You're welcome and thanks fo replying with the information. 

 

Based on the information, the printer is connected to the network and works fine. You would like to print from your Android phone to your printer. Not to worry it is pretty simple by using our HP AiO Printer Remote App. With the HP All-in-One (AiO) Printer Remote app, you can set up your printer on a wireless network. You can also print, scan, and troubleshoot printer issues.

 

The link provided above gives you all details of the minimum system requirements to install that app and how it works. This is good for Apple OS also. In case you get an iPhone, the same app can be installed and used. 

 

Hope this information helps. Please feel free to keep me posted for any questions. All the best! 🙂

May I know what do you mean preferred printer name? If you could elaborate on this then I'll be glad to assist you further. 

 

Please reply with the following details:

  • What are you trying to do with the printer?
