Wi-Fi Direct is explained on page 88 of the User Manual, this Wi-Fi setup avoids configuring the router

 

you can bypass the router as long as you have not signed up for instant ink or any "plus" features

 

The default password for wifi-direct is 12345678. For more info, refer to - HP printer setup (Wi-Fi Direct)
