Hi @Steffi0511,

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community! 

 

Thanks for reaching out about your query regarding HP ENVY Photo 6230 compatibility with HP Instant Ink and HP Smart!

We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.

 

Try these steps:

Check Network Connection:

  • Ensure that your printer is connected to the same network as your computer or mobile device. You may need to reconnect to the network using the printer's control panel.

Update Printer Firmware:

  • Make sure your printer’s firmware is up-to-date. You can download the latest firmware from HP's support website.

HP Smart Setup:

  • For connecting to HP Smart, download the HP Smart app on your phone or PC, and follow the setup instructions within the app.

HP Instant Ink Enrollment:

  • To enroll in HP Instant Ink, you’ll need to set up an account and register the printer at HP Instant Ink. Ensure the printer is connected to the internet for the registration process.

Restart Devices:

  • Sometimes a simple restart of your printer, router, and computer can resolve connectivity issues.
