HP OFFICE JET 4630 printer: HP officejet all-in-one 4630

Printer HP 4630 will sleep (extended) every time I have stop printing for about 10 minutes.  When I try to print a different document/photo I have to press the power button to wake it up.  I then have to close the wireless connection, and then reconnect the wireless connection using the printer menu.

How can I stop the printer to go into hibernation?  I like to keep the printer on 24/7, unless I turn it off.  In other words, make a 'real' power button power button.  How am I susposed to print from my laptop currencies if I continue to go to the printer to wake up from hibernation and reset the wireless connection?

I hope someone can resolve this issure for me!  Thank you...

Hi @hlpmeplz,

If I understand your description your printer will not wake up or answer when you send a print job, unless you turn off and turn back on again. It seems to me that the problem is with the wireless connection. When you turn off the printer, and the back is re-establish the connection. We will set a static IP address and see if that fixes the problem so.

There is no option to turn off the sleep function, you can change the time it takes to fall into the mode "sleep", but not turn it off. Instead, please use the following document to assign the printer a static IP address: 4630 Officejet HP and HP Deskjet Ink Advantage 4640 e-all-in-one printer series - printer does not maintain the wireless connection. Simply scroll three Solution: the printer of the assign a static IP address.  If the problem persists, start at the top of the document that the solutions presented relate to connection problems.

Please let me know if that solves the problem by marking this post as an acceptable Solution. If you need more assistance let me know and I will gladly do whatever I can to help. Thank you.
