With wi-fi direct activated on my printer, the printer appears as an open wi-fi among the networks that can be selected on the computer. If I disable wi-fi direct, the computer finds the printer but not my iphone and ipad. I want to be able to print from iphone / ipad without the printer being a security hole for my local wi-fi. How can I solve this?

@Lotorp, Welcome to HP Support Community!

 

You have an option to print from your iOS devices by connecting the printer and your mobile devices to the home network. You can either use the AirPrint option or the HP Smart App to print from.

Refer to the documents below for help-

 

HP Printers - Printing from an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch

HP Printers - Install and Use the HP Smart App 

 

I hope that answers your concern adequately. Let me know!
