HP LaserJet Pro M15w — WiFi Button and 2.4 GHz Setup

The HP LaserJet Pro M15w is a small personal laser: USB plus WiFi, 2.4 GHz only, no Ethernet, no screen. Setup is the wireless button plus an information page — not a color LCD wizard.

The M15a is USB only. That URL redirects here — skip every WiFi step.

Wireless the way this model expects

  1. Hold the wireless button until it blinks
  2. Press the information button to print the network sheet (SSID, IP)
  3. Join your phone or PC to the same 2.4 GHz network — not 5 GHz, not guest WiFi
  4. Finish in HP Smart, or skip Smart and add a TCP/IP printer using the IP on that sheet

If HP Smart never lists it: Easy Start / discovery. Password rejected: invalid WPA passphrase.

Driver on Windows 11

Get the M15w package from support.hp.com. Windows’ generic driver prints but often drops the printer after sleep. Disable auto-off in the EWS (type the IP in a browser) if it vanishes every afternoon.

USB fallback

If WiFi will not hold, print over USB with the same HP driver. Do not run a second wireless installer on top — remove the broken WiFi queue first.

Toner and path

Cartridge is HP 18A. Pickup issues on the 150-sheet tray: pick motor stalled. Offline after it sleeps: printer offline.

Need it on WiFi?
