How to change network connected to printer

I want to AirPrint from IPad to printer but the network on my printer is not the same. I had changed my password on my Wi-Fi for my ipad. How do I change my printer Wi-Fi?

iPad, iPadOS 15

Hi,


It would help to know the exact printer model.


Is the iPad connected to a Wi-Fi router? Often, a router offers a WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) method with a push button or a PIN code. Many printers can use this for an easier setup.


A connection via a Wi-Fi network provided by a router (infrastructure mode) is the normal way to print from an iPad. Do not confuse this with direct Wi-Fi (where the printer has its own network).
