HP DeskJet printer 3632 in box, showing the Box front view.
Shows how to connect HP DeskJet 3632 to WiFi. Note that doing this will clear any WiFi settings on the DeskJet and connect it to a new WiFi network.
Connecting to new WiFi networks may become necessary after replacing a router / access point. This well definitely be the case if that new router has a different network name or password. You’d also do this when moving the 3632 to a different office or home location.
We assume that you have installed HP’s All-In-One (AiO) app and configured it on the device you normally print from. So we won’t delve into setting up that app here in this post.
Hard reset the 3632 by following the instructions in our How to Reset HP Printer, 3630 Series DeskJet article.
We’re running an iOS-based tablet here.
The app then comes up.
In our case, we had this 3632 connected previously. So it shows up at the top of the AiO Remote home screen.
But if you’re using a different mobile device, then skip the next step. Why? Because the app will immediately give you the opportunity to add a printer.
Note the red dot by the printer name, above the ink cartridge status indicator. This means that your tablet is unable to connect to the 3632 through the current WiFi network. So tapping this entry lets you select a different DeskJet.
Find this highlighted in the last picture. You then get the My Printer screen, as shown next.
Top right corner of screen. This brings up the Add Printer window, as pictured next.
This brings up the Agreements screen, as displayed next.
Check the I have reviewed and accept the agreements and settings check box. Then move on to the next step.
If you do not though, then close the app, without setting up the 3632.
This then brings up the Connect to Printer screen.
Find the Wi-Fi Settings as we see next. On the iPad, we pressed the Home button, ran the Settings app, and then tapped Wi-Fi settings.
So this action temporarily disconnects your tablet from your usual WiFi network. It then connects it to this temporary HP hotspot network that the 3632 creates.
Next, a screen such as the following then displays.
So the notification might disappear before you tap it. Indeed you only have a few seconds to poke it before it goes away. But if that happens, then just close the Wi-Fi Settings window. Then find the AiO Remote app on your Home screen as in step 2 above, and tap on that. Either way you choose, that app then displays the Connect Printer to Network screen.
In our case, we’re connecting our 3632 to the 937T681J4059H_2G network.
So tapping this network brings up the password entry screen.
Type the password into the field arrowed in the last picture, and then hit the Return or Go key. The 3632 then tries to connect to the network you chose earlier.
Then on the 3632, that light stops flashing and glows steadily once it successfully connects.
So back on the tablet, the Reconnect your iPad to your network screen displays.
But, we notice that sometimes, the Connecting screen in step 14 above does not disappear. So you might see this happen even after the 3632 itself connects to WiFi. So when this occurs, we simply minimize the AiO app with the Home key. Then we reopen it.
So go back to your tablet’s Wi-Fi settings screen. Then find your original wireless network and connect to it.
Note that this may happen automatically once your DeskJet connects. But if not, just do it manually.
Do this by closing the Wi-Fi Settings screen in the previous step (hit the Home key). Then, again, bringing up the HP AiO Remote app, as you did in step 2 above. If the AiO home screen does not appear, then press the Home icon in whatever AiO Remote screen is showing. So this should take you there.
So note the green status light beside the 3632. It means that the printer is indeed online now.
At last, your HP 3632 is now ready to print from your mobile device.
