Welcome to the HP English Community --

 

Assuming the iPhone is running a compatible version of iOS and that the printer and the iPhone are on the same network, the wireless connection is supported on either 2.4GHz or 5GHz (not at the same time).

 

=====================================

What else?

 

Should all else fail, you can try using Wi-Fi Direct -

Wi-Fi Direct uses your printer's wireless radio to connect to your wireless device (iPhone).

At the least, HP Smart -- and possibly AirPrint --  might work with Wi-Fi Direct.

References: 

HP printer setup (Wi-Fi Direct)

and

 HP Deskjet Plus 4155 | 4152 HP DeskJet 2752 | 2755 Connect to Wi-Fi network using Wi-Fi Direct metho...

 

And

 

Wi-Fi Direct is explained in your printer's user guide.

 

See section below Message Content References

OR 

Go to  Product Home - Printers > Category Setup & User Guides

 

=====================================

Start...

 

Consider connecting the iPhone and the Printer using AirPrint.

 

AirPrint is embedded in iOS -- if the connection can be made, chances are that AirPrint will work.

If you wish to try using AirPrint and need more information than what is provided next, scroll down to section

- Airprint –

OR

About Airprint

 

----------------------------------------------------------------

Start - AirPrint

 

If AirPrint does not work, the issue might be due to the printer's connection (or lack of connection) to your network.

 

AirPrint is built into your iOS device -- when it cannot connect (see the printer), look to how the printer is connected to your network.

 

For example,

The printer might have difficulty staying connected to a network in which you have not separated the 2.4GHz and the 5GHz SSID named networks. 

 

What?

Printers typically do not "jump" when (if) the network suddenly changes frequencies from one to another.  For example, the printer might drop off the network if the router changes from 5GHz to 2.4GHz.

 

If possible,

Assign a separate network name to each of the SSID named network frequencies you are running on your router.

 

Reminder

In General, most apps require that the printer and the device running the application are on the same network.

Example – EWS Setup – IPv4

 

EWS > HP Document / How-to (original format)

Use the HP printer Embedded Web Server (EWS)

NOTE:  Find printer IP address

Section Open the EWS over a local network orientation

 

 

Ethernet

Open your Browser > Type / enter the Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Network > Wired (802.3) > IPv4 Configuration

 

Wireless

Open your Browser > Type / enter the Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Network > Wireless (802.11) > IPv4 Configuration

As Available:

Tab Network > Wireless (802.11) > Advanced

Network Interface on / off, Network SSID name, Security Settings, Passphrase / Password

Select and connect to the correct SSID / network name for the bandwidth you are using.

 

Note:   It is not mandatory that you use a manual / static IP address.  Doing so can improve stability.
