CANON MAXIFY 2120 PRINTER-how to type in new password for wifi?

dsdager

I moved and now my Canon Maxify 2120 printer is operating on the old wifi password and it won't connect to my new wifi system in my apartment. I don't see any place at all either in my computer or on the printer to type in the new password for the wifi so that the printer will connect to the network and work on wifi again.

Can someone tell me how to get the printer connected to the wifi using the new password? How do I tell the printer what my new password is for the wifi system in this new apartment? I am using a Macbook Pro with Sonoma 14.6.1.

Thank you,

donna

I have the same problem, had to replace the router and now it doesn’t ask for password. Have you figured it out? 

No I just gave up and attached a cable I'm so disgusted with the whole thing. At least it prints but now wifi doesn't work at all have to use a usb cable and that is extremely inconvenient. sucks!

All of the above.  Except now I'm giving it another try with the same results.  iOS and MacOS, I've configured routers to have a reserved IP address, I've entered IPv4 and 6 addresses exactly.  I've used "other" network to manually enter the Wifi password.  I will not resort to the cable again; it must print over Wifi.
