Hi Okpat,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I see that you are no longer able to print from your iPads to your Photosmart 5520 printer.

 

I’m presuming that you are printing from your iPads using the wireless direct network broadcast from the printer. In your User Guide on page 33, in the section titled “To connect wirelessly to the printer without a router” it explains how to get the wireless direct password.
