What is a mobile connector url

Hi @NBrownG,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.

 

A mobile connector URL is a web address used to connect a mobile device to a specific service or application. In the context of HP printers and devices, it typically refers to a URL that allows you to connect your mobile device to your printer for tasks such as printing, scanning, or managing printer settings through a mobile app.

Here’s how you might use a mobile connector URL in different scenarios:

1. Connecting Your Printer to a Mobile Device:

When setting up your HP printer to work with your mobile device, you may need to visit a specific URL to download an app or complete the setup process. For example:

  • HP Smart App: This app allows you to print, scan, and manage your HP printer from your mobile device. The mobile connector URL for the HP Smart app is usually provided in the printer's setup instructions or user manual.

2. HP Smart App:

To connect your HP printer to your mobile device, you can use the HP Smart app, which is available for both iOS and Android devices. Here’s how to get started:

Download the HP Smart App:

Set Up the Printer:

  • Open the HP Smart app on your mobile device.
  • Follow the on-screen instructions to add your printer.
  • You might need to enter the printer’s IP address or scan a QR code provided by the printer.

3. HP ePrint Service:

HP ePrint allows you to print by sending an email to your printer’s unique email address. This service can also be set up and managed via a web URL.

  • HP ePrint Center: HP ePrint Center (This service might be retired, and newer printers use the HP Smart app for similar functionality.)

4. Wi-Fi Direct:

Some HP printers support Wi-Fi Direct, which allows you to connect your mobile device directly to the printer without needing a router.

  • Using Wi-Fi Direct:
    • Enable Wi-Fi Direct on your printer (usually found in the printer’s wireless settings menu).
    • On your mobile device, go to Wi-Fi settings and select your printer’s Wi-Fi Direct network.
    • Enter the password if prompted (found in the printer’s settings or user manual).

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
