Q: Wireless printing connection not working.
How do I hook into wireless mode with HP Laser Jet P1102W? I am running OS 10.9.2 on my Mac.

As far as I know, no driver update was required from 10.9 to 10.9.2.
Your specific model isn't listed here:

so I guess it is either very new or it uses the P1100 driver?
The way drivers work now is HP gives drivers to Apple, and Apple puts them on their servers for automatic download.
You can download the entire library of HP drivers from Apple here, and skip the auto-download errors:

It is not unusual to require Reset Printing System to get the Mac print subsystem (CUPS) working correctly:

If all these software/driver-related things don't help, then maybe your printer hasn't joined the local network. You should use HP's guide to ensure it has, and confirm by printing a printer self-test page which will show network config.
