Is there any way to print from the HP Officejet 3830 without getting another wireless Internet connection? I purchased this printer because of the wireless printing features. I was told by the sales guy at the store that I would be able to print from my smartphone or tablet without a wireless internet connection? We run a small seasonal family business and wanted to do away with our landline phone and just transfer it to a cell phone which we did. Now we are having problems with reliable internet service because of our location and the office is inside a metal building which I keep getting told interfears with the wireless signal and router? Thank you!!

Hi,
You may print using WiFi direct, meaning by enabling wifi direct on the printer and connecting your device to the printer's network to print wirelessly without a router.
You may follow these steps to print using WiFi Direct:
