You are welcome.
The Full Feature Software is the full driver printer software for the printer.
HP App for Windows offers several means of printer access and support but may not offer the full range of features available in the printer software. Honestly, I don't use it except for test and occasional checks.
Assuming you have the Full Feature Software installed:
"Smart" is nice software - it takes very little space on your system - you can leave it for possible use or remove it.
