The printables are asking for a proxy address and port how do I find this information as I use the printables. If it makes any difference my computers internet does not work so I have to use it on eathernet. I do have another laptop but would need to figure out how to find it and also find the charger 🤣. Is there an easier way of fixing this?

You can access Printables using your web browser -- yes, the browser needs access to the Internet.

 

Two ways to try “HP Printables” (Replacement for Print Apps)

 

Open HP Smart Windows or HP Smart Mobile application

Click on the tile for Printables

 

Or

>>> Open your browser and open the HP Printables Website

 

Select your category

Select / Click on a project for adults, children, learning, fun...

See what is available...

Print your choice...

 

One example - Art Therapy

So is there no way of getting it to work on the printer screen then as that would be handy.

Likely source of the issue can be fixed, though it would require that your Ethernet connected printer (wired connection between printer and router) be working (connecting the printer to your network) and able to connect the printer to the Internet.

 

From your description, for some reason your printer connection is perhaps broken, not available, not working, not used.

 

  • Check Web Services
  • Restart everything, including the router that controls the network
  • Take a look at the Troubleshooting document

 

Open your favorite browser > type / enter Printer IP address into URL / Address bar

Tab Web Services > Summary

 

Example - EWS - Web Services
