My Hp deskjet 2540 printer is connected wirelessly through my router to my Win 10 desktop pc. The printer was working fine until yesterday when I replaced my router with an upgraded model. The new router has a different password from the old one. The new router is working well and it fully supports a remote iPad working off it. But the printer does not work any longer.

 

Can someone please tell me how I change the settings on the printer so that it connects with the new router --- how do I tell the printer the new router password?

 

Thanks.   ... batpark
