HP uses Bluetooth only for control and setup.  You cannot print using Bluetooth.  Your A646 has WiFi.

 

 

This explains how to set up wifi direct printing where you can print directly from your Android phone to the printer

Alternately, you can use the PictBridge Port as shown here

 

What is Pictbridge?

 

I do not know if your Samsung phone supports pictbridge or not you will have to find out.
