HELLO, HOW CAN I FIND WHAT IS MY PRINTER EMAIL ADRESS?

2 REPLIES 2
HP Recommended

Your printer’s email address is part of HP ePrint. You can find it by: On the printer, tap the HP+ / HP ePrint / Web Services icon on the control panel screen. If Web Services are enabled, your printer’s email address will be shown there. If they’re not enabled, you’ll need to turn on Web Services first—the printer will then generate an email address for you. You can also see or manage the printer’s email from your HP Smart app or the HP Smart (123.hp.com) account you used when setting up the printer.

Apologies for jumping in unannounced.

 

Tech Spec -- HP Envy 6165e All-in-One Printer

Connectivity (facet)Apple AirPrint™; USB; Wireless (Wi-Fi®); Print Anywhere; WWCB (Works with Chromebook)

 

Although Print Anywhere shares some of the underlying structure of the old ePrint technology, Print Anywhere is a different service, including the way it is accessed (though the HP Smart / HP App application).

 

A video link is provided later in this message to help explain how to set up your printer to use Print Anywhere.

 

------------------------------------------------------------

IMPORTANT

 

This printer is an HP+ capable printer -

Print Anywhere is available when HP+ is enabled.

 

Be aware that enabling HP+ is free but does come with responsibilities on the part of HP and the customer (you).

Requirements for HP+ printers

 

This topic describes the requirements for HP+ printers.

 

NOTE: HP+ is only available in some countries/regions


Keep the printer connected to the Internet


HP+ printers are cloud-connected devices that must remain connected to the Internet in order to function. The
Internet connection enables the printer to deliver HP+ specific app features and firmware updates.


During setup, you must connect the printer to the Internet using a supported network connection. After setup, you can print using a USB cable connection, if desired, but the printer must still be connected to the Internet.


Use Original HP cartridges


Original HP cartridges are cartridges manufactured and sold by HP in official HP packaging. If non-Original HP supplies or refilled cartridges are installed, HP+ printers will not operate as expected.

What is "Free Ink"?

 

There is no extra cost for ink.

 

Ink is provided as part of your subscription - use a drop or use a cup full, ink is included at no extra cost.

 

Important

 

After the initial Ink Kit is mailed out, ink is sent (only) when the printer notifies the service that ink is depleted and a shipment is needed.

  • All ink activated by the plan and all ink sent to you works as along as the trail / subscription service is active.

and

  • Subscription / Instant Ink remains the property of HP and should be returned to HP at close (termination) of the service contract.

---------------------------------------------------------------

 

Who Benefits?

 

Instant Ink is an excellent service for those who print regularly, print high-density documents or artwork, or perhaps print lots of homework.  For example, those who benefit the most include Teachers, musicians, writers who like hard copy, large families, small business offices, community centers, churches, and others who love -- or need -- to print on paper.
