Can I print from my iPhone or laptop to printer  without 

Internet? I recently have been affected by hurricane  Ida in Southeast Louisiana we are out of power till the end of the month and there’s no Internet. My phone is on unlimited data. My printer is an H P Envy  5014 all in one

I have turned on Bluetooth smart I thought that would connect it but it just keeps saying connecting and then nothing happened.

If you mean by "but have hotspot?" that you do have a working Hotspot,

Sure, try that.

Advice from @rebelhead 

I am replying to this because we cant be the only ones having this problem, but after research I figured out that u must select privacy separator to off using the web UI for your hotspot.  Apparently it is meant to keep devices from connecting to each other on the network.  It took me a week to figure this out. LOL  Anyways, printer works great now.

Welcome to the HP Community.

 

I am so sorry you are stuck in such dire conditions.

Fire on our side of the country - Wind, too much rain, and catastrophic damage on your side...

Tough times... Hang in there.

You cannot run this printer without power. 

There are "mobile" battery operated printers. 

The Envy 5000 is not a mobile printer.

 

What about connection?

If you have power for the printer,

You might be able to connect printer with WiFi Direct - wireless without the use of a router.

 

Open and read:

Envy 5000 User Guide 

Starting on Page 46

 

More difficult reading on a tiny phone screen - but might be helpful:

Wireless printing center  > Printer Setup > Wi-Fi Direct

 

Side Bar:

The reason the Bluetooth is not helping is because the printer is not actually Bluetooth capable - Bluetooth is used by the mobile device to help with the initial connection to the printer.
