Printer Problem

[PankySmooch]

Hi, just changed broadband suppliers, would my wireless printer automatically connect to new router or do I have to sync it to new router?

Your new router will have a new ID and password (you ARE password protected aren't you?) so you will need to connect it.

Thanks, do I have to do that through the printer?

The exact method of set-up varies between printers. It would help considerably if you'd tell us which printer you've got.

It's an Epson xp 212-213 series

You will need to sync it to the new router as it will have a new router name ans IP address

There's only a WIFi button on it which it says in the manual to press for 3 seconds but whenever I try to print from laptop, iPad or iPhone it says printer not found

You need to connect the printer to the router.

Press the WPS button on the router & then press the wifi button on the printer.

If that doesn't work, try it the other way round (printer then router).

This might help:

Thanks Dave, yes that's the one methyl

I used the method Dave suggested when I got a new router.

Thanks all, Daves method worked, well from my iPhone anyway, son will have to try his laptop in the morning to print his homework.

Whatever happened to pen and paper homework??
