the HP Support (for M110w) page on restoring network defaults.

Always keep HP LaserJet M110w manual PDF handy as it is not going to go over every single button at one place in the lower level of detail.

Once you have reset the network, repeat the setup using HP Smart.

Connect the Printer Using a USB Cable

In certain configurations, the M110w can also be configured over USB.

Set Up HP M110w Printer Using a USB Connection

Get the official HP driver & software package.
On your computer, begin the install.
Select USB connection when prompted.
Only connect the USB cable when you're informed to do so by the installer!
Let Windows or macOS finish setting up the printer.
Print a test page.

USB setup is the most beneficial as this does help in case of wireless installation do not work and also when printer needs to be used on a single computer.

But USB continues to be a hurdle in that connecting by way of USB does not configure the printer for Wi-Fi printing.

The Wi-Fi setup must be done separately if you want to print from phones or more than one computer.

Flashing Blue Light Meaning?

Typically, a blue blinking wireless light on the printer indicates that it is:

Searching for a wireless network.
Connecting to the router.
Waiting for wireless setup.
Experiencing a connection problem.

If the light flashes for a few minutes in this case:

Restart the printer and router.
Make sure Wi-Fi password is correct.
The printer could be placed far from the route, so first thing to try is moving it.
Ensure your device is on same network.
Reset the wireless settings, Execute HP Smart setup again.

A solid wireless light typically means the printer is connected.

Confidence: 100% The Paper-Size HP LaserJet M110w Only Supports the More-Prevalent 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi

The HP LaserJet M110w is made for use with 2.4 GHz wireless networks only.

A 5 GHz-only network may not be able to connect directly.

When the router you connected is broadcasting both bands, use 2.4 GHz network name in setup.

If the two bands have same name (SSID), look in router settings and temporarily separate them or you can also move your phone / computer to 2.4 GHz band only.

The official product documentation or model's manual PDF covers precise wireless specs.

Automotive Tip: Tips For a Less Painful Setup

For installation leave the printer next to the router.
Enter your Wi-Fi password exactly in the same way as you have written it, with capital letters and symbols.
Do not interrupt the printer while firmware or driver installation is running.
If you connect and disconnect after restarting the router, do some troubleshooting.
Cleanup Duplicate OR Old Printer Entries Windows or macOS.
When and wherever possible use the original HP software instead of generic drivers.
