Hi @2D0nkeydr0ps,
Welcome to the HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query. I will be glad to help you.
I understand you want to enable Print Anywhere on your HP ENVY 6420e All-in-One Printer (instead of using Private Printing). Follow these steps using the HP Smart app:
How to Enable Print Anywhere
- Open the HP Smart App on your Windows 11 PC or mobile device.
- Sign in with your HP account (required for HP+ features).
- Click your account icon (top right corner) or your initials.
- Select Manage HP Account.
- Under your Account Dashboard, go to Solutions > Print Anywhere.
- Under My Printers, make sure:
- “Allow printing from anywhere” is enabled.
- “Require Private Pickup” is disabled (this is what you're trying to turn off).
What Is Private Pickup?
- Private Pickup is an optional feature that holds print jobs until you're near the printer.
- Disabling it allows your print jobs to print immediately, which is the standard Print Anywhere behavior.

I hope this helps.
Take care, and have an amazing day!
