The type of network does not make a difference. What matters is connecting to the printer. Do you know what IP address the printer was assigned? Do you know if it supports IPP (Internet Printing Protocol)? The printer manual should tell you what it supports.
I couldn't find in the manual if it supports IPP. But I could print some information about the wireless connection:
I got e.g.

SSID : WIFI_A6
Hostname : HP53246F

IP4
 IP-address : 192.168.1.6

I have already tried to get some connection with the printer settings gui but I got no connection.

How did you try to connect to the printer? http://192.168.1.6? Or does your printer require another port? I can not tell for sure from the site, but from the requirements it sounds like it may be a win-printer. (The supplied software does some of the work instead of having it done in hardware in the printer.) The fact that you can not connect to a configuration GUI in the printer also tends to support this. But I do not have the manual, and I have not used this printer, so I do not know for sure.
