-- For those reading --

Print Anywhere is the HP App support for remote printing available on HP+ enabled printers and select non-HP+ printers.

 

Start here --

Premium Remote Print Feature -- Print Anywhere

 

“Print Anywhere” -- Supported on HP+ enabled Printers and select non-HP+ printers

 

  HP Printers - Print Anywhere with the HP App

 

If still using HP Smart - Windows

Watch Video >  How to use the Print Anywhere feature in the HP Smart App | HP Support

 

OR

  If using HP App (Mobile)

 Watch Video >  Use the Print Anywhere feature in the HP App 

 

====  ====  ====  ====  ====  ====

 

-- Possible Solution --

If you are the owner / manager of the HP Smart / HP Connected account that supports your printer for Print Anywhere

AND

If your printer and your phone are on the same (local) network

Then

Private Pickup should (should) be switched OFF

 

Check that the printer and the phone are connected to the same network.

 

 

 

-- What? --

Private Pickup cannot be switched OFF if the printer is connected to your Data Account instead of your local network.

 

 “HP Smart / HP Connected” Account - Printers, HP Instant Ink, HP+ / Print Anywhere

Management / Options

HP Smart / HP Connected

Note:  Website might take 1-10 seconds to open

Switch OFF Private Pickup
