@Jot7,

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

 

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

 

Yes, you can use your HP DeskJet 2800e printer without WiFi. Here are some ways to print without a wireless connection.

 

USB Connection (Best Option)

  • Connect your printer to your computer using a USB cable.
  • Download and install the latest drivers from HP’s website.
  • Select USB connection during setup.
  • Print as usual.

Direct Printing (Wi-Fi Direct)

If you don’t have a WiFi network but your printer supports Wi-Fi Direct, you can:

  • Turn on Wi-Fi Direct on the printer.
  • Connect your phone or computer directly to the printer’s Wi-Fi signal.
  • Print using the HP Smart app or built-in drivers.

Bluetooth (If Supported)

Some printers support Bluetooth printing. Check your printer settings to see if this is an option.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
