I'm not sure what you're asking for. If you want to print from your iphone or ipad directly to the printer you will need to use Wi-fi direct. Go to the printer you want to connect to get a network report and look for it's WiFi direct name and password

 

for example

LANSTATUSIP addressSSIDPassword
WiFienabled192.168.1.15ATT-ARRIS-2 .4GuessAgain
WiFi-directenabled192.168.23.1DIRECT-WHATEVERBadGuess
Wireddisabled   
USBdisabled   

 

WiFi direct is enabled, the SSID or name is DIRECT-WHATEVER and the printers password (if any) is "BadGuess"

 

On your iPhone or IPad bring up HP Smart, log into your HP account, and locate the SSID.  Enter the password. Some printers can have password checking disabled.  To print from the iPhone, if the printer's name is missing then touch the screen where it is empty to find it.

 

Is this what you wanted?
