Is there a cable or adapter that I can connect my iPhone to my printer? I don’t have Wi-Fi

@Kat82, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

There is no cable available for connecting the iPhone and printer.

However, you can try alternate printing methods that work even without WiFi.

 

Use Wi-Fi Direct if connecting through a local Wi-Fi network is not an option or for guest printing.

 

Connect and print from an Apple iPhone or iPad using Wi-Fi Direct.

 

 

The following steps temporarily disconnect your Apple device from the Internet. If you are printing web-based content such as emails, web pages, or cloud-based documents, open them before proceeding.

 

 

Learn how to print from an Apple iOS device to a Wi-Fi Direct capable HP printer without a wireless network on this link ( refer to the section Apple iPhones and iPads )

  1. Confirm the printer is turned on, cartridges are installed, and plain paper is loaded in the main tray.

  2. On the Apple device, open Settings, tap Wi-Fi and then tap the printer with DIRECT in the name (Example: DIRECT-72-HP Officejet Pro 6970) from the list of available networks.

  3. If prompted for a password, type 12345678. This is the default password to log in.

  4. Open the item you want to print, and then tap Print from the app or action menu.

  5. Select your printer from the list of available printers, and then tap Print.

Let me know the outcome.

Cheers 🙂
