HP DeskJet 3700 printer/scanner issue

[Jacob Pertou]

I just happened to re-install my HP Deskjet 3630, after reinstalling LL5.2. It was very annoying, but my printer looks similar to yours, so maybe I can help.

First I printed out a network configuration page by pressing down both the network and information buttons on the printer, at the same time.

Then I activated the Wi-fi network for the printer. My network is called "DIRECT-A9-HP Deskjet 3630 series". The password is found on the print-out.

In "Printers" I chose "Add" => "Printer"

Under Select Device => Network Printer =>Find Network Printer => Internet Printing Protocol

Under Enter device URI I added the link from the print-out, found in the section "Wi-Fi Direct". Something like this: https://123.456.789.0
Then press forward.


 


Find HP on the list


 


Then your printer, and the "hpcups" option in the right hand side of the window

Then you can name the printer:


 


Then "Apply", and you should be able to print a test page.

When using simple-scan, make sure you choose the SSL option.
