Hi @MKB70 

 

Welcome to HP Support Community.

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

 

To connect your HP OfficeJet Pro 6968 printer and scanner to your Amazon Fire tablet, you can follow these steps to set up the connection. Since Amazon Fire tablets run a customized version of Android, you can use HP’s official printing app or connect directly via Wi-Fi for printing and scanning functionality.

Option 1: Using the HP Smart App (Recommended)

HP offers the HP Smart app (formerly known as HP All-in-One Printer Remote), which you can use to set up, print, scan, and manage your HP printer from your tablet.

Steps to connect your HP OfficeJet Pro 6968 using HP Smart:

  1. Install the HP Smart App:
    • On your Amazon Fire tablet, go to the Amazon Appstore.
    • Search for HP Smart and install the app.
      • Alternatively, you can also use Amazon's APK side-loading process if HP Smart isn't available in the app store (you can download the APK file directly from HP’s official website or third-party sites like APKMirror).
  2. Connect the Printer to Wi-Fi:
    • Ensure your HP OfficeJet Pro 6968 is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Amazon Fire tablet. You can set up the Wi-Fi connection on your printer using the printer’s touchscreen panel:
      • On the printer, go to Setup > Network > Wireless Setup Wizard.
      • Follow the prompts to connect the printer to your Wi-Fi network.
  3. Set Up the Printer in HP Smart:
    • Open the HP Smart app on your Fire tablet.
    • The app will guide you through adding your printer. It will detect your printer on the same Wi-Fi network.
    • Tap on Add Printer when the HP Smart app detects your printer.
    • Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the setup process.

 

I hope this helps.

 

Take care and have a good day.
